Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, Philippians
Weymouth, Richard Francis
Bible. Philippians
004:012 I know both how to live in humble circumstances and how to live
amid abundance. I am fully initiated into all the mysteries
both of fulness and of hunger, of abundance and of want.
004:013 I have strength for anything through Him who gives me power.
004:014 Yet I thank you for taking your share in my troubles.
004:015 And you men and women of Philippi also know that at the first
preaching of the Good News, when I had left Macedonia,
no other Church except yourselves held communication with me
about giving and receiving;
004:016 because even in Thessalonica you sent several times to minister
to my needs.
004:017 Not that I crave for gifts from you, but I do want to see
abundant fruit bring you honour.
004:018 I have enough of everything--and more than enough.
My wants are fully satisfied now that I have received
from the hands of Epaphroditus the generous gifts which you
sent me--they are a fragrant odor, an acceptable sacrifice,
truly pleasing to God.
004:019 But my God--so great is His wealth of glory in Christ Jesus--
will fully supply every need of yours.
004:020 And to our God and Father be the glory throughout the Ages
of the Ages! Amen.
004:021 My Christian greetings to every one of God's people.
The brethren who are with me send their greetings.
004:022 All God's people here greet you--especially the members
of Caesar's household.
004:023 May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirits.
