Philippians 4:14-18
English Standard Version
14 Yet it was kind of you (A)to share[a] my trouble. 15 And you Philippians yourselves know that (B)in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, (C)no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving, except you only. 16 Even in Thessalonica you sent me help for my needs once and again. 17 (D)Not that I seek the gift, but I seek (E)the fruit that increases to your credit.[b] 18 I have received full payment, and more. I am well supplied, (F)having received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent, (G)a fragrant offering, (H)a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God.

Philippians 4:14-18
New International Version
14 Yet it was good of you to share(A) in my troubles. 15 Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days(B) of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia,(C) not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only;(D) 16 for even when I was in Thessalonica,(E) you sent me aid more than once when I was in need.(F) 17 Not that I desire your gifts; what I desire is that more be credited to your account.(G) 18 I have received full payment and have more than enough. I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus(H) the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant(I) offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.
Philippians 4:14-18
King James Version
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.
