11 Not that I speak [a]from need, for I have learned to be [b](A)content in whatever circumstances I am. 12 I know how to get along with little, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going (B)hungry, both of having abundance and (C)suffering need. 13 I can do all things [c]through Him who (D)strengthens me. 14 Nevertheless, you have done well to (E)share with me in my difficulty.

15 You yourselves also know, Philippians, that at the [d](F)first preaching of the gospel, after I left (G)Macedonia, no church (H)shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving except you alone; 16 for even in (I)Thessalonica you sent a gift more than once for my needs. 17 (J)Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek the [e]profit which increases to your account. 18 But I have received everything in full and have an abundance; I am [f]amply supplied, having received from (K)Epaphroditus [g]what you have sent, [h](L)a fragrant aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. 19 And (M)my God will supply [i]all your needs according to His (N)riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
