腓立比书 4
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
4 我所亲爱所想念的弟兄们，你们就是我的喜乐，我的冠冕。我亲爱的弟兄，你们应当靠主站立得稳。
2 我劝尤阿迪娅和循都基要在主里同心。 3 我也求你这真实同负一轭的，帮助这两个女人；因为她们在福音上曾与我一同劳苦，还有革利免并其余和我一同做工的，他们的名字都在生命册上。
门徒当在主里喜乐
4 你们要靠主常常喜乐，我再说，你们要喜乐！ 5 当叫众人知道你们谦让的心。主已经近了。 6 应当一无挂虑，只要凡事借着祷告、祈求和感谢，将你们所要的告诉神。 7 神所赐出人意外的平安，必在基督耶稣里保守你们的心怀意念。
凡可称赞的都要思念
8 弟兄们，我还有未尽的话，凡是真实的、可敬的、公义的、清洁的、可爱的、有美名的，若有什么德行，若有什么称赞，这些事你们都要思念。 9 你们在我身上所学习的、所领受的、所听见的、所看见的，这些事你们都要去行，赐平安的神就必与你们同在。
无论什么景况都可知足
10 我靠主大大地喜乐，因为你们思念我的心如今又发生；你们向来就思念我，只是没得机会。 11 我并不是因缺乏说这话，我无论在什么景况都可以知足，这是我已经学会了。 12 我知道怎样处卑贱，也知道怎样处丰富，或饱足或饥饿，或有余或缺乏，随事随在，我都得了秘诀。 13 我靠着那加给我力量的，凡事都能做。 14 然而，你们和我同受患难原是美事。 15 腓立比人哪，你们也知道我初传福音，离了马其顿的时候，论到授受的事，除了你们以外并没有别的教会供给我。 16 就是我在帖撒罗尼迦，你们也一次两次地打发人供给我的需用。 17 我并不求什么馈送，所求的就是你们的果子渐渐增多，归在你们的账上。 18 但我样样都有，并且有余。我已经充足，因我从以巴弗提受了你们的馈送，当做极美的香气，为神所收纳所喜悦的祭物。 19 我的神必照他荣耀的丰富，在基督耶稣里使你们一切所需用的都充足。 20 愿荣耀归给我们的父神，直到永永远远！阿门。
21 请问在基督耶稣里的各位圣徒安。在我这里的众弟兄都问你们安。 22 众圣徒都问你们安。在恺撒家里的人特特地问你们安。
23 愿主耶稣基督的恩常在你们心里！
Philippians 4
New Century Version
What the Christians Are to Do
4 My dear brothers and sisters, I love you and want to see you. You bring me joy and make me proud of you, so stand strong in the Lord as I have told you.
2 I ask Euodia and Syntyche to agree in the Lord. 3 And I ask you, my faithful friend, to help these women. They served with me in telling the Good News, together with Clement and others who worked with me, whose names are written in the book of life.[a]
4 Be full of joy in the Lord always. I will say again, be full of joy.
5 Let everyone see that you are gentle and kind. The Lord is coming soon. 6 Do not worry about anything, but pray and ask God for everything you need, always giving thanks. 7 And God’s peace, which is so great we cannot understand it, will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Brothers and sisters, think about the things that are good and worthy of praise. Think about the things that are true and honorable and right and pure and beautiful and respected. 9 Do what you learned and received from me, what I told you, and what you saw me do. And the God who gives peace will be with you.
Paul Thanks the Christians
10 I am very happy in the Lord that you have shown your care for me again. You continued to care about me, but there was no way for you to show it. 11 I am not telling you this because I need anything. I have learned to be satisfied with the things I have and with everything that happens. 12 I know how to live when I am poor, and I know how to live when I have plenty. I have learned the secret of being happy at any time in everything that happens, when I have enough to eat and when I go hungry, when I have more than I need and when I do not have enough. 13 I can do all things through Christ, because he gives me strength.
14 But it was good that you helped me when I needed it. 15 You Philippians remember when I first preached the Good News there. When I left Macedonia, you were the only church that gave me help. 16 Several times you sent me things I needed when I was in Thessalonica. 17 Really, it is not that I want to receive gifts from you, but I want you to have the good that comes from giving. 18 And now I have everything, and more. I have all I need, because Epaphroditus brought your gift to me. It is like a sweet-smelling sacrifice offered to God, who accepts that sacrifice and is pleased with it. 19 My God will use his wonderful riches in Christ Jesus to give you everything you need. 20 Glory to our God and Father forever and ever! Amen.
21 Greet each of God’s people in Christ Jesus. Those who are with me send greetings to you. 22 All of God’s people greet you, particularly those from the palace of Caesar.
23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

Philippians 4
King James Version
4 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 always: 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.
