Revised Literal Translation

1ThereforeG5620, myG1473 brethrenG80 dearly belovedG27 andG2532 longed forG1973, myG1473 joyG5479 andG2532 crownG4735, soG3779 stand fastG4739 inG1722 the LordG2962, my dearly belovedG27.

2I beseechG3870 EuodiasG2136, andG2532 beseechG3870 SyntycheG4941, that theyG3588G846 be of the same mindG5426 inG1722 the LordG2962.

3AndG2532 I intreatG2065 theeG4771 alsoG2532, trueG1103 yokefellowG4805, helpG4815 those womenG846 whichG3748 labouredG4866 with meG1473 inG1722 the gospelG3588G2098, withG3326 ClementG2815 alsoG2532, andG2532 with otherG3062 myG1473 fellowlabourersG4904, whoseG3739 namesG3588G3686 are inG1722 the bookG976 of lifeG2222. 4RejoiceG5463 inG1722 the LordG2962 alwayG3842: and againG3825 I sayG2046, RejoiceG5463.

5LetG1097 yourG4771 moderationG1933 be knownG1097 untoG444 allG3956 menG444. The LordG3588G2962 is at handG1451. 6Be anxiousG3309 for nothingG3367; butG235 inG1722 every thingG3956 by prayerG3588G4335 andG2532 supplicationG3588G1162 withG3326 thanksgivingG2169 letG1107 yourG4771 requestsG3588G155 be made knownG1107 untoG4314 GodG3588G2316. 7AndG2532 the peaceG3588G1515 of GodG3588G2316, which passethG5242 allG3956 understandingG3563, shall guardG5432 yourG4771 heartsG3588G2588 andG2532 mindsG3588G3540 throughG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.

8FinallyG3063, brethrenG80, whatsoever thingsG3745 areG1510 trueG227, whatsoever thingsG3745 are honestG4586, whatsoever thingsG3745 are justG1342, whatsoever thingsG3745 are pureG53, whatsoever thingsG3745 are lovelyG4375, whatsoever thingsG3745 are of good reportG2163; ifG1487 there be anyG5100 virtueG703, andG2532 ifG1487 there be anyG5100 praiseG1868, think onG3049 these thingsG3778. 9Those thingsG3778, whichG3739 ye haveG3129 bothG2532 learnedG3129, andG2532 receivedG3880, andG2532 heardG191, andG2532 seenG3708 inG1722 meG1473, doG4238: andG2532 the GodG3588G2316 of peaceG3588G1515 shall beG1510 withG3326 youG4771.

10ButG1161 I rejoicedG5463 inG1722 the LordG2962 greatlyG3171, thatG3754 nowG2235 at the lastG4218 your careG5426 ofG5228 meG1473 hath flourishedG330 again; whereinG1909G3739 ye wereG5426 alsoG2532 carefulG5426, butG1161 ye lacked opportunityG170. 11NotG3756 thatG3754 I speakG3004 in respect ofG2596 wantG5304: forG1063 IG1473 have learnedG3129, inG1722 whatsoeverG3739 state I amG1510, therewith to beG1510 contentG842. 12I knowG1492 bothG2532 howG1492 to be abasedG5013, andG2532 I know howG1492 to aboundG4052: every whereG3956 andG2532 inG1722 all thingsG3956 I am instructedG3453 bothG2532 to be fullG5526 andG2532 to be hungryG3983, bothG2532 to aboundG4052 andG2532 to suffer needG5302. 13I can doG2480 all thingsG3956 throughG1722 ChristG5547 whichG3588 strengthenethG1743 meG1473. 14NotwithstandingG4133 ye haveG4160 wellG2573 doneG4160, that ye did communicateG4790 withG3588G2347 myG1473 afflictionG3588G2347.

15NowG1161 yeG4771 PhilippiansG5374 knowG1492 alsoG2532, thatG3754 inG1722 the beginningG746 of the gospelG3588G2098, whenG3753 I departedG1831 fromG575 MacedoniaG3109, noG3762 AssemblyG1577 communicated withG2841 meG1473 asG1519 concerningG3056 givingG1394 andG2532 receivingG3028, butG3361 yeG4771 onlyG3441. 16ForG3754 evenG2532 inG1722 ThessalonicaG2332 ye sentG3992 onceG530 andG2532 againG1364 untoG1519 myG1473 necessityG3588G5532. 17NotG3756 becauseG3754 I desireG1934 a giftG3588G1390: butG235 I desireG1934 fruitG3588G2590 that may aboundG4121 toG1519 yourG4771 accountG3056.

18ButG1161 I haveG568 allG3956, andG2532 aboundG4052: I am fullG4137, having receivedG1209 ofG3844 EpaphroditusG1891 the thingsG3588 which were sent fromG3844 youG4771, an odourG3744 of a sweet smellG2175, a sacrificeG2378 acceptableG1184, wellpleasingG2101 to GodG3588G2316. 19ButG1161 myG1473 GodG2316 shall supplyG4137 allG3956 yourG4771 needG5532 according toG2596 hisG846 richesG3588G4149 inG1722 gloryG1391 byG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.

20NowG1161 unto GodG2316 andG2532 ourG1473 FatherG3962 be gloryG3588G1391 forG1519 everG3588G165 and everG3588G165. AmenG281. 21SaluteG782 everyG3956 saintG40 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424. The brethren which areG80 withG4862 meG1473 greetG782 youG4771. 22AllG3956 the saintsG40 saluteG782 youG4771, chieflyG3122 they that areG3588 ofG1537 Caesar’sG2541 householdG3614. 23The graceG3588G5485 ofG3588G2962 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be withG3326 youG4771 allG3956. AmenG281.
