1. Therefore, my brothers, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand firm in the Lord, my beloved.
2. I exhort Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to think the same way in the Lord.
3. Yes, I beg you also, true partner, help these women, for they laboured with me in the Good News, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.
4. Rejoice in the Lord always! Again I will say, “Rejoice!”
5. Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.
6. In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
7. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Messiah Yeshua.
8. Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honourable, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue, and if there is any praise, think about these things.
9. The things which you learnt, received, heard, and saw in me: do these things, and the God of peace will be with you.
