Think of Excellence
4 Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, [a]whom I (A)long to see, my joy and crown, (B)stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.
2 I urge Euodia and I urge Syntyche to [b](C)live in harmony in the Lord. 3 Indeed, true [c]companion, I ask you also, help these women who have shared my struggle in the cause of the gospel, together with Clement as well as the rest of my (D)fellow workers, whose (E)names are in the book of life.
4 (F)Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice! 5 Let your gentle spirit be known to all people. (G)The Lord is [d]near. 6 (H)Do not [e]be anxious about anything, but in everything by (I)prayer and pleading with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And (J)the peace of God, which surpasses all [f]comprehension, will (K)guard your hearts and (L)minds in (M)Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers and sisters, (N)whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is [g]lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, think about these things. 9 As for the things you have learned and received and heard and seen (O)in me, practice these things, and (P)the God of peace will be with you.
God’s Provisions
10 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at last (Q)you have revived your concern for me; indeed, you were concerned before, but you lacked an opportunity to act. 11 Not that I speak [h]from need, for I have learned to be [i](R)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 (S)hungry, both of having abundance and (T)suffering need. 13 I can do all things [j]through Him who (U)strengthens me. 14 Nevertheless, you have done well to (V)share with me in my difficulty.
15 You yourselves also know, Philippians, that at the [k](W)first preaching of the gospel, after I left (X)Macedonia, no church (Y)shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving except you alone; 16 for even in (Z)Thessalonica you sent a gift more than once for my needs. 17 (AA)Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek the [l]profit which increases to your account. 18 But I have received everything in full and have an abundance; I am [m]amply supplied, having received from (AB)Epaphroditus [n]what you have sent, [o](AC)a fragrant aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. 19 And (AD)my God will supply [p]all your needs according to His (AE)riches in glory in Christ Jesus. 20 Now to (AF)our God and Father (AG)be the glory [q]forever and ever. Amen.
21 Greet every [r]saint in Christ Jesus. (AH)The brothers who are with me greet you. 22 (AI)All the [s](AJ)saints greet you, especially those of Caesar’s household.
23 (AK)The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ (AL)be with your spirit.

Closing Appeal for Steadfastness and Unity
4 Therefore, my brothers and sisters, you whom I love and long for,(A) my joy and crown, stand firm(B) in the Lord in this way, dear friends!
2 I plead with Euodia and I plead with Syntyche to be of the same mind(C) in the Lord. 3 Yes, and I ask you, my true companion, help these women since they have contended at my side in the cause of the gospel, along with Clement and the rest of my co-workers,(D) whose names are in the book of life.(E)
Final Exhortations
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!(F) 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.(G) 6 Do not be anxious about anything,(H) but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.(I) 7 And the peace of God,(J) which transcends all understanding,(K) will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice.(L) And the God of peace(M) will be with you.
Thanks for Their Gifts
10 I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me.(N) Indeed, you were concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it. 11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content(O) whatever the circumstances. 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry,(P) whether living in plenty or in want.(Q) 13 I can do all this through him who gives me strength.(R)
14 Yet it was good of you to share(S) in my troubles. 15 Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days(T) of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia,(U) not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only;(V) 16 for even when I was in Thessalonica,(W) you sent me aid more than once when I was in need.(X) 17 Not that I desire your gifts; what I desire is that more be credited to your account.(Y) 18 I have received full payment and have more than enough. I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus(Z) the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant(AA) offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. 19 And my God will meet all your needs(AB) according to the riches of his glory(AC) in Christ Jesus.
20 To our God and Father(AD) be glory for ever and ever. Amen.(AE)
Final Greetings
21 Greet all God’s people in Christ Jesus. The brothers and sisters who are with me(AF) send greetings. 22 All God’s people(AG) here send you greetings, especially those who belong to Caesar’s household.
23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ(AH) be with your spirit.(AI) Amen.[a]

Think of Excellence
4 Therefore, my [a]fellow believers, whom I love and long for, my delight and crown [my wreath of victory], in this way stand firm in the Lord, my beloved.
