Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)

¹⁰ I rejoice in the Lord greatly, that now at the last you have come around again to care for me – where you had been concerned, but you lacked opportunity. ¹¹ I am not speaking out of need. For I have learned, in whatever state I am, therewith to be content. ¹² I can both cast myself down and I can also prosper. Everywhere and in all things I am taught both to be full and to be hungry, to have plenty and to suffer need. ¹³ I can do all things with the help of Christ, who strengthens me. ¹⁴ Notwithstanding, you have done well to bear part with me in my tribulation.

¹⁵ You of Philippi know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no congregation bore part with me (as regards giving and receiving) but you only.
