2:1 | If [there be] therefore <3767> any <1536> consolation <3874> in <1722> Christ <5547>, if any <1536> comfort <3890> of love <26>, if any <1536> fellowship <2842> of the Spirit <4151>, if any <1536> bowels <4698> and <2532> mercies <3628>, |
2:2 | Fulfil ye <4137> (5657) my <3450> joy <5479>, that <2443> ye be likeminded <846> <5426> (5725), having <2192> (5723) the same <846> love <26>, [being] of one accord <4861>, of one <1520> mind <5426> (5723). |
2:3 | [Let] nothing <3367> [be done] through <2596> strife <2052> or <2228> vainglory <2754>; but <235> in lowliness of mind <5012> let <2233> (0) each <240> (0) esteem <2233> (5740) other <240> better than <5242> (5723) themselves <1438>. |
2:4 | Look <4648> (5720) not <3361> every man <1538> on his own things <1438>, but <235> every man <1538> also <2532> on the things <3588> of others <2087>. |
2:5 | <1063> Let <5426> (0) this <5124> mind be <5426> (5744) in <1722> you <5213>, which <3739> was also <2532> in <1722> Christ <5547> Jesus <2424>: |
2:6 | Who <3739>, being <5225> (5723) in <1722> the form <3444> of God <2316>, thought it <2233> (5662) not <3756> robbery <725> to be <1511> (5750) equal <2470> with God <2316>: |
2:7 | But <235> made <2758> (0) himself <1438> of no reputation <2758> (5656), and took upon him <2983> (5631) the form <3444> of a servant <1401>, and was made <1096> (5637) in <1722> the likeness <3667> of men <444>: |
2:8 | And <2532> being found <2147> (5685) in fashion <4976> as <5613> a man <444>, he humbled <5013> (5656) himself <1438>, and became <1096> (5637) obedient <5255> unto <3360> death <2288>, even <1161> the death <2288> of the cross <4716>. {fashion: or habit} |
2:9 | Wherefore <1352> God <2316> also <2532> hath highly exalted <5251> (5656) him <846>, and <2532> given <5483> (5662) him <846> a name <3686> which <3588> is above <5228> every <3956> name <3686>: |
2:10 | That <2443> at <1722> the name <3686> of Jesus <2424> every <3956> knee <1119> should bow <2578> (5661), of [things] in heaven <2032>, and <2532> [things] in earth <1919>, and <2532> [things] under the earth <2709>; |
2:11 | And <2532> [that] every <3956> tongue <1100> should confess <1843> (5672) that <3754> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> [is] Lord <2962>, to <1519> the glory <1391> of God <2316> the Father <3962>. |
2:12 | Wherefore <5620>, my <3450> beloved <27>, as <2531> ye have <5219> (0) always <3842> obeyed <5219> (5656), not <3361> as <5613> in <1722> my <3450> presence <3952> only <3440>, but <235> now <3568> much <4183> more <3123> in <1722> my <3450> absence <666>, work out <2716> (5737) your own <1438> salvation <4991> with <3326> fear <5401> and <2532> trembling <5156>. |
2:13 | For <1063> it is <2076> (5748) God <2316> which <3588> worketh <1754> (5723) in <1722> you <5213> both <2532> to will <2309> (5721) and <2532> to do <1754> (5721) of <5228> [his] good pleasure <2107>. |
2:14 | Do <4160> (5720) all things <3956> without <5565> murmurings <1112> and <2532> disputings <1261>: |
2:15 | That <2443> ye may be <1096> (5638) blameless <273> and <2532> harmless <185>, the sons <5043> of God <2316>, without rebuke <298>, in <1722> the midst <3319> of a crooked <4646> and <2532> perverse <1294> (5772) nation <1074>, among <1722> whom <3739> ye shine <5316> (5743) as <5613> lights <5458> in <1722> the world <2889>; {harmless: or, sincere} {ye shine: or, shine ye} |