2 I urge Euodia and I urge Syntyche to agree and to work in harmony in the Lord. 3 Indeed, I ask you too, my true companion, to help these women [to keep on cooperating], for they have shared my struggle in the [cause of the] gospel, together with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the Book of Life.(A)
4 Rejoice in the Lord always [delight, take pleasure in Him]; again I will say, rejoice!(B) 5 Let your gentle spirit [your graciousness, unselfishness, mercy, tolerance, and patience] be known to all people. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious or worried about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God. 7 And the peace of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which transcends all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours].(C)
8 Finally, [b]believers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable and worthy of respect, whatever is right and confirmed by God’s word, whatever is pure and wholesome, whatever is lovely and brings peace, whatever is admirable and of good repute; if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think continually on these things [center your mind on them, and implant them in your heart]. 9 The things which you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things [in daily life], and the God [who is the source] of peace and well-being will be with you.
God’s Provisions
10 I rejoiced greatly in the Lord, that now at last you have renewed your concern for me; indeed, you were concerned about me before, but you had no opportunity to show it. 11 Not that I speak from [any personal] need, for I have learned to be content [and self-sufficient through Christ, satisfied to the point where I am not disturbed or uneasy] regardless of my circumstances. 12 I know how to get along and live humbly [in difficult times], and I also know how to enjoy abundance and live in prosperity. In any and every circumstance I have learned the secret [of facing life], whether well-fed or going hungry, whether having an abundance or being in need. 13 I can do all things [which He has called me to do] through Him who strengthens and empowers me [to fulfill His purpose—I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency; I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him who infuses me with inner strength and confident peace.] 14 Nevertheless, it was right of you to share [with me] in my difficulties.
15 And you Philippians know that in the early days of preaching the gospel, after I left Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of [c]giving and receiving except you alone; 16 for even in Thessalonica you sent a gift more than once for my needs. 17 Not that I seek the gift itself, but I do seek the profit which increases to your [heavenly] account [the blessing which is accumulating for you]. 18 But I have received everything in full and more; I am amply supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent me. They are the fragrant aroma of an offering, an acceptable sacrifice which God welcomes and in which He delights. 19 And my God will liberally supply (fill until full) your every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. 20 To our God and Father be the glory [d]forever and ever. Amen.
21 Remember me to every [e]saint in Christ Jesus. The [f]brothers who are with me greet you. 22 All [g]God’s people wish to be remembered to you, especially those of Caesar’s household.
23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

4 Portanto, meus amados e mui queridos irmãos, minha alegria e coroa, estai assim firmes no Senhor, amados.
2 Rogo a Evódia e rogo a Síntique que sintam o mesmo no Senhor. 3 E peço-te também a ti, meu verdadeiro companheiro, que ajudes essas mulheres que trabalharam comigo no evangelho, e com Clemente, e com os outros cooperadores, cujos nomes estão no livro da vida. 4 Regozijai-vos, sempre, no Senhor; outra vez digo: regozijai-vos. 5 Seja a vossa equidade notória a todos os homens. Perto está o Senhor. 6 Não estejais inquietos por coisa alguma; antes, as vossas petições sejam em tudo conhecidas diante de Deus, pela oração e súplicas, com ação de graças. 7 E a paz de Deus, que excede todo o entendimento, guardará os vossos corações e os vossos sentimentos em Cristo Jesus.
8 Quanto ao mais, irmãos, tudo o que é verdadeiro, tudo o que é honesto, tudo o que é justo, tudo o que é puro, tudo o que é amável, tudo o que é de boa fama, se há alguma virtude, e se há algum louvor, nisso pensai. 9 O que também aprendestes, e recebestes, e ouvistes, e vistes em mim, isso fazei; e o Deus de paz será convosco.
Paulo agradece aos filipenses os dons recebidos. Saudações finais
10 Ora, muito me regozijei no Senhor por, finalmente, reviver a vossa lembrança de mim; pois já vos tínheis lembrado, mas não tínheis tido oportunidade. 11 Não digo isto como por necessidade, porque já aprendi a contentar-me com o que tenho. 12 Sei estar abatido e sei também ter abundância; em toda a maneira e em todas as coisas, estou instruído, tanto a ter fartura como a ter fome, tanto a ter abundância como a padecer necessidade. 13 Posso todas as coisas naquele que me fortalece.
