Textus Receptus:
ευχαριστω τω θεω μου επι παση τη μνεια υμων
King James:
I thank my God upon every remembrance of you
Comments:
Although the Philippians' reputation may merit Paul's grateful attitude, it is not why he is grateful. As he will make clear to the Philippians throughout chapter 4 (for example, in chapter 4:11), a Christian's attitude (even about others) is not determined by circumstance. As an example, Paul expresses the same kind of gratitude in 1 Corinthians 1:4 for a church that is anything but meritorious.
Paraphrase:
Every time you come up--every time I think of you--I am grateful to God.
