Philippians 2:13-17

New International Version

¹³ for it is God who works in you^(A) to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.^(B)

¹⁴ Do everything without grumbling^(C) or arguing, ¹⁵ so that you may become blameless^(D) and pure, “children of God^(E) without fault in a warped and crooked generation.”^[a](F) Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky ¹⁶ as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ^(G) that I did not run^(H) or labor in vain.^{(I) 17} But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering^(J) on the sacrifice^(K) and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you.^(L)
