Grace be with you, and peace from God our Father, and from our Lord Jesus the Messiah.

I thank my God at the constant recollection of you,

For God is my witness, how I love you in the bowels of Jesus the Messiah.

and be full of the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus the Messiah, to the praise and glory of God.

And many of the brethren in our Lord have become confident, on account of my bonds, and are more bold to speak the word of God without fear.

And this is given to you by God, that ye not only really believe in the Messiah, but also that ye suffer on his account;

who, as he was in the likeness of God, deemed it no trespass to be the coequal of God;

Wherefore, also, God hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is more excellent than all names;

and that every tongue should confess that Jesus the Messiah is the Lord, to the glory of God his Father.

For God is operating in you, both to purpose, and also to perform that which ye desire.

that ye may be perfect and without blemish, as the sincere children of God, who are resident in a perverse and crooked generation; and that ye may appear among them as luminaries in the world;

And indeed he was sick, nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him: nor was it on him only, but also on me, that I might not have trouble upon trouble.

3 For we are the [fn] circumcision, who worship God in spirit, and glory in Jesus the Messiah, and place no reliance on the flesh.

and be found in him; since my righteousness is not [fn] that from the law, but that which is from faith in the Messiah, that is, the righteousness which is from God;

14 and I run straight for the goal, that I may obtain the [fn] of victory of the call of God from on high, by Jesus the Messiah.

Therefore let those who are perfect, have these views; and if ye differently view any thing, God will reveal that also to you.

whose end is destruction; whose god is their belly, and their glory their shame; whose thoughts are on things of the earth.

Be anxious for nothing; but at all times, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, make known your requests before God.

And the peace of God, which surpasseth all knowledge, will keep your hearts and your minds, through Jesus the Messiah.

What things ye have learned, and received, and heard, and seen, in me, these do ye: and the God of peace will be with you.
