Chap. II.
He exhorteth them most instantly to keepe the vnitie of the Church, and to humble them
selues for that purpose one to an other, 3 by the example of the maruelous humilitie
of Christ, 9 specially seing hovv maruelously he is novv exalted for it. 12 Item
to obedience, feare, and perseuerance. 17 Insinuating (lest it should aftervvardes
trouble them) that he may be martyred at this time. 19 Timothee he hopeth to
send, vvhom he highly commendeth: 25 as also Epaphroditus, vvhom he presently
sendeth.
1 If therfore there be any consolation in
Christ, if any solace of charitie, if any societie
of spirit, if any bovvels of commiseration:
2 fulfil my ioy, that you be of
one meaning, hauing the same charitie, of
one minde, agreing in one.
3 nothing
by contenti&obar;, neither by vaine glorie: but
in humilitie, note eche co&ubar;ting other better then them selues:
4 noteeuery one not c&obar;sidering the things that are their owne,
but those that are other mens. note
5 For this thinke in your
selues, vvhich also in Christ Iesvs,
6 vvho vvhen he vvas
in the forme of God, thought it no robberie, him self to be
equal to God,
7 but he exinanited him self, taking the forme
of a seruant, made into the similitude of men, and in shape
found as man. note
8 He note humbled him self, made obedi&ebar;t vnto
death: euen the death of the crosse.
9 09Q1233For the vvhich thing
God also hath exalted him, and hath giuen him a name which
is aboue al names:
10 that note in the09Q1234 name of Iesvs euery knee
bovve of the celestials, terrestrials, and infernals:
11 and euery
tongue c&obar;fesse that our Lord Iesvs Christ is in the glorie
of God the Father. &cross4;
12 Therfore my deerest, (as you haue alvvaies obeied)
not as in the presence of me only, but much more novv in
my absence,09Q1235 vvith feare and trembling vvorke your saluation.
13 For it is God that09Q1236 vvorketh in you both to vvil
and to accomplish, according to his good vvil.
14 And doe
ye al things vvithout murmurings and staggerings:
15 that
you may be vvithout blame, and the simple children of God,
-- --
vvithout reprehension in the middes of a crooked and peruerse
generation, among vvhom you shine as lightes in the
vvorld:
16 conteining the vvord of life note to my glorie in
the daie of Christ, because I haue not runne in vaine, nor in
vaine laboured.
17 But and if I be note immolated, vpon the
09Q1237 sacrifice and seruice of your faith, I reioyce and congratulate
vvith you al.
18 And the self same thing doe you also reioyce,
and congratulate vvith me.
19 And I hope in our Lord Iesvs, to send Timothee
vnto you quickly, that I also may be of good comfort, when
I knovv the things pertaining to you.
20 For I haue no m&abar; so
of one minde that vvith sincere affection is careful for you.
21 For note al seeke the things that are their ovvne: not the
things that are Iesvs Christs.
22 And knovv ye an experiment
of him, that as a sonne the father, so hath he serued
vvith me in the Gospel.
23 This man therfore I hope to send
vnto you, immediatly as I shal see the things that concerne
me.
24 And I trust in our Lord that my self also shal come to
you quickly.
25 But I haue thought it necessarie to send
to you Epaphroditus my brother and coadiutor and fellovv
souldiar, but your Apostle, and minister of my necessitie.
26 Because in deede he had a desire tovvard you al: and vvas
pensife, for that you had heard that he vvas sicke.
27 For in
deede he vvas sicke euen to death: but God had mercie on
him: and not only on him, but on me also, lest I should haue
sorovv vpon sorovv.
28 Therfore I sent him the more spedily:
that seeing him, you may reioyce againe, and I may be
vvithout sorovv.
29 Receiue him therfore vvith al ioy in
our Lord: and such intreate vvith honour.
30 because for the
vvorke of Christ, he came to the point of death: yelding his
life, that he might fulfil that vvhich on your part vvanted
tovvard my seruice.
