Philippians 1:19-26

21st Century King James Version

¹⁹ For I know that this shall turn out to my salvation through your prayer and the support of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

²⁰ according to my earnest expectation and my hope that in nothing shall I be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always so now also, Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life or by death.

²¹ For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

²² But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labor; yet what I shall choose, I know not.

²³ For I am in a strait between the two, having a desire to depart and to be with Christ, which is far better;

²⁴ nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.

²⁵ And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy in faith,

²⁶ that your rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again.
