Philippians 1:12-20

12NowG1161 I wantG1014 you to knowG1097, brethrenG80, that my circumstancesG3588G2596 1have turnedG2064 out for the greaterG3123 progressG4297 of the 2gospelG2098, 13soG5620 that my 34imprisonmentG1199 in the cause of ChristG5547 has becomeG1096 wellG5318 knownG5318 throughoutG1722 the wholeG3650 5praetorianG4232 guardG4232 and to 6everyoneG3956 elseG3062, 14and that mostG4183 of the 7brethrenG80, trustingG3982 in the LordG2962 because of my 89imprisonmentG1199, haveG5111 10farG4057 moreG4057 courageG5111 to speakG2980 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 withoutG870 fearG870. 1511SomeG5100, to be sureG3303, are preachingG2784 ChristG5547 evenG2532 12from envyG5355 and strifeG2054, but someG5100 alsoG2532 13from goodG2107 willG2107; 16the latterG3303 do it out of loveG26, knowingG3609 that I am appointedG2749 for the defenseG627 of the 14gospelG2098; 17the formerG3588G1161 proclaimG2605 ChristG5547 15out of selfishG2052 ambitionG2052 16ratherG3756 thanG3756 from pureG55 motivesG55, thinkingG3633 to causeG1453 me distressG2347 in my 1718imprisonmentG1199. 18WhatG5101 thenG1063? OnlyG4133 that in everyG3956 wayG5158, whetherG1535 in pretenseG4392 orG1535 in truthG225, ChristG5547 is proclaimedG2605; and in thisG3778 I rejoiceG5463.

YesG235, and I will rejoiceG5463, 19for I knowG3609 that thisG3778 will turnG576 out for my 19deliveranceG4991 20throughG1223 your 21prayersG1162 and the provisionG2024 of 22the SpiritG4151 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, 20accordingG2596 to my 23earnestG603 expectationG603 and 24hopeG1680, that I will not be putG153 to shameG153 in anythingG3762, but that with 25allG3956 boldnessG3954, ChristG5547 will evenG2532 nowG3568, as alwaysG3842, be 26exaltedG3170 in my bodyG4983, 27whetherG1535 by lifeG2222 orG1535 by deathG2288.
