Closing Exhortations
4 Therefore, my dear brothers whom I long for, my joy and my victor’s crown, this is how you must stand firm in the Lord, dear friends. 2 I urge Euodia and Syntyche to have the same attitude in the Lord. 3 Yes, I also ask you, my true partner,[a] to help these women. They have worked hard with me to advance[b] the gospel, along with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the Book of Life.
4 Keep on rejoicing in the Lord at all times. I will say it again: Keep on rejoicing! 5 Let your gracious attitude[c] be known to all people. The Lord is near: 6 Never worry about anything. Instead, in every situation let your petitions be made known to God through prayers and requests, with thanksgiving. 7 Then God’s peace, which goes far beyond anything we can imagine, will guard your hearts and minds in union with the Messiah[d] Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is fair, whatever is pure, whatever is acceptable, whatever is commendable, if there is anything of excellence and if there is anything praiseworthy—keep thinking about these things. 9 Likewise, keep practicing these things: what you have learned, received, heard, and seen in me. Then the God of peace will be with you.
The Philippians’ Gifts
10 Now I rejoice in the Lord greatly, because once again you have shown your concern for me. Of course, you were concerned for me but you did not have an opportunity to show it.[e] 11 I am not saying this because I am in any need, for I have learned to be content in whatever situation I am in. 12 I know how to be humble, and I know how to prosper. In each and every situation I have learned the secret of being full and of going hungry, of having too much and of having too little. 13 I can do all things through him[f] who strengthens me. 14 Nevertheless, it was kind of you to share my troubles.
15 You Philippians also know that in the early days[g] of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church participated with me in the matter of giving and receiving except for you. 16 Even while I was in Thessalonica, you provided for my needs not once, but twice. 17 It is not that I am looking for a gift. No, I want to see that you receive the fruit that increases to your benefit. 18 I have been paid in full and have more than enough. I am fully supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus what you sent—a fragrant aroma, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God. 19 And my God will fully supply your every need according to his glorious riches in the Messiah[h] Jesus. 20 Glory belongs to our God and Father forever and ever! Amen.
Final Greeting
21 Greet every saint who is in union with the Messiah[i] Jesus. The brothers who are with me send their greetings to you. 22 All the saints, especially those of the emperor’s[j] household, greet you.
23 May the grace of the Lord Jesus, the Messiah,[k] be with your spirit! Amen.[l]

实践性的劝导
4 因此，我所爱的、所想念的弟兄们，我的喜乐、我的冠冕哪！各位蒙爱的人，你们当如此在主里站立得稳！ 2 我恳求犹迪娅，也恳求辛图柯，要在主里同心合意。 3 是的，我真诚的同伴[a]哪！我也请求你帮助她们两位[b]。她们在福音工作上曾经与我、克莱门斯，和我的其他同工们一起奋战，这些人的名字都在生命册上。 4 你们要在主里常常欢喜。我再说，你们要欢喜！ 5 要让所有人知道你们的谦和。主快到了！ 6 在任何事上都不要忧虑；然而要在一切事上，藉着祷告和祈求，以感谢的心把你们所求的告诉神。 7 这样，神的平安——那高过一切理性的平安，就会在基督耶稣里保守你们的心、你们的意念。
8 最后，弟兄们，凡是真实的、庄重的、公义的、纯洁的、可羡慕的、高尚的，如果有什么美德，如果有什么可称赞的，这些事你们就当思想； 9 凡是你们在我身上所学到的、所领受的、所听到的、所看到的，这些事你们就当实行。这样，赐平安的神就会与你们同在。
为馈赠感恩
10 我在主里极其欢喜，因为现在你们终于又萌发了思念我的心。其实你们一直在思念我，只是没有机会表达[c]。 11 我这样说，并不是因为我缺少什么；事实上，我已经学会了在任何情况下都知足。 12 我知道怎样处卑贱，也知道怎样处丰富；在一切事上，在一切情况下，或饱足、或饥饿，或丰富、或缺乏，我都得了秘诀。 13 藉着使我刚强的那一位[d]，我一切都能。 14 不过你们分担了我的患难，做得很好。
15 腓立比人哪，你们也知道，在福音工作的开始，我离开马其顿省的时候，在供给和领受的事上，除了你们以外，没有别的教会与我分享。 16 就是我在帖撒罗尼迦的时候，你们甚至也一再地把我所需要的送来。 17 我并不是求什么供应，而是求你们的果子增多，归在你们的账上。 18 如今我一切都得到了，并且丰足有余。我已经得以满足了，因为我从以帕弗迪托接受了来自你们的东西；那是馨香的气味，是神所悦纳、所喜悦的祭物。 19 我的神将按照他荣耀的丰盛，在基督耶稣里满足你们一切的需要。 20 愿荣耀归于神我们的父，直到永永远远！阿们。
结尾的祝福
21 请问候在基督耶稣里的每一位圣徒。与我在一起的弟兄们都问候你们； 22 所有的圣徒，尤其是来自凯撒宫里的人[e]，也都问候你们。 23 愿主耶稣基督的恩典与你们的灵[f]同在！[g]

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]