2:16 | Holding forth <1907> (5723) the word <3056> of life <2222>; that <1519> I <1698> may rejoice <2745> in <1519> the day <2250> of Christ <5547>, that <3754> I have <5143> (0) not <3756> run <5143> (5627) in <1519> vain <2756>, neither <3761> laboured <2872> (5656) in <1519> vain <2756>. |
2:17 | Yea <235>, and if <1499> I be offered <4689> (5743) upon <1909> the sacrifice <2378> and <2532> service <3009> of your <5216> faith <4102>, I joy <5463> (5719), and <2532> rejoice with <4796> (5719) you <5213> all <3956>. {offered: Gr. poured forth} |
2:18 | For <1161> the same cause <846> also <2532> do <5463> (0) ye <5210> joy <5463> (5720), and <2532> rejoice with <4796> (5720) me <3427>. |
2:19 | But <1161> I trust <1679> (5719) in <1722> the Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> to send <3992> (5658) Timotheus <5095> shortly <5030> unto you <5213>, that <2443> I also <2504> may be of good comfort <2174> (5725), when I know <1097> (5631) your <5216> state <4012>. {But: or, Moreover} |
2:20 | For <1063> I have <2192> (5719) no man <3762> likeminded <2473>, who <3748> will naturally <1104> care <3309> (5692) for your <5216> state <4012>. {likeminded: or, so dear unto me} |
2:21 | For <1063> all <3956> seek <2212> (5719) their own <1438>, not <3756> the things which are <3588> Jesus <2424> Christ's <5547>. |
2:22 | But <1161> ye know <1097> (5719) the proof <1382> of him <846>, that <3754>, as <5613> a son <5043> with the father <3962>, he hath served <1398> (5656) with <4862> me <1698> in <1519> the gospel <2098>. |
2:23 | Him <3303> <5126> therefore <3767> I hope <1679> (5719) to send <3992> (5658) presently <1824>, so soon as <5613> I <302> shall see <542> (5632) how <4012> it will go with me <1691>. |
2:24 | But <1161> I trust <3982> (5754) in <1722> the Lord <2962> that <3754> I <2064> (0) also <2532> myself <846> shall come <2064> (5695) shortly <5030>. |
2:25 | Yet <1161> I supposed <2233> (5662) it necessary <316> to send <3992> (5658) to <4314> you <5209> Epaphroditus <1891>, my <3450> brother <80>, and <2532> companion in labour <4904>, and <2532> fellowsoldier <4961>, but <1161> your <5216> messenger <652>, and <2532> he that ministered <3011> to my <3450> wants <5532>. |
2:26 | For <1894> he <2258> (5713) longed after <1971> (5723) you <5209> all <3956>, and <2532> was full of heaviness <85> (5723), because <1360> that ye had heard <191> (5656) that <3754> he had been sick <770> (5656). |
2:27 | For <1063> indeed <2532> he was sick <770> (5656) nigh <3897> unto death <2288>: but <235> God <2316> had mercy <1653> (5656) on him <846>; and <1161> not <3756> on him <846> only <3440>, but <235> on me <1691> also <2532>, lest <3363> I should have <2192> (5632) sorrow <3077> upon <1909> sorrow <3077>. |
2:28 | I sent <3992> (5656) him <846> therefore <3767> the more carefully <4708>, that <2443>, when ye see <1492> (5631) him <846> again <3825>, ye may rejoice <5463> (5647), and that I <2504> may be <5600> (5753) the less sorrowful <253>. {carefully: or, with more anxious care} |
2:29 | Receive <4327> (5737) him <846> therefore <3767> in <1722> the Lord <2962> with <3326> all <3956> gladness <5479>; and <2532> hold <2192> (5720) such <5108> in reputation <1784>: {hold...: or, honour such} |
2:30 | Because <3754> for <1223> the work <2041> of Christ <5547> he was nigh <1448> (5656) unto <3360> death <2288>, not regarding <3851> (5666) his life <5590>, to <2443> supply <378> (5661) your <5216> lack <5303> of service <3009> toward <4314> me <3165>. |
