But I have been persuaded in the Lord that I myself will also come shortly.

Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and will lean his arm of flesh upon him, while his heart departs from the Lord.

And in His name [the] nations shall hope."

And again, Isaiah says: "There shall be the root of Jesse; and He that shall rise to rule over the Gentiles, in Him the Gentiles shall hope."

in whom also you, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,

For which cause I also suffer these things; but I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I have been persuaded that He is able to guard that which I have committed to Him until that Day.

Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that."

who through Him believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

Therefore I hope to send him at once, as soon as I may see how my circumstances go.

Yet I considered it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my needs;

Paul and Timothy, bondservants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, together with the overseers and ministers:

Timothy, my fellow worker, and Lucius, Jason, and Sosipater, my relatives, greet you.

Because of this I sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach everywhere in every church.

But that you also may know my circumstances, and how I am doing, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will make all things known to you;

whom I have sent to you for this very purpose, that you may know our situation, and that he may comfort your hearts.

I am sending him to you for this very thing, that he may know your circumstances, and he may encourage your hearts,

with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They will make known to you all the things [happening] here.

and sent Timothy, our brother and minister of God, and our fellow worker in the gospel of Christ, in order to establish you and encourage you concerning your faith,

But now when Timothy came to us from you, and brought good news to us of your faith and your love, and that you have good remembrance of us always, longing to see us, as we also [long to see] you--

Therefore I sent him more eagerly, in order that when you see him again you may have joy, and I may be less anxious.

But now when Timothy came to us from you, and brought good news to us of your faith and your love, and that you have good remembrance of us always, longing to see us, as we also [long to see] you--

Because now we live, if you stand firm in the Lord.

We are obligated to give thanks to God always for you, brothers, [and] rightfully so, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all increases towards one another,

hearing of your love and faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,

For we have much thanksgiving and encouragement over your love, because the affections of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.

For I rejoiced greatly when [the] brothers came and witnessed to the truth which is in you, just as you walk in truth.

I have no greater joy than these things, that I hear [that] my children are walking in truth.
