Philippians 2:28-30

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

²⁸ I am the more eager to send him, therefore, in order that you may rejoice at seeing him again, and that I may be less anxious. ²⁹ Welcome him then in the Lord with all joy, and honour such people, ³⁰ because he came close to death for the work of Christ,^[a] risking his life to make up for those services that you could not give me.
