1 From Paul Paulos and kai Timothy Timotheos, servants of Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous, to all pas the ho saints hagios in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous who ho are eimi in en Philippi Philippoi, along with syn the overseers episkopos and kai deacons diakonos: 2 Grace charis to you hymeis and kai peace eirēnē from apo God theos our hēmeis Father patēr and kai the Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos.
3 I thank eucharisteō · ho my egō God theos every time epi · ho I remember mneia you hymeis. 4 Always pantote in en every pas prayer deēsis of mine egō for hyper all pas of you hymeis I pray ho with meta joy chara, 5 because epi of · ho your hymeis partnership koinōnia in eis the ho gospel euangelion from apo the ho first prōtos day hēmera until achri · ho now nyn. 6 For I am confident peithō of this very autos thing houtos, that hoti he ho who began enarchomai a good agathos work ergon in en you hymeis will bring it to completion epiteleō at achri the day hēmera of Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous. 7 It is eimi right dikaios for me egō to feel phroneō this houtos way about hyper all pas of you hymeis, because dia I egō have echō you hymeis in en my ho heart kardia, since both te in en · ho my egō imprisonment desmos and kai in en the ho defense apologia and kai confirmation bebaiōsis of the ho gospel euangelion, you hymeis all pas share with synkoinōnos me egō in the ho grace charis of God. 8 For gar God theos is my egō witness martys · ho that hōs I long epipotheō for all pas of you hymeis with en the affection splanchnon of Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous. 9 And kai this houtos I pray proseuchomai, that hina · ho your hymeis love agapē may abound perisseuō more mallon and kai more mallon, with en knowledge epignōsis and kai all pas discernment aisthēsis, 10 so that eis you hymeis may determine dokimazō what ho is essential diapherō, and so hina be eimi pure eilikrinēs and kai without blame aproskopos on eis the day hēmera of Christ Christos, 11 filled with plēroō the fruit karpos of righteousness dikaiosynē that ho comes through dia Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos, to eis the glory doxa and kai praise epainos of God theos.
12 Now de I want boulomai you hymeis to know ginōskō, brothers adelphos, that hoti what ho has happened to kata me egō has turned out erchomai to eis advance prokopē the ho gospel euangelion even more mallon, 13 so that hōste it has become ginomai known phaneros throughout en the ho entire holos palace guard praitōrion, and kai by ho everyone pas else loipos, that · ho my egō imprisonment desmos is for en Christ Christos, 14 and kai that · ho most polys of the ho brothers adelphos, having gained confidence peithō in en the Lord kyrios by ho my egō imprisonment desmos, dare tolmaō more than ever perissoterōs to speak laleō the ho word logos of God without fear aphobōs.
15 To be sure men, some tis · kai are proclaiming kēryssō Christ Christos out of dia envy phthonos and kai strife eris, but de others tis · kai out dia of goodwill eudokia. · ho 16 The ho latter men do it out of ek love agapē, knowing oida that hoti I am here keimai for eis the defense apologia of the ho gospel euangelion. 17 The ho former de proclaim katangellō Christ Christos out of ek a sense of hostility eritheia, · ho not ou sincerely hagnōs, intending oiomai to increase egeirō my distress thlipsis while I egō am in ho prison desmos.
18 What tis then gar? Only plēn that hoti in every pas way tropos, whether eite in pretense prophasis or eite in truth alētheia, Christ Christos is proclaimed katangellō; and kai in en that houtos I rejoice chairō. Yes alla, and kai I will continue to rejoice chairō. 19 For gar I know oida that hoti this houtos will turn out apobainō for eis my egō deliverance sōtēria through dia · ho your hymeis prayers deēsis and kai the help epichorēgia of the ho Spirit pneuma of Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos. 20 It is kata · ho my egō earnest expectation apokaradokia and kai hope elpis that hoti I will in en no way oudeis be put to shame, but alla that with en complete pas boldness parrēsia, now nyn as hōs always pantote, · kai Christ Christos will be exalted megalynō in en · ho my egō body sōma, whether eite by dia life zōē or eite by dia death thanatos. 21 For gar to me egō, to live zaō is Christ Christos and kai to die apothnēskō is gain kerdos. 22 If ei · de I am to go on living zaō in en the flesh sarx, that houtos means fruitful karpos labor ergon for me egō; yet kai I do gnōrizō not ou know gnōrizō which tis I would prefer haireō. 23 I am hard pressed synechō · de between ek the ho two dyo, in that I have echō the ho desire epithumia to eis depart analyō and kai be eimi with syn Christ Christos, for gar that is much mallon better kreittōn by far polys, 24 yet de for dia your hymeis sake dia it is better anankaios that I remain epimenō in en the ho flesh sarx. 25 So kai, convinced of peithō this houtos, I know oida that hoti I will remain menō, and kai I will continue paramenō with all pas of you hymeis for eis · ho your hymeis progress prokopē and kai joy chara in the ho faith pistis, 26 so that hina when dia I emos come parousia again palin to pros you hymeis, · ho your hymeis boasting kauchēma in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous might abound perisseuō because en of me egō. · ho
27 Only monon conduct yourselves politeuomai in a manner worthy axiōs of the ho gospel euangelion of ho Christ Christos, so that hina, whether eite I come erchomai and kai see you hymeis or eite remain apeimi away , I may hear akouō that hoti you are standing stēkō firm in en one heis spirit pneuma, striving side by side with synathleō one heis mind psychē for the ho faith pistis of the ho gospel euangelion, 28 and kai are in en no way mēdeis frightened ptyrō by hypo your ho opponents antikeimai. This hostis is eimi a sign endeixis of destruction apōleia for them autos, but de of salvation sōtēria for you hymeis— and kai that houtos from apo God theos. 29 For hoti it has been granted charizomai to you hymeis on behalf of hyper Christ Christos, not ou only monon to believe pisteuō in eis him autos but alla also kai to suffer paschō for hyper him autos, 30 since you are experiencing echō the ho same autos conflict agōn which hoios you saw me egō in en, and kai now nyn hear akouō that I egō still face en.
