(DB) Philippians 2 : 1 If then there be any comfort in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and compassions,
(DB) Philippians 2 : 2 fulfil my joy, that ye may think the same thing, having the same love, joined in soul, thinking one thing;
(DB) Philippians 2 : 3 let nothing be in the spirit of strife or vain glory, but, in lowliness of mind, each esteeming the other as more excellent than themselves;
(DB) Philippians 2 : 4 regarding not each his own qualities, but each those of others also.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 5 For let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus;
(DB) Philippians 2 : 6 who, subsisting in the form of God, did not esteem it an object of rapine to be on an equality with God;
(DB) Philippians 2 : 7 but emptied himself, taking a bondman's form, taking his place in the likeness of men;
(DB) Philippians 2 : 8 and having been found in figure as a man, humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, and that the death of the cross.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 9 Wherefore also God highly exalted him, and granted him a name, that which is above every name,
(DB) Philippians 2 : 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of heavenly and earthly and infernal beings,
(DB) Philippians 2 : 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to God the Father's glory.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 12 So that, my beloved, even as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much rather in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling,
(DB) Philippians 2 : 13 for it is God who works in you both the willing and the working according to his good pleasure.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 14 Do all things without murmurings and reasonings,
(DB) Philippians 2 : 15 that ye may be harmless and simple, irreproachable children of God in the midst of a crooked and perverted generation; among whom ye appear as lights in the world,
(DB) Philippians 2 : 16 holding forth the word of life, so as to be a boast for me in Christ's day, that I have not run in vain nor laboured in vain.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 17 But if also I am poured out as a libation on the sacrifice and ministration of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice in common with you all.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 18 In like manner do ye also rejoice, and rejoice with me.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 19 But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus to you shortly, that I also may be refreshed, knowing how ye get on.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 20 For I have no one like-minded who will care with genuine feeling how ye get on.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 21 For all seek their own things, not the things of Jesus Christ.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 22 But ye know the proof of him, that, as a child a father, he has served with me in the work of the glad tidings.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 23 Him therefore I hope to send immediately, as soon as I shall see how it goes with me:
(DB) Philippians 2 : 24 but I trust in the Lord that I myself also shall soon come;
(DB) Philippians 2 : 25 but I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow-workman and fellow-soldier, but your messenger and minister to my need,
(DB) Philippians 2 : 26 since he had a longing desire after you all, and was distressed because ye had heard that he was sick;
(DB) Philippians 2 : 27 for he was also sick close to death, but God had mercy on him, and not indeed on him alone, but also on me, that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 28 I have sent him therefore the more diligently, that seeing him ye might again rejoice, and that I might be the less sorrowful.
(DB) Philippians 2 : 29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy, and hold such in honour;
(DB) Philippians 2 : 30 because for the sake of the work he drew near even to death, venturing his life that he might fill up what lacked in your ministration toward me.