14 Todavia, fizestes bem em tomar parte na minha aflição. 15 E bem sabeis também vós, ó filipenses, que, no princípio do evangelho, quando parti da Macedônia, nenhuma igreja comunicou comigo com respeito a dar e a receber, senão vós somente. 16 Porque também, uma e outra vez, me mandastes o necessário a Tessalônica. 17 Não que procure dádivas, mas procuro o fruto que aumente a vossa conta. 18 Mas bastante tenho recebido e tenho abundância; cheio estou, depois que recebi de Epafrodito o que da vossa parte me foi enviado, como cheiro de suavidade e sacrifício agradável e aprazível a Deus. 19 O meu Deus, segundo as suas riquezas, suprirá todas as vossas necessidades em glória, por Cristo Jesus. 20 Ora, a nosso Deus e Pai seja dada glória para todo o sempre. Amém!
21 Saudai a todos os santos em Cristo Jesus. Os irmãos que estão comigo vos saúdam. 22 Todos os santos vos saúdam, mas principalmente os que são da casa de César.
23 A graça de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo seja com vós todos. Amém!

4 Portanto, meus irmãos, a quem amo e de quem tenho saudade, vocês que são a minha alegria e a minha coroa, permaneçam assim firmes no Senhor, ó amados!
Exortações
2 O que eu rogo a Evódia e também a Síntique é que vivam em harmonia no Senhor. 3 Sim, e peço a você, leal companheiro de jugo[a], que as ajude; pois lutaram ao meu lado na causa do evangelho, com Clemente e meus demais cooperadores. Os seus nomes estão no livro da vida.
4 Alegrem-se sempre no Senhor. Novamente direi: Alegrem-se! 5 Seja a amabilidade de vocês conhecida por todos. Perto está o Senhor. 6 Não andem ansiosos por coisa alguma, mas em tudo, pela oração e súplicas, e com ação de graças, apresentem seus pedidos a Deus. 7 E a paz de Deus, que excede todo o entendimento, guardará o coração e a mente de vocês em Cristo Jesus.
8 Finalmente, irmãos, tudo o que for verdadeiro, tudo o que for nobre, tudo o que for correto, tudo o que for puro, tudo o que for amável, tudo o que for de boa fama, se houver algo de excelente ou digno de louvor, pensem nessas coisas. 9 Ponham em prática tudo o que vocês aprenderam, receberam, ouviram e viram em mim. E o Deus da paz estará com vocês.
Agradecimentos pelas Ofertas
10 Alegro-me grandemente no Senhor, porque finalmente vocês renovaram o seu interesse por mim. De fato, vocês já se interessavam, mas não tinham oportunidade para demonstrá-lo. 11 Não estou dizendo isso porque esteja necessitado, pois aprendi a adaptar-me a toda e qualquer circunstância. 12 Sei o que é passar necessidade e sei o que é ter fartura. Aprendi o segredo de viver contente em toda e qualquer situação, seja bem alimentado, seja com fome, tendo muito, ou passando necessidade. 13 Tudo posso naquele que me fortalece.
14 Apesar disso, vocês fizeram bem em participar de minhas tribulações. 15 Como vocês sabem, filipenses, nos seus primeiros dias no evangelho, quando parti da Macedônia, nenhuma igreja partilhou comigo no que se refere a dar e receber, exceto vocês; 16 pois, estando eu em Tessalônica, vocês me mandaram ajuda, não apenas uma vez, mas duas, quando tive necessidade. 17 Não que eu esteja procurando ofertas, mas o que pode ser creditado na conta de vocês. 18 Recebi tudo, e o que tenho é mais que suficiente. Estou amplamente suprido, agora que recebi de Epafrodito os donativos que vocês enviaram. São uma oferta de aroma suave, um sacrifício aceitável e agradável a Deus. 19 O meu Deus suprirá todas as necessidades de vocês, de acordo com as suas gloriosas riquezas em Cristo Jesus.
20 A nosso Deus e Pai seja a glória para todo o sempre. Amém.
Saudações Finais
21 Saúdem a todos os santos em Cristo Jesus. Os irmãos que estão comigo enviam saudações. 22 Todos os santos lhes enviam saudações, especialmente os que estão no palácio de César.
23 A graça do Senhor Jesus Cristo seja com o espírito de vocês. Amém.[b]
