Because of your help in giving the good news from the first day till now;

Now it is my purpose to make clear to you, brothers, that the cause of the good news has been helped by my experiences;

In the measure of my strong hope and belief that in nothing will I be put to shame, but that without fear, as at all times, so now will Christ have glory in my body, by life or by death.

Fighting the same fight which you saw in me, and now have word of in me.

So then, my loved ones, as you have at all times done what I say, not only when I am present, but now much more when I am not with you, give yourselves to working out your salvation with fear in your hearts;

Not as if I had even now got the reward or been made complete: but I go on in the hope that I may come to the knowledge of that for which I was made the servant of Christ Jesus.

For there are those, of whom I have given you word before, and do so now with sorrow, who are haters of the cross of Christ;

Now to God our Father be glory for ever and ever. So be it.
