Philippians 2

1 If then [there be] any comfort in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of [the] Spirit, if any bowels and compassions,DBY — Philippians 2:1

2 fulfil my joy, that ye may think the same thing, having the same love, joined in soul, thinking one thing;DBY — Philippians 2:2

3 [let] nothing [be] in the spirit of strife or vain glory, but, in lowliness of mind, each esteeming the other as more excellent than themselves;DBY — Philippians 2:3

4 regarding not each his own [qualities], but each those of others also.DBY — Philippians 2:4

5 For let this mind be in you which [was] also in Christ Jesus;DBY — Philippians 2:5

6 who, subsisting in the form of God, did not esteem it an object of rapine to be on an equality with God;DBY — Philippians 2:6

7 but emptied himself, taking a bondman’s form, taking his place in [the] likeness of men;DBY — Philippians 2:7

8 and having been found in figure as a man, humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, and [that the] death of [the] cross.DBY — Philippians 2:8

9 Wherefore also God highly exalted him, and granted him a name, that which is above every name,DBY — Philippians 2:9

10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of heavenly and earthly and infernal [beings],DBY — Philippians 2:10

11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord to God [the] Father’s glory.DBY — Philippians 2:11

12 So that, my beloved, even as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much rather in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling,DBY — Philippians 2:12

13 for it is God who works in you both the willing and the working according to [his] good pleasure.DBY — Philippians 2:13

14 Do all things without murmurings and reasonings,DBY — Philippians 2:14

15 that ye may be harmless and simple, irreproachable children of God in the midst of a crooked and perverted generation; among whom ye appear as lights in [the] world,DBY — Philippians 2:15

16 holding forth [the] word of life, so as to be a boast for me in Christ’s day, that I have not run in vain nor laboured in vain.DBY — Philippians 2:16

17 But if also I am poured out as a libation on the sacrifice and ministration of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice in common with you all.DBY — Philippians 2:17

18 In like manner do *ye* also rejoice, and rejoice with me.DBY — Philippians 2:18

19 But I hope in [the] Lord Jesus to send Timotheus to you shortly, that *I* also may be refreshed, knowing how ye get on.DBY — Philippians 2:19

20 For I have no one like-minded who will care with genuine feeling how ye get on.DBY — Philippians 2:20

21 For all seek their own things, not the things of Jesus Christ.DBY — Philippians 2:21

22 But ye know the proof of him, that, as a child a father, he has served with me in the work of the glad tidings.DBY — Philippians 2:22

23 Him therefore I hope to send immediately, as soon as I shall see how it goes with me:DBY — Philippians 2:23

24 but I trust in [the] Lord that I myself also shall soon come;DBY — Philippians 2:24

25 but I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow-workman and fellow-soldier, but your messenger and minister to my need,DBY — Philippians 2:25

26 since he had a longing desire after you all, and was distressed because ye had heard that he was sick;DBY — Philippians 2:26

27 for he was also sick close to death, but God had mercy on him, and not indeed on him alone, but also on me, that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow.DBY — Philippians 2:27

28 I have sent him therefore the more diligently, that seeing him ye might again rejoice, and that *I* might be the less sorrowful.DBY — Philippians 2:28

29 Receive him therefore in [the] Lord with all joy, and hold such in honour;DBY — Philippians 2:29

30 because for the sake of the work he drew near even to death, venturing his life that he might fill up what lacked in your ministration toward me.DBY — Philippians 2:30
