14 Do all things without (A)complaining or arguments; 15 so that you will [a]prove yourselves to be (B)blameless and innocent, (C)children of God above reproach in the midst of a (D)crooked and perverse generation, among whom you [b](E)appear as [c]lights in the world, 16 holding firmly the word of life, so that on (F)the day of Christ I can take pride because I did not (G)run in vain nor (H)labor in vain. 17 But even if I am being (I)poured out as a drink offering upon (J)the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice and share my joy with you all. 18 You too, I urge you, rejoice in the same way and share your joy with me.

14 Do all things without grumbling and disputing, 15 in order that you may become blameless and innocent, children of God without fault[a] in the midst of a crooked and perverted generation, among whom you shine as stars in the world,[b] 16 holding fast to the word of life, for a source of pride[c] to me in the day of Christ, that I did not run in vain or labor in vain. 17 But even if I am being poured out as a drink offering on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice and rejoice with all of you. 18 And in the same way also you rejoice and rejoice with me.
