Philippians 4:14-20
English Standard Version
14 Yet it was kind of you (A)to share[a] my trouble. 15 And you Philippians yourselves know that (B)in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, (C)no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving, except you only. 16 Even in Thessalonica you sent me help for my needs once and again. 17 (D)Not that I seek the gift, but I seek (E)the fruit that increases to your credit.[b] 18 I have received full payment, and more. I am well supplied, (F)having received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent, (G)a fragrant offering, (H)a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God. 19 And my God (I)will supply every need of yours (J)according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. 20 To (K)our God and Father be (L)glory forever and ever. Amen.

Philippians 4:14-20
International Standard Version
14 Nevertheless, it was kind of you to share my troubles.
15 You Philippians also know that in the early days[a] 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[b] Jesus. 20 Glory belongs to our God and Father forever and ever! Amen.
