1. Paul, and Timothy, slaves of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with the overseers and ministers:
|
1. Paul G3972 and G2532 Timothy G5095 , the servants G1401 of Jesus G5547 Christ G5547 , to all G3956 the G3588 saints G40 in G1722 Christ G5547 Jesus G2424 which are G5607 at G1722 Philippi G5375 , with G4862 the bishops G1985 and G2532 deacons G1249 :
|
|
2. Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
|
2. Grace G5485 be unto you G5213 , and G2532 peace G1515 , from G575 God G2316 our G2257 Father G3962 , and G2532 from the Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 .
|
|
3. I thank my God on all the remembrance of you,
|
3. I thank G2168 my G3450 God G2316 upon G1909 every G3956 remembrance G3417 of you G5216 ,
|
|
4. always in my every prayer on your behalf making my prayer with joy
|
4. Always G3842 in G1722 every G3956 prayer G1162 of mine G3450 for G5228 you G5216 all G3956 making G4160 request G1162 with G3326 joy G5479 ,
|
|
5. over your fellowship in the gospel, from the first day until now,
|
5. For G1909 your G5216 fellowship G2842 in G1519 the G3588 gospel G2098 from G575 the first G4413 day G2250 until G891 now G3568 ;
|
|
6. being persuaded of this very thing, that the One having begun a good work in you will finish it until the day of Jesus Christ;
|
6. Being confident G3982 of this very thing G5124 G848 , that G3754 he which hath begun G1728 a good G18 work G2041 in G1722 you G5213 will perform G2005 it until G891 the day G2250 of Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 :
|
|
7. as it is righteous for me to think this of you all because you have me in your heart, both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you are all sharers of the grace with me.
|
7. Even as G2531 it is G2076 meet G1342 for me G1698 to think G5426 this G5124 of G5228 you G5216 all G3956 , because I G3165 have G2192 you G5209 in G1722 my heart G2588 ; inasmuch as both G5037 in G1722 my G3450 bonds G1199 , and G2532 in the G3588 defense G627 and G2532 confirmation G951 of the G3588 gospel G2098 , ye G5209 all G3956 are G5607 partakers G4791 of my G3450 grace G5485 .
|
|
8. For God is my witness how I long after you all in the affections of Jesus Christ.
|
8. For G1063 God G2316 is G2076 my G3450 record G3144 , how G5613 greatly I long after G1971 you G5209 all G3956 in G1722 the bowels G4698 of Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 .
|
|
9. And this I pray, that your love may yet abound more and more in full knowledge and all perception,
|
9. And G2532 this G5124 I pray G4336 , that G2443 your G5216 love G26 may abound G4052 yet G2089 more G3123 and G2532 more G3123 in G1722 knowledge G1922 and G2532 in all G3956 judgment G144 ;
|
|
10. for you to distinguish the things that differ, that you may be sincere and without blame for the day of Christ,
|
10. That ye G5209 may approve G1381 things that are excellent G1308 ; that G2443 ye may be G5600 sincere G1506 and G2532 without offense G677 till G1519 the day G2250 of Christ G5547 ;
|
|
11. being filled with fruits of righteousness through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
|
11. Being filled G4137 with the fruits G2590 of righteousness G1343 , which G3588 are by G1223 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 , unto G1519 the glory G1391 and G2532 praise G1868 of God G2316 .
|
|
12. But I want you to know, brothers, that the things concerning me have more fully come to the advancement of the gospel,
|
12. But G1161 I would G1014 ye G5209 should understand G1097 , brethren G80 , that G3754 the things G3588 which happened unto G2596 me G1691 have fallen out G2064 rather G3123 unto G1519 the furtherance G4297 of the G3588 gospel G2098 ;
|
|
13. so that in all the praetorium, and to all the rest, my bonds have become clearly revealed to be in Christ.
|
13. So that G5620 my G3450 bonds G1199 in G1722 Christ G5547 are G1096 manifest G5318 in G1722 all G3650 the G3588 palace G4232 , and G2532 in all G3956 other G3062 places ;
|
|
14. And the most of the brothers in the Lord, being confident in my bonds, more exceedingly dare to speak the Word fearlessly.
|
14. And G2532 many G4119 of the G3588 brethren G80 in G1722 the Lord G2962 , waxing confident G3982 by my G3450 bonds G1199 , are much more bold G5111 G4056 to speak G2980 the G3588 word G3056 without fear G870 .
|
|
15. Some, indeed, even proclaim Christ because of envy and strife, but some also because of good will.
|
15. Some G5100 indeed G3303 preach G2784 Christ G5547 even G2532 of G1223 envy G5355 and G2532 strife G2054 ; and G1161 some G5100 also G2532 of G1223 good will G2107 :
|
|
16. These, indeed, announce Christ out of party spirit, not sincerely, thinking to add affliction to my bonds.
|
16. The one G3588 G3303 preach G2605 Christ G5547 of G1537 contention G2052 , not G3756 sincerely G55 , supposing G3633 to add G2018 affliction G2347 to my G3450 bonds G1199 :
|
|
17. But these others out of love, knowing that I am set for defense of the gospel.
|
17. But G1161 the other G3588 of G1537 love G26 , knowing G1492 that G3754 I am set G2749 for G1519 the defense G627 of the G3588 gospel G2098 .
