Philippians 2:28 in Context — Philippians 2
26 Car il désirait vous voir tous, et il était fort en peine de ce que vous aviez appris sa maladie.
27 Il a été malade, en effet, et tout près de la mort; mais Dieu a eu pitié de lui, et non seulement de lui, mais aussi de moi, afin que je n’eusse pas tristesse sur tristesse.
28 Je l’ai donc envoyé avec d’autant plus d’empressement, afin que vous vous réjouissiez de le revoir, et que je sois moi-même moins triste.
29 Recevez-le donc dans le Seigneur avec une joie entière, et honorez de tels hommes.
30 Car c’est pour l’œuvre de Christ qu’il a été près de la mort, ayant exposé sa vie afin de suppléer à votre absence dans le service que vous me rendiez.
