\subsection{Philippians 2} \VS{1} If [there be] therefore any encouragement in Christ, if [there be] any consolation of agape-love, if [there be] any fellowship of [the] spirit, if any affection and compassion, \VS{2} fill my joy, in order that you be minded the same, having the same agape-love, [being] fellow-psyche-lives\fnPsyche{}, being mindful of the one [thing], \VS{3} nothing [being] according to strife nor according to conceit, but in humblemindedness be reckoning one another as surpassing themselves; \VS{4} each not looking to his own [things], but each also [looking to] the other's. \VS{5} Let this mind be being in you which [is] also in Christ Jesus, \VS{6} who being in the form of God did not reckon it loot\footnote{a thing to be grasped or even robbed} to be equal to God, \VS{7} but he emptied himself, having taken the form of [a] slave, coming to be in the likeness of men, and having been found in appearance as [a] man \VS{8} he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, even death of [a] cross. \VS{9} Therefore God also super-exalted him and graced to him the name above every name, \VS{10} in order that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, heavenly and earthly and sub-earthly, \VS{11} and every tongue confess: LORD, JESUS, CHRIST\footnote{or "[the] lord [is] Jesus Christ," or "[the] lord Jesus [is] Christ,'' or ''[he is] lord, [he is] Jesus, [he is] Christ,'' etc.}, to [the] glory of God [the] father. \VS{12} Therefore, my agape-beloved, just as you have always obeyed me, not as in my presence only but now much more in my absence, with fear and trembling be effecting your own salvation. \VS{13} For God is the [one] working in you both to be wanting and to be doing according to his good-pleasure. \VS{14} Be doing everything without grumblings and arguments, \VS{15} in order that you become blameless and pure, children of God unblemished in the midst of [a] crooked and perverted generation, among whom you shine as lights in [the] world, \VS{16} holding fast [the] word of zoe-life\fnZoe{}, to [a] boast for me in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain nor labored in vain. \VS{17} But if I also be offered up upon the altar and ministry [of your] faith, I rejoice and I co-rejoice with you all, \VS{18} so you also [for] the same [thing] be rejoicing and co-rejoicing with me. \VS{19} So I hope in [the] Lord Jesus to swiftly send Timothy to you, in order that I also be happy, having known the [latest news] [about] you. \VS{20} For I have no one like-souled, who will sincerely care for your state; \VS{21} for all seek their own [things], not the [things] of Christ Jesus. \VS{22} But you know his character, that as [a] son to [his] father has he slaved with me for the good-news. \VS{27} Him therefore I hope to send as soon as I see my immediate state. \VS{24} For I am persuaded in the Lord that I myself will swiftly come. \VS{25} Yet I reckoned it necessary to send to you Epaproditus the brother and co-worker and co-soldier, but your apostle, and minister of my needs, \VS{26} since he was longing for you all, and being distressed, because you heard that he had been sick. \VS{27} For indeed he was sick near to death. But God was merciful to him, not to him only but also to me, in order that I now have pain upon pain. \VS{28} Earnestly therefore have I sent him, in order that seeing him again you rejoice and I be free from anxiety. \VS{29} Therefore be awaiting him in [the] Lord with all joy, and be having such [men] honored, \VS{30} because on account of the work of Christ he drew near to death, risking [his] psyche-life\fnPsyche{}, in order that he supply your lack of ministry towards me.
