Philippians 1:1

Paul and Timotheus, servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with overseers and ministrants;

Philippians 1:2

Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Philippians 1:3

I give thanks to my God upon all the remembrance of you,

Philippians 1:4

always, in every supplication of mine for you all, with joy making the supplication,

Philippians 1:5

for your contribution to the good news from the first day till now,

Philippians 1:6

having been confident of this very thing, that He who did begin in you a good work, will perform `it' till a day of Jesus Christ,

Philippians 1:7

according as it is righteous for me to think this in behalf of you all, because of my having you in the heart, both in my bonds, and `in' the defence and confirmation of the good news, all of you being fellow-partakers with me of grace.

Philippians 1:8

For God is my witness, how I long for you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ,

Philippians 1:9

and this I pray, that your love yet more and more may abound in full knowledge, and all judgment,

Philippians 1:10

for your proving the things that differ, that ye may be pure and offenceless -- to a day of Christ,

Philippians 1:11

being filled with the fruit of righteousness, that `is' through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

Philippians 1:12

And I wish you to know, brethren, that the things concerning me, rather to an advancement of the good news have come,

Philippians 1:13

so that my bonds have become manifest in Christ in the whole praetorium, and to the other places -- all,

Philippians 1:14

and the greater part of the brethren in the Lord, having confidence by my bonds, are more abundantly bold -- fearlessly to speak the word.

Philippians 1:15

Certain, indeed, even through envy and contention, and certain also through good-will, do preach the Christ;

Philippians 1:16

the one, indeed, of rivalry the Christ do proclaim, not purely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds,

Philippians 1:17

and the other out of love, having known that for defence of the good news I am set:

Philippians 1:18

what then? in every way, whether in pretence or in truth, Christ is proclaimed -- and in this I rejoice, yea, and shall rejoice.

Philippians 1:19

For I have known that this shall fall out to me for salvation, through your supplication, and the supply of the Spirit of Christ Jesus,

Philippians 1:20

according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, and in all freedom, as always, also now Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether through life or through death,

Philippians 1:21

for to me to live `is' Christ, and to die gain.

Philippians 1:22

And if to live in the flesh `is' to me a fruit of work, then what shall I choose? I know not;

Philippians 1:23

for I am pressed by the two, having the desire to depart, and to be with Christ, for it is far better,

Philippians 1:24

and to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account,

Philippians 1:25

and of this being persuaded, I have known that I shall remain and continue with you all, to your advancement and joy of the faith,

Philippians 1:26

that your boasting may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my presence again to you.

Philippians 1:27

Only worthily of the good news of the Christ conduct ye yourselves, that, whether having come and seen you, whether being absent I may hear of the things concerning you, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one soul, striving together for the faith of the good news,

Philippians 1:28

and not terrified in anything by those opposing, which to them indeed is a token of destruction, and to you of salvation, and that from God;

Philippians 1:29

because to you it was granted, on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also on behalf of him to suffer;

Philippians 1:30

the same conflict having, such as ye saw in me, and now hear of in me.
