WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Тѣ́мже, бра́тїе моѧ̑ возлю́блєннаѧ и҆ вождєлѣ́ннаѧ, ра́досте и҆ вѣ́нче мо́й, та́кѡ сто́йте ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ, возлю́бленнїи.
1 Therefore, my brothers, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.
2 Є҆ѵо́дїю молю̀ и҆ сѷнтѵ́хїю молю̀ то́жде мꙋ́дрствовати ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ:
2 I exhort Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to think the same way in the Lord.
3 є҆́й, молю̀ и҆ тебѐ, сꙋпрꙋ́жниче прⷭ҇ный, споспѣ́шествꙋй и҆̀мъ, ꙗ҆̀же во бл҃говѣствова́нїи сподвиза́шасѧ со мно́ю и҆ съ кли́ментомъ и҆ съ про́чими споспѣ̑шники мои́ми, и҆́хже и҆мена̀ въ кни́гахъ живо́тныхъ.
3 Yes, I beg you also, true partner, help these women, for they labored 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 Ра́дꙋйтесѧ всегда̀ ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ: и҆ па́ки рекꙋ̀: ра́дꙋйтесѧ.
4 Rejoice in the Lord always! Again I will say, “Rejoice!”
5 Кро́тость ва́ша разꙋ́мна да бꙋ́детъ всѣ̑мъ человѣ́кѡмъ. Гдⷭ҇ь бли́з̾.
5 Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.
6 Ни ѡ҆ че́мже пецы́тесѧ, но во все́мъ моли́твою и҆ моле́нїемъ со благодаре́нїемъ прошє́нїѧ ва̑ша да сказꙋ́ютсѧ къ бг҃ꙋ:
6 In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
7 и҆ ми́ръ бж҃їй, превосходѧ́й всѧ́къ ᲂу҆́мъ, да соблюде́тъ сердца̀ ва̑ша и҆ разꙋмѣ̑нїѧ ва̑ша ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ.
7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.
8 Про́чее же, бра́тїе (моѧ̑), є҆ли̑ка сꙋ́ть и҆́стинна, є҆ли̑ка чтⷭ҇на, є҆ли̑ка првⷣна, є҆ли̑ка пречⷭ҇та, є҆ли̑ка прелюбє́зна, є҆ли̑ка доброхва̑льна, а҆́ще ка́ѧ добродѣ́тель и҆ а҆́ще ка́ѧ похвала̀, сїѧ̑ помышлѧ́йте.
8 Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honorable, 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 anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
9 И҆̀мже и҆ наꙋчи́стесѧ, и҆ прїѧ́сте, и҆ слы́шасте, и҆ ви́дѣсте во мнѣ̀, сїѧ̑ твори́те: и҆ бг҃ъ ми́ра бꙋ́детъ съ ва́ми.
9 Do the things which you learned, received, heard, and saw in me, and the God of peace will be with you.
10 Возра́довахсѧ же ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ вельмѝ, ꙗ҆́кѡ ᲂу҆жѐ когда̀ воспомѧнꙋ́сте пещи́сѧ ѡ҆ мнѣ̀: поне́же и҆ печа́стесѧ, но непого́днымъ вре́менемъ ѡ҆бдержа́стесѧ.
10 But I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your thought for me; in which you did indeed take thought, but you lacked opportunity.
11 Не ꙗ҆́кѡ по скꙋ́дости глаго́лю: а҆́зъ бо навыко́хъ, въ ни́хже є҆́смь, дово́ленъ бы́ти:
11 Not that I speak because of lack, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content in it.
12 вѣ́мъ и҆ смири́тисѧ, вѣ́мъ и҆ и҆збы́точествовати: во все́мъ и҆ во всѣ́хъ навыко́хъ, и҆ насыща́тисѧ и҆ а҆лка́ти, и҆ и҆збы́точествовати и҆ лиша́тисѧ.
12 I know how to be humbled, and I also know how to abound. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in need.
13 Всѧ̑ могꙋ̀ ѡ҆ ᲂу҆крѣплѧ́ющемъ мѧ̀ (і҆и҃сѣ) хрⷭ҇тѣ̀.
13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
14 Ѻ҆ба́че до́брѣ сотвори́сте, сприѡбщи́вшесѧ печа́ли мое́й.
