I exhort Euodia, and exhort Syntyche, to be of the same mind in [the] Lord;

| 4:8 |
For the rest, brethren, whatsoever things [are] true, whatsoever things [are] noble, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] amiable, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue and if any praise, think on these things.

Not that I speak as regards privation, for as to me *I* have learnt in those circumstances in which I am, to be satisfied in myself.

|
| 4:17 |
Not that I seek gift, but I seek fruit abounding to your account.

But to our God and Father [be] glory to the ages of ages. Amen.

All the saints salute you, and specially those of the household of Caesar.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit. Amen.
