2Philippians 2

1If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,Select Philippians 2:1

2Fulfill you my joy, that you be like minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.Select Philippians 2:2

3Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.Select Philippians 2:3

4Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.Select Philippians 2:4

5Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:Select Philippians 2:5

6Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:Select Philippians 2:6

7But made himself of no reputation, and took on him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:Select Philippians 2:7

8And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient to death, even the death of the cross.Select Philippians 2:8

9Why God also has highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:Select Philippians 2:9

10That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;Select Philippians 2:10

11And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.Select Philippians 2:11

12Why, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.Select Philippians 2:12

13For it is God which works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.Select Philippians 2:13

14Do all things without murmurings and disputings:Select Philippians 2:14

15That you may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the middle of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom you shine as lights in the world;Select Philippians 2:15

16Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither labored in vain.Select Philippians 2:16

17Yes, and if I be offered on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.Select Philippians 2:17

18For the same cause also do you joy, and rejoice with me.Select Philippians 2:18

19But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly to you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.Select Philippians 2:19

20For I have no man like minded, who will naturally care for your state.Select Philippians 2:20

21For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ’s.Select Philippians 2:21

22But you know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he has served with me in the gospel.Select Philippians 2:22

23Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.Select Philippians 2:23

24But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.Select Philippians 2:24

25Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labor, and fellow soldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.Select Philippians 2:25

26For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that you had heard that he had been sick.Select Philippians 2:26

27For indeed he was sick near to death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow on sorrow.Select Philippians 2:27

28I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when you see him again, you may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.Select Philippians 2:28

29Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:Select Philippians 2:29

30Because for the work of Christ he was near to death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.Select Philippians 2:30