|
|
18. What then? Yet in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed, and I rejoice in this; yet also I will rejoice.
|
18. What G5101 then G1063 ? notwithstanding G4133 , every G3956 way G5158 , whether G1535 in pretense G4392 , or G1535 in truth G225 , Christ G5547 is preached G2605 ; and G2532 I therein G1722 G5129 do rejoice G5463 , yea G235 , and G2532 will rejoice G5463 .
|
|
19. For I know that this will result in deliverance to me through your petition and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, Job 13:16
|
19. For G1063 I know G1492 that G3754 this G5124 shall turn G576 to G1519 my G3427 salvation G4991 through G1223 your G5216 prayer G1162 , and G2532 the supply G2024 of the G3588 Spirit G4151 of Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 ,
|
|
20. according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but as always in all boldness even now Christ will be magnified in my body, whether through life or through death.
|
20. According G2596 to my G3450 earnest expectation G603 and G2532 my hope G1680 , that G3754 in G1722 nothing G3762 I shall be ashamed G153 , but G235 that with G1722 all G3956 boldness G3954 , as G5613 always G3842 , so now G3568 also G2532 Christ G5547 shall be magnified G3170 in G1722 my G3450 body G4983 , whether G1535 it be by G1223 life G2222 , or G1535 by G1223 death G2288 .
|
|
21. For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
|
21. For G1063 to me G1698 to live G2198 is Christ G5547 , and G2532 to die G599 is gain G2771 .
|
|
22. But if I live in the flesh, this to me is fruit of my labor, and what I shall choose I do not know.
|
22. But G1161 if G1487 I live G2198 in G1722 the flesh G4561 , this G5124 is the fruit G2590 of my G3427 labor G2041 : yet G2532 what G5101 I shall choose G138 I wot G1107 not G3756 .
|
|
23. For I am pressed together by the two: having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better,
|
23. For G1063 I am in a strait G4912 between G1537 two G1417 , having G2192 a desire G1939 to depart G360 , and G2532 to be G1511 with G4862 Christ G5547 ; which is far G4183 G3123 better G2909 :
|
|
24. but to remain in the flesh is more necessary on account of you.
|
24. Nevertheless G1161 to abide G1961 in G1722 the G3588 flesh G4561 is more needful G316 for G1223 you G5209 .
|
|
25. And being persuaded of this, I know that I will remain and will continue with you all for your advancement and joy of faith,
|
25. And G2532 having this confidence G3982 G5124 , I know G1492 that G3754 I shall abide G3306 and G2532 continue with G4839 you G5213 all G3956 for G1519 your G5216 furtherance G4297 and G2532 joy G5479 of faith G4102 ;
|
|
26. so that your glorying may abound in Christ Jesus in me through my presence with you again.
|
26. That G2443 your G5216 rejoicing G2745 may be more abundant G4052 in G1722 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 for G1722 me G1698 by G1223 my G1699 coming G3952 to G4314 you G5209 again G3825 .
|
|
27. Only behave yourself worthily of the gospel of Christ, so that whether coming and seeing you or being absent, I hear the things concerning you, that you stand fast in one spirit and one soul, striving together in the faith of the gospel,
|
27. Only G3440 let your conversation be G4176 as it becometh G516 the G3588 gospel G2098 of Christ G5547 : that G2443 whether G1535 I come G2064 and G2532 see G1492 you G5209 , or else G1535 be absent G548 , I may hear G191 of your affairs G5216 G4012 , that G3754 ye stand fast G4739 in G1722 one G1520 spirit G4151 , with one G3391 mind G5590 striving together G4866 for the G3588 faith G4102 of the G3588 gospel G2098 ;
|
|
28. and not being terrified in anything by those who oppose, which to them truly is a proof of destruction, but to you of salvation, and this from God;
|
28. And G2532 in G1722 nothing G3367 terrified G4426 G3361 by G5259 your adversaries G480 : which G3748 is G2076 to them G846 an G3303 evident token G1732 of perdition G684 , but G1161 to you G5213 of salvation G4991 , and G2532 that G5124 of G575 God G2316 .
|
|
29. because it was granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer on His behalf,
|
29. For G3754 unto you G5213 it is given G5483 in the behalf G5228 of Christ G5547 , not G3756 only G3440 to believe G4100 on G1519 him G846 , but G235 also G2532 to suffer G3958 for his sake G5228 G846 ;
|
|
30. having the same struggle which you saw in me and now hear to be in me.
|
30. Having G2192 the G3588 same G846 conflict G73 which G3634 ye saw G1492 in G1722 me G1698 , and G2532 now G3568 hear G191 to be in G1722 me G1698 .
