빌립보서 2
Korean Living Bible
그리스도의 사랑을 본받아
2 그리스도 안에서 여러분은 서로 격려하고 있습니까? 그리스도의 사랑으로 서 로 위로하며 성령으로 교제하고 있습니까? 그리고 서로 친절과 동정을 베풀고 있습니까?
2 그렇다면 한마음 한뜻으로 같은 사랑을 가지고 하나가 되어 내 기쁨을 충만하게 하십시오.
3 무슨 일이든지 다툼이나 허영으로 하지 말고 겸손한 마음으로 자기보다 남을 낫게 여기며
4 자기 이익만 생각하지 말고 남의 이익도 생각하십시오.
5 여러분은 그리스도 예수님과 같은 마음을 가지십시오.
6 그분은 원래 [a]하나님의 모습을 지니고 계셨지만 하나님과 동등하게 되려고 생각하지 않으시고
7 오히려 [b]자기의 모든 특권을 버리시고 종의 모습으로 사람들과 같이 되어
8 사람의 모양으로 나타나셨으며 자기를 낮추시고 십자가에 달려 죽기까지 순종하셨습니다.
9 그러므로 하나님은 그분을 최고로 높여 모든 이름 위에 뛰어난 이름을 주셔서
10 하늘과 땅과 땅 아래 있는 자들이 모두 예수님의 이름에 무릎을 꿇게 하시고
11 모든 사람이 예수 그리스도를 주님이라고 고백하여 하나님 아버지께 영광을 돌리게 하셨습니다.
12 사랑하는 여러분, 그러므로 여러분은 내가 그 곳에 있을 때뿐만 아니라 내가 없는 지금에도 더욱더 두렵고 떨리는 마음으로 여러분의 구원을 계속 이루어 가십시오.
13 하나님은 자기의 선한 목적에 따라 여러분이 자발적으로 행동하도록 여러분 안에서 일하십니다.
14 무슨 일이든지 불평이나 다툼으로 하지 마십시오.
15 그러면 삐뚤어지고 잘못된 세대 가운데서 여러분이 흠 없는 하나님의 자녀로서 깨끗하고 순수하게 살 수 있을 것이며 하늘의 별처럼 빛날 것입니다.
16 그렇게 되면 생명의 말씀을 밝히게 되어 내가 노력하고 수고한 일이 헛되지 않고 그리스도께서 다시 오실 때에 나에게 자랑할 것이 있을 것입니다.
17 여러분의 믿음의 제물과 봉사 위에 [c]내 생명의 피를 제사 술처럼 따라 붓는다고 해도 나는 기뻐하고 여러분 모두와 함께 기뻐할 것입니다.
18 그러므로 여러분도 기뻐하고 나와 함께 기뻐하십시오.
디모데와 에바브로디도
19 주 예수님이 원하신다면 나는 디모데를 여러분에게 속히 보내 여러분의 소식을 듣고 용기를 얻고자 합니다.
20 나와 같은 마음을 가지고 여러분을 진심으로 염려해 줄 사람은 디모데밖에 없습니다.
21 모두 자기 일은 열심히 하면서도 그리스도 예수님의 일에는 관심이 없습니다.
22 여러분이 디모데의 [d]훌륭한 인품을 알고 있겠지만 그는 자식이 아버지에게 하듯 기쁜 소식을 전하는 일에 나를 도와 수고하였습니다.
23 그러므로 형편되는 대로 그를 곧 여러분에게 보내는 것이 나의 바람입니다.
24 그리고 나도 곧 여러분에게 가게 되리라고 주님 안에서 확신합니다.
25 나는 에바브로디도를 여러분에게 보내는 것이 필요하다고 생각합니다. 그는 나의 형제요 동역자요 전우이며 나의 필수품을 공급해 주라고 여러분이 보낸 사자입니다.
26 그는 여러분 모두를 그리워하고 있으며 자기가 병든 것을 여러분이 알게 되었다고 걱정하고 있습니다.
27 그가 병들어 거의 죽게 되었으나 하나님이 그를 불쌍히 여기시고 또 나를 불쌍히 여기셔서 나에게 슬픔이 더 겹치지 않게 하셨습니다.
28 그래서 내가 서둘러 그를 돌려보냅니다. 여러분이 그를 다시 보게 되면 기뻐할 것이며 내 근심도 덜게 될 것입니다.
29 여러분은 주님 안에서 기쁨으로 그를 맞아들이고 또 그와 같은 사람들을 존경하십시오.
30 그는 멀리 있는 여러분을 대신해서 나를 도우려고 위험을 무릅쓰고 그리스도의 일을 하다가 죽을 뻔하기까지 한 사람입니다.
Philippians 2
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Imitating Christ’s Humility
2 If then there is any encouragement in Christ, any consolation from love, any sharing in the Spirit, any compassion and sympathy, 2 make my joy complete: be of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. 3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not to your own interests, but to the interests of others. 5 Let the same mind be in you that was[a] in Christ Jesus,
6 who, though he was in the form of God,
did not regard equality with God
as something to be exploited,
7 but emptied himself,
taking the form of a slave,
being born in human likeness.
And being found in human form,
8 he humbled himself
and became obedient to the point of death—
even death on a cross.
9 Therefore God also highly exalted him
and gave him the name
that is above every name,
10 so that at the name of Jesus
every knee should bend,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue should confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
Shining as Lights in the World
12 Therefore, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed me, not only in my presence, but much more now in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; 13 for it is God who is at work in you, enabling you both to will and to work for his good pleasure.
14 Do all things without murmuring and arguing, 15 so that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, in which you shine like stars in the world. 16 It is by your holding fast to the word of life that I can boast on the day of Christ that I did not run in vain or labour in vain. 17 But even if I am being poured out as a libation over the sacrifice and the offering of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you— 18 and in the same way you also must be glad and rejoice with me.
Timothy and Epaphroditus
19 I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, so that I may be cheered by news of you. 20 I have no one like him who will be genuinely concerned for your welfare. 21 All of them are seeking their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ. 22 But Timothy’s[b] worth you know, how like a son with a father he has served with me in the work of the gospel. 23 I hope therefore to send him as soon as I see how things go with me; 24 and I trust in the Lord that I will also come soon.
25 Still, I think it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus—my brother and co-worker and fellow-soldier, your messenger[c] and minister to my need; 26 for he has been longing for[d] all of you, and has been distressed because you heard that he was ill. 27 He was indeed so ill that he nearly died. But God had mercy on him, and not only on him but on me also, so that I would not have one sorrow after another. 28 I am the more eager to send him, therefore, in order that you may rejoice at seeing him again, and that I may be less anxious. 29 Welcome him then in the Lord with all joy, and honour such people, 30 because he came close to death for the work of Christ,[e] risking his life to make up for those services that you could not give me.

Philippians 2
King James Version
2 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,
2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.
3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.
17 Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.
18 For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me.
19 But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.
20 For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.
21 For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.
22 But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel.
23 Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.
24 But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.
25 Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labour, and fellowsoldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.
26 For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that ye had heard that he had been sick.
27 For indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.
28 I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:
30 Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.
