6 See Matt. 6:25do not be anxious about anything, [Prov. 16:3] but in everything by prayer and supplication See Rom. 1:8with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And [ver. 9; Isa. 26:3;Col. 3:15]; See John 14:27the peace of God, [Eph. 3:19]which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. 9 What you have learned4:9 Or these things—9which things you have also learned and 1 Thess. 4:1received and heard and seen [ch. 3:17] in me—practice these things, and [ver. 7]; See Rom. 15:33the God of peace will be with you.
