Philippians 4:1

²⁷Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

¹³Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong!

¹⁴Wait for the LORD. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for the LORD.

¹⁶holding up the word of life, that I may have something to boast in the day of Christ that I didn’t run in vain nor labor in vain.

⁵⁸Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

²³let’s hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.

⁸For God is my witness, how I long after all of you in the tender mercies of Christ Jesus.

³You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. ⁴Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.

²⁴Now to him who is able to keep them^[+] from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy, ²⁵to God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.

⁷to those who by perseverance in well-doing seek for glory, honor, and incorruptibility, eternal life;
