Filipi 4:5

4:5 Let everyone see your gentleness. ¹  The Lord is near!

Filipi 2:30

2:30 since it was because of the work of Christ that he almost died. He risked his life so that he could make up for your inability to serve me. ² 

Filipi 2:27

2:27 In fact he became so ill that he nearly died. ³  But God showed mercy to him – and not to him only, but also to me – so that I would not have grief on top of grief.

Filipi 1:7

1:7 For ⁴  it is right for me to think this about all of you, because I have you in my heart, ⁵  since both in my imprisonment ⁶  and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel all of you became partners in God’s grace ⁷  together with me.

[4:5]  ¹ tn Grk “let your gentleness be seen by all.” The passive voice construction has been converted to active voice in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[2:30]  ² tn Grk “make up for your lack of service to me.”

[2:27]  ³ tn Grk “For he became ill to the point of death.”

[1:7]  ⁴ tn Grk “Just as.” The sense here is probably, “So I give thanks (v. 3) just as it is right for me…”

[1:7]  ⁵ tn Or possibly “because you have me in your heart.”

[1:7]  ⁶ tn Grk “in my bonds.” The meaning “imprisonment” derives from a figurative extension of the literal meaning (“bonds,” “fetters,” “chains”), L&N 37.115.

[1:7]  ⁷ tn The word “God’s” is supplied from the context (v. 2) to clarify the meaning.
