Philippians 2
27 Ref for he also ailed nigh to death, but God did deal kindly with him, and not with him only, but also with me, that sorrow upon sorrow I might not have.
28 Ref The more eagerly, therefore, I did send him, that having seen him again ye may rejoice, and I may be the less sorrowful;
29 Ref receive him, therefore, in the Lord, with all joy, and hold such in honour,
30 Ref because on account of the work of the Christ he drew near to death, having hazarded the life that he might fill up your deficiency of service unto me.
