17 I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because ^ethey have made up for your absence,

15 And you Philippians yourselves know that ^cin the beginning of the gospel, ^dwhen I left Macedonia, ^eno church entered into ^fpartnership with me in giving and receiving, except you only. 16 Even in Thessalonica you sent me help for my needs once and again.
