But if I go on living in the flesh--if this is the fruit of my work--then I do not see what decision to make.

Only let your behaviour do credit to the good news of Christ, so that if I come and see you or if I am away from you, I may have news of you that you are strong in one spirit, working together with one soul for the faith of the good news;

To whom, though himself in the form of God, it did not seem that to take for oneself was to be like God;

And being seen in form as a man, he took the lowest place, and let himself be put to death, even the death of the cross.

So that you may be holy and gentle, children of God without sin in a twisted and foolish generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world,

Him then I am hoping to send as quickly as possible, when I am able to see how things will go for me:

I have sent him, then, the more gladly, so that when you see him again, you may be happy and I may have the less sorrow.

And be seen in him, not having my righteousness which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

And I make request to you, true helper in my work, to see to the needs of those women who took part with me in the good news, with Clement and the rest of my brother-workers whose names are in the book of life.
