Philippians 4:1–9

1  So that, my brethren, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, thus stand fast in the Lord, beloved. 2  I exhort Euodia, and exhort Syntyche, to be of the same mind in the Lord; 3  yea, I ask thee also, true yokefellow, assist them, who have contended along with me in the glad tidings, with Clement also, and my other fellow-labourers, whose names are in the book of life. 4  Rejoice in the Lord always: again I will say, Rejoice. 5  Let your gentleness be known of all men. The Lord is near. 6  Be careful about nothing; but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7  and the peace of God, which surpasses every understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts by Christ Jesus. 8  For the rest, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are noble, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are amiable, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue and if any praise, think on these things. 9  What ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these things do; and the God of peace shall be with you.
