Προς Φιλιππησιους 4
1 ωστε αδελφοι μου αγαπητοι και επιποθητοι χαρα και στεφανος μου ουτως στηκετε εν κυριω αγαπητοι
Wherefore, my brethren, beloved and much desired, my joy and crown, so stand ye fast in the Lord, my beloved.
2 ευοδιαν παρακαλω και συντυχην παρακαλω το αυτο φρονειν εν κυριω
I exhort Euodia, and Syntyche to be perfectly united in the Lord.
3 ναι ερωτω και σε συζυγε γνησιε συλλαμβανου αυταις αιτινες εν τω ευαγγελιω συνηθλησαν μοι μετα και κλημεντος και των λοιπων συνεργων μου ων τα ονοματα εν βιβλω ζωης
And I entreat thee likewise, my faithful collegue, to assist them, for they laboured with me in the gospel, and Clement also, and my other fellow-laborers, whose names are in the book of life.
4 χαιρετε εν κυριω παντοτε παλιν ερω χαιρετε
Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say, Rejoice.
5 το επιεικες υμων γνωσθητω πασιν ανθρωποις ο κυριος εγγυς
Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.
6 μηδεν μεριμνατε αλλ εν παντι τη προσευχη και τη δεησει μετα ευχαριστιας τα αιτηματα υμων γνωριζεσθω προς τον θεον
Be anxious in nothing: but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known before God.
7 και η ειρηνη του θεου η υπερεχουσα παντα νουν φρουρησει τας καρδιας υμων και τα νοηματα υμων εν χριστω ιησου
And the peace of God, which surpasseth all understanding, shall guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
8 το λοιπον αδελφοι οσα εστιν αληθη οσα σεμνα οσα δικαια οσα αγνα οσα προσφιλη οσα ευφημα ει τις αρετη και ει τις επαινος ταυτα λογιζεσθε
Finally my brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are venerable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are friendly, whatever things are reputable, if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think of these things:
9 α και εμαθετε και παρελαβετε και ηκουσατε και ειδετε εν εμοι ταυτα πρασσετε και ο θεος της ειρηνης εσται μεθ υμων
and what ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these practise; and the God of peace will be with you.
10 εχαρην δε εν κυριω μεγαλως οτι ηδη ποτε ανεθαλετε το υπερ εμου φρονειν εφ ω και εφρονειτε ηκαιρεισθε δε
I rejoiced greatly in the Lord, that your care for me has now flourished again; for whom ye were indeed careful before, but ye wanted opportunity.
11 ουχ οτι καθ υστερησιν λεγω εγω γαρ εμαθον εν οις ειμι αυταρκης ειναι
Not that I speak on account of want; for I have learnt in whatever circumstances I am, to be contented.
12 οιδα και ταπεινουσθαι οιδα και περισσευειν εν παντι και εν πασιν μεμυημαι και χορταζεσθαι και πειναν και περισσευειν και υστερεισθαι
I know both how to be abased, and how to abound: in every place, and in all conditions I am instructed, both to be full and to be hungry, to abound and to be in want.
13 παντα ισχυω εν τω ενδυναμουντι με χριστω
I can do all things through Christ strengthening me.
14 πλην καλως εποιησατε συγκοινωνησαντες μου τη θλιψει
Nevertheless ye did well in communicating to the relief of my affliction.
15 οιδατε δε και υμεις φιλιππησιοι οτι εν αρχη του ευαγγελιου οτε εξηλθον απο μακεδονιας ουδεμια μοι εκκλησια εκοινωνησεν εις λογον δοσεως και ληψεως ει μη υμεις μονοι
And ye Philippians know, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I was departing from Macedonia, no church communicated to me on the score of giving and receiving, but you only.
16 οτι και εν θεσσαλονικη και απαξ και δις εις την χρειαν μοι επεμψατε
For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again to supply my wants.
17 ουχ οτι επιζητω το δομα αλλ επιζητω τον καρπον τον πλεοναζοντα εις λογον υμων
Not that I desire a gift, but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.
18 απεχω δε παντα και περισσευω πεπληρωμαι δεξαμενος παρα επαφροδιτου τα παρ υμων οσμην ευωδιας θυσιαν δεκτην ευαρεστον τω θεω
And indeed I have it all, and now abound: I am fully supplied, having received of Epaphroditus the things sent by you, a fragrant odor, an acceptable sacrifice, well-pleasing to God.
19 ο δε θεος μου πληρωσει πασαν χρειαν υμων κατα τον πλουτον αυτου εν δοξη εν χριστω ιησου
And my God will supply all your wants, according to his riches, in glory, by Christ Jesus.
Now to our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
21 ασπασασθε παντα αγιον εν χριστω ιησου ασπαζονται υμας οι συν εμοι αδελφοι
Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren that are with me salute you:
22 ασπαζονται υμας παντες οι αγιοι μαλιστα δε οι εκ της καισαρος οικιας
and all the saints here salute you, but especially those of Cesar's household.
23 η χαρις του κυριου ιησου χριστου μετα παντων υμων αμην
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
