Philippians 2:26-28

New International Reader's Version

²⁶ He longs for all of you. He is troubled because you heard he was sick. ²⁷ He was very sick. In fact, he almost died. But God had mercy on him. He also had mercy on me. God spared me sadness after sadness. ²⁸ So I want even more to send him to you. Then when you see him again, you will be glad. And I won’t worry so much.
