Philippians 1:3-11

31I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, 4always offering prayer with joy in 2my every prayer for you all, 5in view of your 34participation in the 5gospel 6from the first day until now. 6For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until 7the day of Christ Jesus. 78For 9it is only right for me to feel this way about you all, because I 10have you in my heart, since both in my 1112imprisonment and in the 13defense and confirmation of the 14gospel, you all are partakers of grace with me. 8For 15God is my witness, how I long for you all with the 16affection of 17Christ Jesus. 9And this I pray, that 18your love may abound still more and more in 19real knowledge and all discernment, 10so that you may 2021approve the things that are excellent, in order to be sincere and blameless 22until 23the day of Christ; 11having been filled with the 24fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
