Phil 1:11: Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

Phil 1:12: But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

Phil 1:13: So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;

Phil 1:14: And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

Phil 1:15: Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

Phil 1:16: The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:

Phil 1:17: But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

Phil 1:18: What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

Phil 1:19: For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

Phil 1:20: According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

Phil 1:21: For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

Phil 1:22: But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.

Phil 1:23: For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:

Phil 1:24: Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.

Phil 1:25: And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;

Phil 1:26: That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.
