5Let your forbearance be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.
6In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
7And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.
8Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honorable, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
9The things which ye both learned and received and heard and saw in me, these things do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
10But I rejoice in the Lord greatly, that now at length ye have revived your thought for me; wherein ye did indeed take thought, but ye lacked opportunity.
11Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therein to be content.
