< Philippians 1 >

1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Jesus Christ, —unto all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with overseers and ministers: —
Paul and Timothy servants of Christ Jesus To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are being in Philippi with [the] overseers and deacons:
2 Favour unto you, and peace, from God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ.
Grace to you and peace from God Father of us and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.
3 I am giving thanks unto my God, on occasion of all my remembrance of you,
I thank the God of mine upon every the remembrance of you
4 At all times, in every supplication of mine, in behalf of you all, with joy, my supplication, making, —
always in every supplication of mine for all of you with joy the supplication making
5 On account of your contribution unto the glad-message, from the first day until the present:
for the partnership of you in the gospel from (the *no) first day until now;
6 Being persuaded of this very thing—that, he who hath begun in you a good work, will perfect it, until the day of Jesus Christ;
having been persuaded of [the] very thing this, that the [One] having begun in you a work good will complete [it] until [the] day of Christ Jesus;
7 According as it is right in me to have this regard in behalf of you all, —because ye have had me in your hearts, both in my bonds and in the defence and confirmation of the glad-message, all of you being, joint partakers of my favour.
Even as it is right for me myself this to feel about all of you since having I in the heart you, in both the chains of mine and in the defense and in confirmation of the gospel fellow partakers with me of grace all you are.
8 For God is, my witness, how I long for you all in the tender affections of Christ Jesus.
Witness for of mine (is *k) God how I long after all you in [the] affection of Christ Jesus.
9 And, this, I pray—that, your love, may be, yet more and more, pre-eminent in personal knowledge and all perception,
And this I pray, that the love of you yet more and more may abound in knowledge and in all discernment
10 To the end ye may be putting to the test the things that differ, in order that ye may be incorrupt and may give no occasion of stumbling, unto the day of Christ,
for to approve you the [things] being excellent, so that you may be pure and blameless unto [the] day of Christ
11 Filled with that fruit of righteousness which is through Jesus Christ unto the glory and praise of God.
filled (with [the] fruit *N+KO) of righteousness (that [is] *N+kO) through Jesus Christ to [the] glory and praise of God.
12 Howbeit, I am minded, brethren, that ye should be, getting to know, that, the things which relate unto myself, rather, unto an advancement of the glad-message, have fallen out,
To know now you I want, brothers, that the [things] concerning me myself really to [the] advancement of the gospel have turned out,
13 So that, my bonds, have become manifest in Christ, in the whole palace, and unto all the rest, —
so as for the chains of mine clearly known in Christ to have become in all the palace guard and to the rest all
14 And [so that], the most of the brethren in the Lord, assured by my bonds, are becoming more abundantly bold to be fearlessly speaking the word of God: —
and most of the brothers in [the] Lord already trusting by the chains of mine more abundantly to dare fearlessly the word (of the God *O) to speak.
15 Some, indeed, by reason of envy and strife—some, however, by reason of good will—are proclaiming, the Christ:
Some indeed even from envy and strife, some however also from goodwill Christ are proclaiming.
16 These, indeed, out of love, knowing that, for the defence of the glad-message, I am set;
the [ones] indeed out of love knowing that for defense of the gospel I am appointed;
17 But, those, out of faction, are declaring, the Christ, not purely—supposing to rouse up, tribulation, with my bonds.
the [ones] however out of selfish ambition Christ are proclaiming not purely supposing tribulation (to add *N+kO) to the chains of mine.
18 What then? That, in any way, whether in pretext, or in truth, Christ, is declared, and, in this, I rejoice—yea, and will rejoice!
What then? Only (that *no) in every way whether in pretext or in truth Christ is proclaimed, And in this I rejoice Yes and I will rejoice.
19 For I know that, this, shall turn unto me for salvation—through your supplication, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, —
I know for that this for me will turn out to deliverance through your prayer and [the] provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ
20 According to my eager outlook and hope, that, in nothing, shall I be put to shame, but, with all freedom of speech, as always, now also, shall Christ be magnified in my body, whether through means of life, or of death.
according to the earnest expectation and hope of mine that in no [thing] I will be ashamed but in all boldness as always also now will be magnified Christ in the body of mine, whether through life or through death.
21 For, unto me—living, is Christ, and, dying, gain.
To me myself for to live [is] Christ and to die [is] gain.
22 But, if living in flesh, [is Christ], this, unto me, is a fruit of work, —and, what I shall choose, I make not known:
If [I am] however to live in flesh, this for me [is the] fruit of labor; And what will I choose Not I know!
23 I am held in constraint, however, by reason of the two, —having, the coveting, to be released, and to be with, Christ, for it were far better!
I am pressed (now *N+kO) between the two, the desire having for [myself] to depart and with Christ to be, very much (for *no) more better;
24 But, to abide still in the flesh, is more needful for your sake;
but to remain in the flesh [is] more necessary for the sake of you.
25 And, of, this, being assured, know that I shall abide, —yea abide with you all, for your advancement, and the joy of your faith;
And this having been persuaded of I know that I will remain and (will continue *N+kO) with all of you for your progress and joy of the faith,
26 In order that, your matter of boasting, may be more abundant in Christ Jesus, regarding me, through my own presence again with you.
so that the boasting of you may abound to Christ Jesus in me myself through my coming again to you.
27 Only, in a manner worthy of the glad-message of the Christ, be using your citizenship; in order that—whether coming and seeing you, or being absent, I may hear of the things which concern you—that ye are standing fast in one spirit, with one soul, joining for the combat along with the faith of the glad-message;
Only worthily of the gospel of Christ do conduct yourselves, so that whether having come and having seen you or being absent (I shall hear *N+kO) the [things] concerning you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel,
28 And not being affrighted in anything by the opposers, —the which, is, unto them, a token of destruction, although of your salvation, and this from God;
and not being frightened in nothing by those opposing [you]; which is to them (indeed *k) a demonstration of destruction, (to you *N+kO) however of salvation, and this from God;
29 Because, unto you, hath it been given as a favour, in behalf of Christ, not only, on him, to believe, but also, in his behalf, to suffer: —
For to you it has been granted concerning Christ, not only in Him to believe, but also concerning Him to suffer
30 Having, the same contest, which ye have seen in me, and now hear to be in me.
the same conflict having such as (you saw *N+kO) in me myself and now you hear of in me myself.
