Philippians 4:12

I know (how) to be abased, I know also how to abound in all; and in every thing I am trained with sufficiency and with hunger, with abundance and with destitution:

The Peschito Syriac New Testament: Translated into English by John Wesley Etheridge

In The King James Version

I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

In Context

13for every thing I am empowered through the Meshiha who strengtheneth me.
