1 Paul, and Timotheos, bondmen of Christ Yahshua, to all the saints among the number of Christ Yahshua who are in Philippos, along with the supervisors and ministers:2 Favor to you, and peace from Yahweh our Father and Prince Yahshua Christ.3 I thank my God upon every mention of you,4 always in my every supplication, making supplication with joy on behalf of you all5 for your partnership in the good message; from the first day until now6 being persuaded of this very thing: that he who begins a good work among you will discharge it until the day of Christ Yahshua.7 Just as it is righteous for me to think this concerning all of you, because for you to have me in heart, both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the good message, you are all joint-partakers of my favor.8 For my witness is Yahweh, that I yearn for you all in the affections of Christ Yahshua.9 And this I pray, that your love would still more and more abound in knowledge and in all understanding,10 for you to examine those things that differ, in order that you would be pure and not stumbling unto the day of Christ,11 being filled with fruit of righteousness which is through Yahshua Christ, for the honor and praise of Yahweh.12 Now I wish you to know, brethren, that those things concerning me have gone still more to the advancement of the good message,13 so that my bonds in Christ have become manifest to the whole Praetorium and to all the rest;14 and most of the brethren among the number of the Prince, trusting in my bonds, venture more exceedingly to speak the word of Yahweh fearlessly.15 Some indeed even because of envy and strife, but some also by approval are proclaiming the Christ.16 Surely these out of love, knowing that I am set for a defense of the good message,17 but those out of contention are declaring the Christ not purely, supposing to stir up tribulation in my bonds.18 What then? That in every way, whether in pretext or in truth, Christ is declared, and in this I rejoice. And surely I will rejoice.19 For I know that this for me will result in preservation, through your supplication and the additional fortune of the Spirit of Yahshua Christ20 in accordance with my eager expectation and hope, seeing that in nothing shall I be ashamed, but with all freespokenness - as always - even now Christ shall be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.21 For me to live anointed and to die is gain.22 But if to live in flesh, this for me a fruit of labor, then I know not which I prefer.23 I am afflicted by the two, having the desire for which to depart, and to be with Christ, very much the better;24 but to continue in the flesh is of more necessity for your sake.25 And persuaded of this, I know that I shall abide and remain with you all for your advancement and joy of the faith26 that your boast may be abundant in Christ Yahshua in respect of me, because of my presence again with you.27 Only conduct yourselves worthily of the good message of the Anointed, in order that whether coming and seeing you, or being away, I hear of the things concerning you, that you stand in one spirit, in one soul together striving in the faith of the good message.28 And in nothing being frightened by the opposition, which to them is an indication of destruction, but of your preservation, and this from Yahweh.29 Because to you it has been offered concerning Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also in behalf of Him to suffer,30 having that same struggle like you have seen with me, and now you hear of with me.
