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 (A)hungry, both of having abundance and (B)suffering need. 13 I can do all things [a]through Him who (C)strengthens me. 14 Nevertheless, you have done well to (D)share with me in my difficulty.

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