1 Paul and Timothy, slaves of Christ Jesus, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, together with the overseers and deacons.
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 I give thanks to my God upon my every remembrance of you,
4 always in my every prayer for all of you, making the prayer with joy,
5 because of your participation in the gospel from the first day until now,
6 convinced of this same
7 just as it is right for me to think this about all of you, because I have you in my heart,
8 For God
9 And this I pray: that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment,
10 so that you may approve what is superior, in order that you may be sincere and blameless in
11 having been filled
12 Now I want you to know, brothers, that
13 so that my imprisonment in Christ has become known in the whole praetorium
14 and most of the brothers, trusting in the Lord because of my imprisonment, dare
15 Some even because of envy and strife preach Christ, but some also because of good will.
16 The latter
17 The former proclaim Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, thinking to raise up affliction in my imprisonment.
19 for I know that this will turn out to me for deliverance through your prayer and the support of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
20 according to my eager expectation and hope, that I will be put to shame in nothing, but with all boldness, even now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether through life or through death.
21 For to me to live
22 But if
23 But I am hard pressed
24 But to stay on in the flesh
25 And because I am
26 so that
27 Only lead your lives in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent I hear
28 and not letting yourselves be intimidated in anything by your opponents, which is a sign of destruction to them, but of your salvation, and this from God,
29 because to you has been graciously granted on behalf of Christ not only to believe in him, but also to suffer on behalf of him,
30 having the same struggle which you saw in me and now hear about in me.
