Philippians 1:15-20

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

Whatever Their Motives, Christ Is Being Proclaimed

¹⁵ Some indeed speak because of envy and strife, but some also are proclaiming Christ because of good-will. ¹⁶ The ones speak out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the good-news; ¹⁷ but the others are proclaiming Christ out of selfish-interest, not purely, supposing to raise trouble in my imprisonment. ¹⁸ What indeed does it matter except that^[a] in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is being proclaimed!

Christ Will Be Magnified In Me, Whether I Live or Die

And I am rejoicing in this. But I also will rejoice, ¹⁹ for I know that this will turn-out for me for deliverance through your prayer and the provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, ²⁰ in-accordance-with my eager-expectation and hope that I will in no way be put-to-shame, but that with all boldness, as always, even now Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death—
