2:2 | fille ye my ioye, that ye vndurstonde the same thing, and haue the same charite, of o wille, and feelen the same thing; |
2:3 | no thing bi strijf, nether by veyn glorie, but in mekenesse, demynge eche othere to be heiyer than hym silf; |
2:4 | not biholdinge ech bi hym silf what thingis ben his owne, but tho thingis that ben of othere men. |
2:5 | And fele ye this thing in you, which also in Crist Jhesu; |
2:6 | that whanne he was in the forme of God, demyde not raueyn, that hym silf were euene to God; |
2:7 | but he lowide hym silf, takinge the forme of a seruaunt, and was maad in to the licknesse of men, and in abite was foundun as a man. |
2:8 | He mekide hym silf, and was maad obedient to the deth, yhe, to the deth of the cross. |
2:9 | For which thing God enhaunside hym, and yaf to hym a name that is aboue al name; |

2:11 | and ech tunge knouleche, that the Lord Jhesu Crist is in the glorie of God the fadir. |
2:12 | Therfor, my most dereworthe britheren, as euere more ye han obeischid, not in my presence onely, but myche more now in myn absence, worche ye with drede and trembling youre heelthe. |
2:13 | For it is God that worchith in you, bothe to wilne, and to performe, for good wille. |

2:17 | But thouy Y be offrid or slayn on the sacrifice and seruyce of youre feith, Y haue ioye, and Y thanke you alle. |
2:18 | And the same thing haue ye ioye, and thanke ye me. |
2:19 | And Y hope in the Lord Jhesu, that Y schal sende Tymothe soone to you, that Y be of good coumfort, whanne tho thingis ben knowun that ben aboute you. |
2:20 | For Y haue no man so of o wille, that is bisi for you with clene affeccioun. |
2:21 | For alle men seken tho thingis that ben her owne, not tho that ben of Crist Jhesu. |
2:22 | But knowe ye the asaie of hym, for as a sone to the fadir he hath seruyd with me in the gospel. |
2:23 | Therfor Y hope that Y schal sende hym to you, anoon as Y se what thingis ben aboute me. |
2:24 | And Y triste in the Lord, that also my silf schal come to you soone. |
2:25 | And Y gesside it nedeful to sende to you Epafrodite, my brother and euene worchere, and myn euene knyyt, but youre apostle, and the mynystre of my nede. |

2:27 | For he was sijk to the deth, but God hadde merci on him; and not oneli on hym, but also on me, lest Y hadde heuynesse on heuynesse. |
2:28 | Therfor more hastili Y sente hym, that whanne ye han seyn hym, ye haue ioye eft, and Y be withouten heuynesse. |
2:29 | Therfor resseyue ye hym with al ioye in the Lord, and haue ye suche with al onour. |
2:30 | For the werk of Crist he wente to deth, yyuynge his lijf, that he schulde fulfille that that failide of you anentis my seruyce. |
2:1 | If ther be amoge you eny consolacion in Christ yf ther be eny cofortable love yf there be eny fellishippe of the sprete yf ther be eny copassion or mercy: |
2:2 | fulfyll my ioye that ye drawe one waye havinge one love beynge of one accorde and of one mynde |
2:3 | that nothinge be done thorow stryfe or vayne glory but that in mekenes of mynde every man esteme other better then him selfe |
2:4 | and that no man consyder his awne but what is mete for other. |
2:5 | Let the same mynde be in you that was in Christ Iesu: |
2:6 | Which beynge in the shape of god and thought it not robbery to be equall with god. |
2:7 | Neverthelesse he made him silfe of no reputacion and toke on him the shape of a servaunte and became lyke vnto men |
2:8 | and was founde in his aparell as a man. He humbled him silfe and became obediet vnto ye deeth even the deeth of the crosse. |
2:9 | Wherfore god hath exalted him and geve him a name above all names: |
2:10 | that in the name of Iesus shuld every knee bowe bothe of thinges in heve and thinges in erth and thinges vnder erth |
2:11 | and that all tonges shuld confesse that Iesus Christ is the lorde vnto the prayse of God the father. |
2:12 | Wherfore my dearly beloved as ye have al ways obeyed not when I was present only but now moche more in myne absence even so worke out youre awne saluacio with feare and tremblynge. |
2:13 | For it is god which worketh in you both ye will and also yt dede eve of good will |
2:14 | Do all thynge with out murmurynge and disputynge |
2:15 | that ye maye be fautelesse and pure and the sonnes of God with out rebuke in ye middes of a croked and a perverse nacion amonge which se that ye shyne as lightes in the worlde |
2:16 | holdinge fast the worde of lyfe vnto my reioysynge in ye daye of Christ that I have not runne in vayne nether have labored in vayne. |
2:17 | Yee and though I be offered vp vpon the offerynge and sacrifice of youre fayth: I reioyce and reioyce with you all. |
2:18 | For the same cause also reioyce ye and reioyce ye with me. |

