Philippians 2:19-24
New English Translation
Models for Ministry
19 Now I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, so that I too may be encouraged by hearing news about you. 20 For there is no one here like him who will readily demonstrate his deep concern for you.[a] 21 Others are busy with their own concerns, not those of Jesus Christ. 22 But you know his qualifications, that like a son working with his father, he served with me in advancing the gospel. 23 So I hope to send him as soon as I know more about my situation, 24 though I am confident in the Lord that I too will be coming to see you[b] soon.

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.
