Philippians 2:26-28

GOD’S WORD Translation

²⁶ He has been longing to see all of you and is troubled because you heard that he was sick. ²⁷ Indeed, he was so sick that he almost died. But God had mercy not only on him but also on me and kept me from having one sorrow on top of another. ²⁸ So I’m especially eager to send him to you. In this way you will have the joy of seeing him again and I will feel relieved.
