保罗因捆锁兴旺福音

12 弟兄们,我愿意你们知道,我所遭遇的事更是叫福音兴旺, 13 以致我受的捆锁在御营全军和其余的人中,已经显明是为基督的缘故; 14 并且那在主里的弟兄,多半因我受的捆锁就笃信不疑,越发放胆传神的道,无所惧怕。 15 有的传基督是出于嫉妒纷争,也有的是出于好意。 16 这一等是出于爱心,知道我是为辩明福音设立的; 17 那一等传基督是出于结党,并不诚实,意思要加增我捆锁的苦楚。 18 这有何妨呢?或是假意,或是真心,无论怎样,基督究竟被传开了。为此我就欢喜,并且还要欢喜。

15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:

18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
