It is even right for me to think this way on behalf of all of you, because I have you in my heart, because, both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the Good News, you all are partakers with me of grace.

What does it matter? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed. I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice.

according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will in no way be disappointed, but with all boldness, as always, now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death.

Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ, that, whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

In the same way, you also rejoice, and rejoice with me.

Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.

Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.

I exhort Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to think the same way in the Lord.
