From Paul and Timothy

Servants of Jesus Christ

to all the holy ones

who are in Philippi

grace

to you and

peace

From God

Our Father

I gives thanks

To my God

Always praying with joy

[For]

All of you in my every prayer

because of your partnership

in the gospel

from the first day until now

having been convinced

the one who began

a good work will be finishing

until the day of Jesus Christ.

[For]

it is right

[for] me to feel this way

because I have you in my heart

since you are partners with me in grace

For

I long for all of you

with the affection of Christ Jesus

[And]

I pray that your love might abound

[so that] you may be able to determine

the things that really matter

[so that] you might be pure

and blameless on the day of Christ

having been filled

with the fruit

of righteousness

to the glory and

praise of God.
