Philippians 1

Revised Standard Version RSV

1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philip'pi, with the bishops and deacons:

2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 I thank my God in all my remembrance of you,

4 always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy,

5 thankful for your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now.

6 And I am sure that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

7 It is right for me to feel thus about you all, because I hold you in my heart, for you are all partakers with me of grace, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel.

8 For God is my witness, how I yearn for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus.

9 And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment,

10 so that you may approve what is excellent, and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,

11 filled with the fruits of righteousness which come through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

12 I want you to know, brethren, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel,

13 so that it has become known throughout the whole praetorian guard and to all the rest that my imprisonment is for Christ;

14 and most of the brethren have been made confident in the Lord because of my imprisonment, and are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear.

15 Some indeed preach Christ from envy and rivalry, but others from good will.

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

17 the former proclaim Christ out of partisanship, not sincerely but thinking to afflict me in my imprisonment.

18 What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and in that I rejoice.

19 Yes, and I shall rejoice. For I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my deliverance,

20 as it is my eager expectation and hope that I shall not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death.

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

22 If it is to be life in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell.

23 I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better.

24 But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account.

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

26 so that in me you may have ample cause to glory in Christ Jesus, because of my coming to you again.

27 Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you stand firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel,

28 and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear omen to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God.

29 For it has been granted to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him but also suffer for his sake,

30 engaged in the same conflict which you saw and now hear to be mine.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 Paulus et Timotheus servi Iesu Christi omnibus sanctis in Christo Iesu qui sunt Philippis cum episcopis et diaconis

2 gratia vobis et pax a Deo Patre nostro et Domino Iesu Christo

3 gratias ago Deo meo in omni memoria vestri

4 semper in cunctis orationibus meis pro omnibus vobis cum gaudio deprecationem faciens

5 super communicatione vestra in evangelio a prima die usque nunc

6 confidens hoc ipsum quia qui coepit in vobis opus bonum perficiet usque in diem Christi Iesu

7 sicut est mihi iustum hoc sentire pro omnibus vobis eo quod habeam in corde vos et in vinculis meis et in defensione et confirmatione evangelii socios gaudii mei omnes vos esse

8 testis enim mihi est Deus quomodo cupiam omnes vos in visceribus Christi Iesu

9 et hoc oro ut caritas vestra magis ac magis abundet in scientia et omni sensu

10 ut probetis potiora ut sitis sinceres et sine offensa in diem Christi

11 repleti fructu iustitiae per Christum Iesum in gloriam et laudem Dei

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

27 tantum digne evangelio Christi conversamini ut sive cum venero et videro vos sive absens audiam de vobis quia stetistis uno spiritu unianimes conlaborantes fide evangelii

28 et in nullo terreamini ab adversariis quae est illis causa perditionis vobis autem salutis et hoc a Deo

29 quia vobis donatum est pro Christo non solum ut in eum credatis sed ut etiam pro illo patiamini

30 eundem certamen habentes qualem et vidistis in me et nunc audistis de me
