Phil 2:19: But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.

Phil 2:20: For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.

Phil 2:21: For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.

Phil 2:22: But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel.

Phil 2:23: Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.

Phil 2:24: But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.

Phil 2:25: Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labour, and fellowsoldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.

Phil 2:26: For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that ye had heard that he had been sick.

Phil 2:27: For indeed he was sick nigh unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.

Phil 2:28: I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when ye see him again, ye may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.

Phil 2:29: Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:

Phil 2:30: Because for the work of Christ he was nigh unto death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.
