Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Therefore, my dearly beloved brethren, and most desired, my joy and my crown; so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
1Itaque fratres mei carissimi, et desideratissimi, gaudium meum, et corona mea: sic state in Domino, carissimi.
2I beg of Evodia, and I beseech Syntyche, to be of one mind in the Lord.
2Evodiam rogo, et Syntychen deprecor, idipsum sapere in Domino.
3And I entreat thee also, my sincere companion, help those women who have laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement and the rest of my fellow labourers, whose names are in the book of life.
3Etiam rogo et te, germane compar, adjuva illas, quæ mecum laboraverunt in Evangelio cum Clemente, et ceteris adjutoribus meis, quorum nomina sunt in libro vitæ.
4Rejoice in the Lord always; again, I say, rejoice.
4Gaudete in Domino semper: iterum dico gaudete.
5Let your modesty be known to all men. The Lord is nigh.
5Modestia vestra nota sit omnibus hominibus: Dominus prope est.
6Be nothing solicitous; but in every thing, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your petitions be made known to God.
6Nihil solliciti sitis: sed in omni oratione, et obsecratione, cum gratiarum actione petitiones vestræ innotescant apud Deum.
7And the peace of God, which surpasseth all understanding, keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
7Et pax Dei, quæ exuperat omnem sensum, custodiat corda vestra, et intelligentias vestras in Christo Jesu.
8For the rest, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever modest, whatsoever just, whatsoever holy, whatsoever lovely, whatsoever of good fame, if there be any virtue, if any praise of discipline, think on these things.
8De cetero fratres, quæcumque sunt vera, quæcumque pudica, quæcumque justa, quæcumque sancta, quæcumque amabilia, quæcumque bonæ famæ, siqua virtus, siqua laus disciplinæ, hæc cogitate.
9The things which you have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these do ye, and the God of peace shall be with you.
9Quæ et didicistis, et accepistis, et audistis, et vidistis in me, hæc agite: et Deus pacis erit vobiscum.
10Now I rejoice in the Lord exceedingly, that now at length your thought for me hath flourished again, as you did also think; but you were busied.
10Gavisus sum autem in Domino vehementer, quoniam tandem aliquando refloruistis pro me sentire, sicut et sentiebatis: occupati autem eratis.
11I speak not as it were for want. For I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, to be content therewith.
11Non quasi propter penuriam dico: ego enim didici, in quibus sum, sufficiens esse.
12I know both how to be brought low, and I know how to abound: (everywhere, and in all things I am instructed) both to be full, and to be hungry; both to abound, and to suffer need.
12Scio et humiliari, scio et abundare (ubique et in omnibus institutus sum): et satiari, et esurire, et abundare, et penuriam pati.
13I can do all these things in him who strengtheneth me.
13Omnia possum in eo qui me confortat.
14Nevertheless you have done well in communicating to my tribulation.
14Verumtamen bene fecistis, communicantes tribulationi meæ.
15And you also know, O Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but you only:
15Scitis autem et vos Philippenses, quod in principio Evangelii, quando profectus sum a Macedonia, nulla mihi ecclesia communicavit in ratione dati et accepti, nisi vos soli:
16For unto Thessalonica also you sent once and again for my use.
16quia et Thessalonicam semel et bis in usum mihi misistis.
17Not that I seek the gift, but I seek the fruit that may abound to your account.
17Non quia quæro datum, sed requiro fructum abundantem in ratione vestra.
18But I have all, and abound: I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things you sent, an odour of sweetness, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.
18Habeo autem omnia, et abundo: repletus sum, acceptis ab Epaphrodito quæ misistis odorem suavitatis, hostiam acceptam, placentem Deo.
19And may my God supply all your want, according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
19Deus autem meus impleat omne desiderium vestrum secundum divitias suas in gloria in Christo Jesu.
20Now to God and our Father be glory world without end. Amen.
20Deo autem et Patri nostro gloria in sæcula sæculorum. Amen.
21Salute ye every saint in Christ Jesus.
21Salutate omnem sanctum in Christo Jesu.
22The brethren who are with me, salute you. All the saints salute you; especially they that are of Caesar’s household.
22Salutant vos, qui mecum sunt, fratres. Salutant vos omnes sancti, maxime autem qui de Cæsaris domo sunt.
23The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen.
23Gratia Domini nostri Jesu Christi cum spiritu vestro. Amen.
