1 itaque fratres mei carissimi et desiderantissimi
gaudium meum et corona mea
sic state in Domino carissimi
2 Euhodiam rogo et Syntychen deprecor id ipsum sapere in Domino
3 etiam rogo et te germane conpar
adiuva illas quae mecum laboraverunt in evangelio
cum Clemente et ceteris adiutoribus meis
quorum nomina sunt in libro vitae
4 gaudete in Domino semper iterum dico gaudete
5 modestia vestra nota sit omnibus hominibus
Dominus prope
6 nihil solliciti sitis
sed in omni oratione et obsecratione cum gratiarum actione
petitiones vestrae innotescant apud Deum
7 et pax Dei quae exsuperat omnem sensum
custodiat corda vestra et intellegentias vestras in Christo Iesu
8 de cetero fratres quaecumque sunt vera
quaecumque pudica quaecumque iusta quaecumque sancta
quaecumque amabilia quaecumque bonae famae
si qua virtus si qua laus haec cogitate
9 quae et didicistis et accepistis et audistis et vidistis in me
haec agite et Deus pacis erit vobiscum
10 gavisus sum autem in Domino vehementer
quoniam tandem aliquando refloruistis pro me sentire
sicut et sentiebatis
occupati autem eratis
11 non quasi propter penuriam dico
ego enim didici in quibus sum sufficiens esse
12 scio et humiliari scio et abundare
ubique et in omnibus institutus sum
et satiari et esurire
et abundare et penuriam pati
13 omnia possum in eo qui me confortat
14 verumtamen bene fecistis communicantes tribulationi meae
15 scitis autem et vos Philippenses
quod in principio evangelii quando profectus sum a Macedonia
nulla mihi ecclesia communicavit in ratione dati et accepti nisi vos
soli
16 quia et Thessalonicam et semel et bis in usum mihi
misistis
17 non quia quaero datum
sed requiro fructum abundantem in rationem vestram
18 habeo autem omnia et abundo
repletus sum acceptis ab Epafrodito quae misistis
odorem suavitatis hostiam acceptam placentem Deo
19 Deus autem meus impleat omne desiderium vestrum
secundum divitias suas in gloria in Christo Iesu
20 Deo autem et Patri nostro gloria in saecula saeculorum amen
21 salutate omnem sanctum in Christo Iesu
salutant vos qui mecum sunt fratres
22 salutant vos omnes sancti
maxime autem qui de Caesaris domo sunt
23 gratia Domini Iesu Christi cum spiritu vestro
amen
EXPLICIT EPISTULA AD PHILIPPENSES1 Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved. 2 I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord. 3 And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life. 4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. 5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. 6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. 9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity. 11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. 12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. 14 Notwithstanding ye have well done, that ye did communicate with my affliction. 15 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only. 16 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity. 17 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account. 18 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God. 19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. 20 Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
21 Salute every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren which are with me greet you. 22 All the saints salute you, chiefly they that are of Caesar’s household. 23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
