1Therefore, my brothers, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand firm in the Lord, my beloved.
2I exhort Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to think the same way in the Lord.
3Yes, I beg you also, true yoke-fellow, help these women, for they labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.
4Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, Rejoice!
5Let your mildness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.
6In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
7The peace of God, which passes all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.