2:27 | And no doute he was sicke and that nye vnto deeth. But god had mercy on him: not on him only but on me also lest I shuld have had sorowe apon sorowe. |
2:28 | I sent him therfore the diligentliar that when ye shuld se him ye myght reioyce agayne and I myght be the lesse sorowfull. |
2:29 | Receave him therfore in the lorde with all gladnes and make moche of soche: |
2:30 | because that for ye worke of Christ he went so farre that he was nye vnto deeth and regarded not his lyfe to fulfill that service which was lackynge on youre parte towarde me. |
2:1 | Yf there be amonge you eny consolacion in Christ, yf there be eny comforte of loue, yf there be eny fellishippe off the sprete, yf there be eny compassion and mercy, |
2:2 | fulfyll my ioye, that ye drawe one waye, hauynge one loue, beynge of one accorde, and of one mynde: |
2:3 | that there be nothinge done thorow stryfe and vayne glory, but that thorow mekenesse of mynde euery man esteme another better then himselfe: |
2:4 | and let euery ma loke not for his awne profet, but for the profet of other. |
2:5 | Let the same mynde be in you, that was in Christ Iesu: |
2:6 | which beyinge in the shappe of God, thought it not robbery to be equall with God, |
2:7 | but made him selfe of no reputacion, and toke vpon him the shappe of a seruaunt, became like another man, |
2:8 | and was founde in his apparell as a man: he humbled himselfe, and became obedient vnto the death, euen vnto the death of the crosse. |

2:14 | Do all thinges without murmurynges and disputinges, |
2:15 | that ye maye be fautles and pure, and the childre of God without rebuke, in the myddes of ye croked and peruerse nacion, amonge whom se that ye shyne as lightes in the worlde, |
2:16 | holdinge fast the worde of life, vnto my reioysinge in the daye of Christ, that I haue not runne in vayne, nether laboured in vayne. |
2:17 | Yee and though I be offred vp vpo the offerynge & sacrifice of youre faith, I am glad, and reioyce with you all: |
2:18 | be ye glad also, and reioyce ye with me. |
2:19 | I trust in the LORDE Iesus, to sende Timotheus shortly vnto you, that I also maye be of good comforte, whan I knowe what case ye stonde in. |

2:22 | But ye knowe the profe of him: for as a childe vnto the father, so hath he mynistred vnto me in the Gospell. |
2:23 | Him I hope to sende, as soone as I knowe how it wyll go with me. |
2:24 | But I trust in the LORDE, that I also my selfe shal come shortly. |
2:25 | Neuertheles I thoughte it necessary to sende vnto you the brother Ephraditus, which is my companyon in laboure and felowe soudyer, and youre Apostell, and my mynister at my nede, |
2:26 | for so moch as he longed after you all, and was full of heuynes, because ye had herde that he was sicke. |
2:27 | And no doute he was sicke, and that nye vnto death: but God had mercy on him, and not on him onely, but on me also, lest I shulde haue had sorowe vpon sorowe. |
2:28 | I haue sent him therfore the more haistely, that ye mighte se him, and reioyce agayne, and that I also mighte haue the lesse sorowe. |
2:29 | Receaue him therfore in the LORDE with all gladnes, and make moch of soche: |
2:30 | for because of the worke of Christ, he wente so farre, that he came nye vnto death, and regarded not his life, to fulfyll that seruyce which was lackynge on youre parte towarde me. |
