14 Nevertheless you have done well that (A)you shared in my distress. 15 Now you Philippians know also that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, (B)no church shared with me concerning giving and receiving but you only. 16 For even in Thessalonica you sent aid once and again for my necessities. 17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek (C)the fruit that abounds to your account. 18 Indeed I [a]have all and abound. I am full, having received from (D)Epaphroditus the things sent from you, (E)a sweet-smelling aroma, (F)an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God. 19 And my God (G)shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. 20 (H)Now to our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.

  1. Philippians 4:18 Or have received all

14 Nevertheless you have done well by sharing[a] with me in my affliction. 15 Now you also know, Philippians, that at the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving except you alone, 16 because even in Thessalonica on more than one occasion[b] you sent for my need. 17 Not that I seek the gift, but I seek for the profit that increases to your account. 18 But I have received everything in full and have an abundance; I am well supplied[c] because[d] I received from Epaphroditus what you had sent[e], a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, well-pleasing to God. 19 And my God will fulfill your every need according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. 20 Now to our God and Father be the glory forever and ever[f]. Amen.
