being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ:

being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

and that most of the brethren in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word of God without fear.

make full my joy, that ye be of the same mind, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;

who, existing in the form of God, counted not the being on an equality with God a thing to be grasped,

but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men;

and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, yea, the death of the cross.
