Philippians 1:9-13

New Living Translation

⁹ I pray that your love will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in knowledge and understanding. ¹⁰ For I want you to understand what really matters, so that you may live pure and blameless lives until the day of Christ’s return. ¹¹ May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation—the righteous character produced in your life by Jesus Christ^[a]—for this will bring much glory and praise to God.

Paul’s Joy That Christ Is Preached

¹² And I want you to know, my dear brothers and sisters,^[b] that everything that has happened to me here has helped to spread the Good News. ¹³ For everyone here, including the whole palace guard,^[c] knows that I am in chains because of Christ.
