Philippians 2:25-27

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

²⁵ But I considered it necessary to send you Epaphroditus^(A) – my brother, co-worker, and fellow soldier, as well as your messenger and minister to my need^(B) –  ²⁶ since he has been longing for all of you and was distressed because you heard that he was ill. ²⁷ Indeed, he was so ill that he nearly died. However, God had mercy on him, and not only on him but also on me, so that I would not have sorrow upon sorrow.
