Philippians 2:26-28

21st Century King James Version

²⁶ For he longed after you all and was full of heaviness, because ye had heard that he had been sick.

²⁷ For indeed he was sick nigh unto death, but God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.

²⁸ I sent him therefore the more carefully, that when ye see him again ye may rejoice, and I may be the less sorrowful.
