English Standard Version
Philippians 1:16-21
16The latter do it out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel.
17The former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely but thinking to afflict me in my imprisonment.
18What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed, and in that I rejoice. Yes, and I will rejoice,
19for I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my deliverance,
20as it is my eager expectation and hope that I will not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death.
21For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
