11Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therein to be content.
12I know how to be abased, and I know also how to abound: in everything and in all things have I learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in want.
13I can do all things in him that strengtheneth me.
14Howbeit ye did well that ye had fellowship with my affliction.
15And ye yourselves also know, ye Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church had fellowship with me in the matter of giving and receiving but ye only;
16for even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my need.
17Not that I seek for the gift; but I seek for the fruit that increaseth to your account.
