Philippians 1:16-21

16the latterG3303 do it out of loveG26, knowingG3609 that I am appointedG2749 for the defenseG627 of the 1gospelG2098; 17the formerG3588G1161 proclaimG2605 ChristG5547 2out of selfishG2052 ambitionG2052 3ratherG3756 thanG3756 from pureG55 motivesG55, thinkingG3633 to causeG1453 me distressG2347 in my 45imprisonmentG1199. 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 6deliveranceG4991 7throughG1223 your 8prayersG1162 and the provisionG2024 of 9the SpiritG4151 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, 20accordingG2596 to my 10earnestG603 expectationG603 and 11hopeG1680, that I will not be putG153 to shameG153 in anythingG3762, but that with 12allG3956 boldnessG3954, ChristG5547 will evenG2532 nowG3568, as alwaysG3842, be 13exaltedG3170 in my bodyG4983, 14whetherG1535 by lifeG2222 orG1535 by deathG2288. 21For to me, 15to liveG2198 is ChristG5547 and to dieG599 is gainG2771.
