Philippians 1:10-22

10soG1519 thatG1519 you may 1 2discoverG1381 the things that are excellentG1308, that you may be sincereG1506 and blamelessG677 for 3the dayG2250 of ChristG5547; 11having been filledG4137 with the 4fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 which comes throughG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, for the gloryG1391 and praiseG1868 of GodG2316.

12NowG1161 I wantG1014 you to knowG1097, brothersG80 and sisters, that my circumstancesG3588 G2596 5have turnedG2064 outG2064 for the greaterG3123 progressG4297 of the 6gospelG2098, 13soG5620 thatG5620 my 7 8imprisonmentG1199 in the cause of ChristG5547 has becomeG1096 wellG5318 knownG5318 throughoutG1722 G3650 the 9praetorianG4232 guardG4232 and to 10everyoneG3956 elseG3062, 14and that mostG4183 of the brothersG80 and sisters, 11trustingG3982 in the LordG2962 because of my 12 13imprisonmentG1199, haveG5111 14farG4056 moreG4056 courageG5111 to speakG2980 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 withoutG870 fearG870. 15 15SomeG5100, to be sureG3303, are preachingG2784 ChristG5547 evenG2532 16from envyG5355 and strifeG2054, but someG5100 alsoG2532 17from goodwillG2107; 16the latterG3303 do it out of loveG26, knowingG3609 that I am appointedG2749 for the defenseG627 of the 18gospelG2098; 17the formerG3588 G1161 proclaimG2605 ChristG5547 19out of selfishG2052 ambitionG2052 20ratherG3756 thanG3756 from pureG55 motivesG55, thinkingG3633 that they are causingG1453 me distressG2347 in my 21 22imprisonmentG1199. 18WhatG5101 thenG1063? OnlyG4133 that in everyG3956 wayG5158, whetherG1535 in pretenseG4392 orG1535 in truthG225, ChristG5547 is proclaimedG2605, and in thisG3778 I rejoiceG5463.

But not only that, I alsoG2532 will rejoiceG5463, 19for I knowG3609 that thisG3778 will turnG576 outG576 for my 23deliveranceG4991 24throughG1223 your 25prayersG1162 and the provisionG2024 of 26the SpiritG4151 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, 20accordingG2596 to my 27eagerG603 expectationG603 and 28hopeG1680, that I will not be putG153 toG153 shameG153 in anythingG3762, but that with 29allG3956 boldnessG3954, ChristG5547 will evenG2532 nowG3568, as alwaysG3842, be 30exaltedG3170 in my bodyG4983, 31whetherG1535 by lifeG2222 orG1535 by deathG2288. 21For to me, 32to liveG2198 is ChristG5547, and to dieG599 is gainG2771. 22 33But ifG1487 I am to liveG2198 on in the fleshG4561, thisG3778 will mean 34fruitfulG2590 laborG2041 for me; and I do not knowG1107 35whichG5101 to chooseG138.
