10
I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me; you were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity.
11
Not that I complain of want; for I have learned, in whatever state I am, to be content.
12
I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound; in any and all circumstances I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and want.
13
I can do all things in him who strengthens me.
