Philippians 4:12

I know how to be humbled, and I know also how to abound. In everything and in all things I have learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in need.
Philippians 4:12 · World English Bible

In context

10But I rejoice in the Lord greatly, that now at length you have revived your thought for me; in which you did indeed take thought, but you lacked opportunity.

11Not that I speak in respect to lack, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content in it.

12I know how to be humbled, and I know also how to abound. In everything and in all things I have learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in need.

13I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.

14However you did well that you shared in my affliction.
