American King James Version
"Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation: "
— Philippians 2:29, American King James Version
“Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:”
“Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy; and hold such in honor: ”
“Receive him therefore in the Lord with all joy, and hold such in honor,”
“So welcome him in the Lord with great joy, and honor people like him,”
“Receive him therefore with all joy in the Lord: and treat with honour such as he is.”
“So take him to your hearts in the Lord with all joy, and give honour to such as he is:”
“Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:”
For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that you had heard that he had been sick.
For indeed he was sick near to death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow on sorrow.
I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when you see him again, you may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.
Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:
Because for the work of Christ he was near to death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.
