Philippians 1:13-15
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
13 so that my imprisonment has become well known in Christ throughout the whole praetorium[a] and to all the rest,(A) 14 [b]and so that the majority of the brothers, having taken encouragement in the Lord from my imprisonment, dare more than ever to proclaim the word fearlessly.
15 Of course, some preach Christ from envy and rivalry, others from good will.

- 1:13 Praetorium: either the praetorian guard in the city where Paul was imprisoned or the governor’s official residence in a Roman province (cf. Mk 15:16; Acts 23:35). See Introduction on possible sites.
- 1:14–18 Although Paul is imprisoned, Christians there nonetheless go on preaching Christ. But they do so with varied motives, some with personal hostility toward Paul, others out of personal ambition.
Philippians 1:13-15
New International Version
13 As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard[a] and to everyone else that I am in chains(A) for Christ. 14 And because of my chains,(B) most of the brothers and sisters have become confident in the Lord and dare all the more to proclaim the gospel without fear.(C)
15 It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill.
