Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, [being] of one accord, of one mind.

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me.

But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel.

But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.

For indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.

I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.

Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:

Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed [is] not grievous, but for you [it is] safe.

And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.

Whose end [is] destruction, whose God [is their] belly, and [whose] glory [is] in their shame, who mind earthly things.)

Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

I beseech Euodias, and beseech Syntyche, that they be of the same mind in the Lord.

And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and [with] other my fellowlabourers, whose names [are] in the book of life.

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

For this cause we also, since the day we heard [it,] do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;

Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;

Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated [us] into the kingdom of his dear Son:

In whom we have redemption through his blood, [even] the forgiveness of sins:

For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all [things] he might have the preeminence.

For it pleased [the Father] that in him should all fulness dwell;

And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say,] whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven.

In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:

Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:

[Even] the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:

Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.

That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;

As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, [so] walk ye in him:

Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with [him] through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.

And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

[And] having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

When Christ, [who is] our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.

Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;

And have put on the new [man,] which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, [do] all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Husbands, love [your] wives, and be not bitter against them.

Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;

That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.

Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts;

Aristarchus my fellowprisoner saluteth you, and Marcus, sister's son to Barnabas, (touching whom ye received commandments: if he come unto you, receive him;)
