Philippians 4:12-23 Modern English Version (MEV)

12. I know both how to face humble circumstances and how to have abundance. Everywhere and in all things I have learned the secret, both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

13. I can do all things because of Christ who strengthens me.

14. Nevertheless you did well having shared in my affliction.

15. Now you Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel when I departed from Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you alone.

16. Even in Thessalonica, you sent aid once and again for my necessity,

17. not because I desired a gift, but I desire fruit that accumulates to your account.

18. But I have everything and abound. I have been filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, like a sweet fragrance, an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God.

19. But my God shall supply your every need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

20. Now to God and our Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.

21. Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you.

22. All the saints greet you, especially those who are of Caesar’s household.

23. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