14 However you did well that you shared in my affliction.
15 Вѣ́сте же и҆ вы̀, фїлїпписі́ане, ꙗ҆́кѡ въ нача́лѣ бл҃говѣствова́нїѧ, є҆гда̀ и҆зыдо́хъ ѿ македо́нїи, ни є҆ди́на мѝ цр҃ковь ѡ҆бщева́сѧ въ сло́во даѧ́нїѧ и҆ прїѧ́тїѧ, то́чїю вы̀ є҆ди́ни:
15 You yourselves also know, you Philippians, that in the beginning of the Good News, when I departed from Macedonia, no assembly shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you only.
16 ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ въ солꙋ́нь и҆ є҆ди́ною и҆ два́щи въ тре́бованїе (моѐ) посла́сте мѝ.
16 For even in Thessalonica you sent once and again to my need.
17 Не ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆щꙋ̀ даѧ́нїѧ, но и҆щꙋ̀ плода̀ мно́жащагѡсѧ въ сло́во ва́ше.
17 Not that I seek for the gift, but I seek for the fruit that increases to your account.
18 Прїѧ́хъ же всѧ̑ и҆ и҆збы́точествꙋю: и҆спо́лнихсѧ, прїе́мь ѿ є҆пафроді́та пѡ́сланнаѧ ѿ ва́съ, воню̀ благоꙋха́нїѧ, же́ртвꙋ прїѧ́тнꙋ, бл҃гоꙋго́днꙋ бг҃ꙋ.
18 But I have all things and abound. I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things that came from you, a sweet-smelling fragrance, an acceptable and well-pleasing sacrifice to God.
19 Бг҃ъ же мо́й да и҆спо́лнитъ всѧ́кое тре́бованїе ва́ше по бога́тствꙋ своемꙋ̀ въ сла́вѣ, ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ.
19 My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
20 Бг҃ꙋ же и҆ ѻ҆ц҃ꙋ̀ на́шемꙋ сла́ва во вѣ́ки вѣкѡ́въ. А҆ми́нь.
20 Now to our God and Father be the glory forever and ever! Amen.
21 Цѣлꙋ́йте всѧ́каго ст҃а ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ. Цѣлꙋ́ютъ вы̀ сꙋ̑щаѧ со мно́ю бра́тїѧ.
21 Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you.
22 Цѣлꙋ́ютъ вы̀ ст҃і́и всѝ, па́че же и҆̀же ѿ ке́сарева до́мꙋ.
22 All the saints greet you, especially those who are of Caesar’s household.
23 Блгⷣть гдⷭ҇а на́шегѡ і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀ со всѣ́ми ва́ми. А҆ми́нь.
23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 4:4 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Philippians (Homily XIV)

    "Blessed are they that mourn," and "woe unto them that laugh" (Matt. v. 4; Luke vi. 25.), saith Christ. How then saith Paul, "Rejoice in the Lord alway"? "Woe to them that laugh," said Christ, the laughter of this world which ariseth from the things which are present.

  2. Quotes verse 4:17 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book IV, Preface)

    … the Levites shall have no part in the whole tribe of Levi, nor substance with Israel; their substance is the offerings (fructifications) of the Lord: these shall they eat." Wherefore also Paul says, "I do not seek after a gift, but I seek after fruit." To His disciples He said, who had a priesthood of the Lord, to whom it …

  4. Quotes verse 4:4 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XXXVII)

    Heardest thou not what Paul saith, "Rejoice in the Lord?" He said not, "in the devil." When then wilt thou be able to hear Paul?

  5. Quotes verse 4:13 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture XXI)
