Philippians 4 📜 📕 ↷

Generosity of the Philippians

10 And I rejoiced in our Lord exceedingly, that once at the length you have reflourished to care for me, as you did also care: but you were occupied.📜💬📚

11 I speak not as it were for penury. For I have learned, to be content with the things that I have.📜💬📚

12 I know both to be brought low, I know also to abound: (every-where, and in all things I am instructed) both to be full, & to be hungry, both to abound, and to suffer penury.📜💬📚

13 I can all things in him that strengtheneth me.📜💬📚

14 Nevertheless you have done well, communicating to my tribulation.📜💬📚

15 And you also know, o Philippians, that in the beginning of the Gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no Church communicated unto me in the account of gift and receit, but you only:📜💬📚

16 For unto Thessalonica also, once and twice you sent to my use.📜💬📚

17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit abounding in your account.📜💬📚

18 But I have all things, and abound: I was filled after I received of Epaphroditus the things that you sent, an odour of sweetness, an acceptable host, pleasing God.📜💬📚
