Philippians 1:12-26

The Latin Vulgate w/ Apocrypha VULA

12 scire autem vos volo fratres quia quae circa me sunt magis ad profectum venerunt evangelii

13 ita ut vincula mea manifesta fierent in Christo in omni praetorio et in ceteris omnibus

14 et plures e fratribus in Domino confidentes vinculis meis abundantius audere sine timore verbum Dei loqui

15 quidam quidem et propter invidiam et contentionem quidam autem et propter bonam voluntatem Christum praedicant

16 quidam ex caritate scientes quoniam in defensionem evangelii positus sum

17 quidam autem ex contentione Christum adnuntiant non sincere existimantes pressuram se suscitare vinculis meis

18 quid enim dum omni modo sive per occasionem sive per veritatem Christus adnuntiatur et in hoc gaudeo sed et gaudebo

19 scio enim quia hoc mihi proveniet in salutem per vestram orationem et subministrationem Spiritus Iesu Christi

20 secundum expectationem et spem meam quia in nullo confundar sed in omni fiducia sicut semper et nunc magnificabitur Christus in corpore meo sive per vitam sive per mortem

21 mihi enim vivere Christus est et mori lucrum

22 quod si vivere in carne hic mihi fructus operis est et quid eligam ignoro

23 coartor autem e duobus desiderium habens dissolvi et cum Christo esse multo magis melius

24 permanere autem in carne magis necessarium est propter vos

25 et hoc confidens scio quia manebo et permanebo omnibus vobis ad profectum vestrum et gaudium fidei

26 ut gratulatio vestra abundet in Christo Iesu in me per meum adventum iterum ad vos

New International Version NIV

12 Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that what has happened to me has actually served to advance the gospel.

13 As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ.

14 And because of my chains, most of the brothers and sisters have become confident in the Lord and dare all the more to proclaim the gospel without fear.

15 It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill.

16 The latter do so out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel.

17 The former preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can stir up trouble for me while I am in chains.

18 But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice. Yes, and I will continue to rejoice,

19 for I know that through your prayers and God’s provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ what has happened to me will turn out for my deliverance.

20 I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.

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

22 If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. Yet what shall I choose? I do not know!

23 I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far;

24 but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.

25 Convinced of this, I know that I will remain, and I will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith,

26 so that through my being with you again your boasting in Christ Jesus will abound on account of me.
