Philippians 2:19-24
Legacy Standard Bible
Timothy and Epaphroditus Sent
19 But I hope in the Lord Jesus to (A)send (B)Timothy to you shortly, so that I also may be in good spirits when I learn of your circumstances. 20 For I have no one else (C)of kindred spirit who will genuinely be concerned about your circumstances. 21 For they all (D)seek after their own interests, not those of Christ Jesus. 22 But you know (E)of his proven worth, that (F)he served with me in the furtherance of the gospel (G)like a child serving his father. 23 (H)Therefore I hope to send him immediately, as soon as I [a]evaluate my own circumstances, 24 and (I)I am confident in the Lord that I myself also will be coming shortly.

Timothy’s Proven Character
19 But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, so that I also may be encouraged when I[a] know your circumstances[b]. 20 For I have no one like-minded who will sincerely be concerned about your circumstances[c]. 21 For they all seek their own interests[d], not those of Jesus Christ. 22 But you know his proven character, that like a child with a father he served with me for the gospel. 23 Therefore I hope to send him at once, as soon as I see my circumstances[e]. 24 And I am convinced in the Lord that I myself will arrive shortly also.
