Philippians 2:1
|
If there is therefore any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassions,
|
|
Philippians 2:2
|
make full my joy, that ye be of the same mind, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;
|
|
Philippians 2:3
|
[doing] nothing through faction or through vainglory, but in lowliness of mind each counting other better than himself;
|
|
Philippians 2:4
|
not looking each of you to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.
|
|
Philippians 2:5
|
Have this mind in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
|
|
Philippians 2:6
|
who, existing in the form of God, counted not the being on an equality with God a thing to be grasped,
|
|
Philippians 2:7
|
but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men;
|
|
Philippians 2:8
|
and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient [even] unto death, yea, the death of the cross.
|
|
Philippians 2:9
|
Wherefore also God highly exalted him, and gave unto him the name which is above every name;
|
|
Philippians 2:10
|
that in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of [things] in heaven and [things] on earth and [things] under the earth,
|
|
Philippians 2:11
|
and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
|
|
Philippians 2:12
|
So then, my beloved, even as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;
|
|
Philippians 2:13
|
for it is God who worketh in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure.
|
|
Philippians 2:14
|
Do all things without murmurings and questionings:
|
|
Philippians 2:15
|
that ye may become blameless and harmless, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom ye are seen as lights in the world,
|
|
Philippians 2:16
|
holding forth the word of life; that I may have whereof to glory in the day of Christ, that I did not run in vain neither labor in vain.
|
|
Philippians 2:17
|
Yea, and if I am offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all:
|
|
Philippians 2:18
|
and in the same manner do ye also joy, and rejoice with me.
|
|
Philippians 2:19
|
But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.
|
|
Philippians 2:20
|
For I have no man likeminded, who will care truly for your state.
|
|
Philippians 2:21
|
For they all seek their own, not the things of Jesus Christ.
|
|
Philippians 2:22
|
But ye know the proof of him, that, as a child [serveth] a father, [so] he served with me in furtherance of the gospel.
|
|
Philippians 2:23
|
Him therefore I hope to send forthwith, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me:
|
|
Philippians 2:24
|
but I trust in the Lord that I myself also shall come shortly.
|
|
Philippians 2:25
|
But I counted it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow-worker and fellow-soldier, and your messenger and minister to my need;
|
|
Philippians 2:26
|
since he longed after you all, and was sore troubled, because ye had heard that he was sick:
|
|
Philippians 2:27
|
for indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow.
|
|
Philippians 2:28
|
I have sent him therefore the more diligently, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
|
|
Philippians 2:29
|
Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy; and hold such in honor:
|
|
Philippians 2:30
|
because for the work of Christ he came nigh unto death, hazarding his life to supply that which was lacking in your service toward me.