Philippians 1
Expanded Bible
1 From Paul and Timothy [2:19–24; Acts 16:1–5; 1 Cor. 16:10–11; 1 and 2 Timothy], ·servants [slaves; bondservants] of Christ Jesus.
To all of ·God’s holy people [T the saints] in Christ Jesus who live in Philippi [C a city located in Macedonia, present-day northern Greece; Acts 16], including your ·overseers [T bishops; C perhaps the same as elders] and ·deacons [servants; ministers]:
2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Paul’s Prayer
3 I thank my God every time I remember you, 4 always praying with joy for all of you. 5 I thank God for ·the help you gave me [L your partnership/participation] in ·spreading the Good News [L the Good News/Gospel] from the first day you believed until now. 6 God began doing a good work in you, and I am ·sure [confident; persuaded] he will continue it until it is ·finished [completed; perfected] ·when Jesus Christ comes again [L on the day of Christ Jesus; C the final day of judgment and reward].
7 And I know that I am right to think like this about all of you, because ·I have you in my [or you have me in your] heart. All of you ·share [are partners/co-sharers] in God’s grace with me while I am in ·prison [chains; C Paul is probably writing from house arrest in Rome, about ad 60; see Acts 28:30–31] and while I am defending and ·proving the truth of [confirming] the ·Good News [Gospel]. 8 [L For] God ·knows [L is my witness] that I ·want [long] to see you very much, because I love all of you with the ·love [affection] of Christ Jesus.
9 This is my prayer for you: that your love will ·grow [increase; abound] more and more; that you will have knowledge and ·understanding [insight; discernment] with your love; 10 that you will ·see the difference between good and bad and will choose the good [L discern/test and prove what is best]; that you will be pure and ·without wrong [blameless] ·for the coming [in the day; v. 6] of Christ; 11 that you will be filled with the ·good things produced in your life by Christ [L fruit of righteousness that comes through Christ] to bring glory and praise to God.
Paul’s Troubles Help the Work
12 I want you brothers and sisters to know that what has happened to me has helped to ·spread [advance] the ·Good News [Gospel]. 13 All the ·palace guards [imperial guard; L praetorium; C Caesar’s elite troops] and everyone else knows that I am in ·prison [chains] ·because I am a believer in [or for the cause of] Christ. 14 Because I am in prison, most of the ·believers [L brothers (and sisters)] have become more ·bold [confident] in the Lord and ·are not afraid [L dare without fear] to speak the word of God.
15 It is true that some preach about Christ because of ·jealousy [envy] and ·ambition [rivalry], but others preach about Christ because ·they want to help [of good will/intentions]. 16 They preach because they have love, and they know that ·God gave me the work of [I have been appointed for; or I have been put here (in prison) for] defending the ·Good News [Gospel]. 17 But the others preach about Christ for ·selfish [selfish ambition; or rivalry] and ·wrong reasons [not sincerely], wanting to make trouble for me in ·prison [my chains].
18 ·But it doesn’t matter [What difference does it make? or What is the result? L For what?]. The important thing is that in every way, whether ·for right or wrong reasons [from false motives or true], they are preaching about Christ. So ·I am happy [L in this I rejoice], ·and [indeed] I will continue to ·be happy [rejoice]. 19 Because I know ·this trouble [L this] will ·bring my [result in] ·freedom [deliverance; or salvation], through your prayers and the ·help of [support from] the Spirit of Jesus Christ. 20 I expect and hope that I will not ·fail Christ in [L be ashamed about] anything but that I will have the ·courage [boldness] now, as always, ·to show the greatness of Christ [or so that Christ will be exalted] in my ·life here on earth [L body], whether I live or die. 21 [L For] To me ·the only important thing about living [L to live] is Christ, and ·dying would be profit for me [L to die is gain/profit]. 22 If I continue living in my ·body [flesh], ·I will be able to work for the Lord [L this is productive/fruitful work for me]. I do not know what to choose—living or dying. 23 ·It is hard to choose [I am torn/hard pressed] between the two. I ·want [desire; long] to leave this life and be with Christ, which is much better, 24 but ·you need me here [or it is better for you that I remain] in ·my body [the flesh]. 25 Since I am sure of this, I know I will stay with you ·to help you grow and have [L for your progress/success and] joy in your faith. 26 [L …so that] ·You will be very happy [or Because of me, your confidence/pride will increase; L Your boasting in me will abound] in Christ Jesus when I am with you again.
27 ·Only one thing concerns me [or Whatever happens; L Only]: Be sure that you ·live [conduct yourselves; live as citizens] in a way that ·brings honor to [is worthy of] the ·Good News [Gospel] of Christ. ·Then [L …so that] whether I come and ·visit [see] you or am away from you, I will hear that you are standing strong ·with one purpose [with one spirit; or in the one Spirit], that you work together ·as one [with one mind/soul] for the faith ·of [or that is; or in] the ·Good News [Gospel], 28 and that you are not ·frightened [intimidated] in any way by ·those who are against you [your opponents]. All of this is ·proof [evidence; a sign] that ·your enemies [they] will be destroyed but that you will be saved. And ·this salvation [or this proof/evidence/sign; L this] is from God. 29 ·God gave you the honor [L For it has been granted/given to you] not only of believing in Christ but also of suffering for him. 30 You yourselves are having the same kind of struggles that you saw ·I had when I was with you [L in me], and ·you hear that I am still having now [L now hear in me].
