Now I would have you know, brethren, that what I have gone through has turned out to the furtherance of the Good News rather than otherwise.

so that my bonds are manifest in Christ through the whole palace, and all other places;

and most of the brothers in the Lord, made confident in the Lord through my imprisonment, are much emboldened to speak God's message with free and fearless confidence.

Certain, indeed, even through envy and contention, and certain also through good-will, do preach the Christ;

For I know that these things will turn out to my salvation through your prayers and a rich supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

as I heartily look for and hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed: but that with all confidence, as always in times past, even so now Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be through life, or else death.

Never worry about anything. Instead, in every situation let your petitions be made known to God through prayers and requests, with thanksgiving.

My God fulfill all your needs through his glorious riches in Jesus Christ.

To our God and Father be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
