Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1You yourselves know, brothers, that our visit to you was not in vain.
1弟兄们，你们自己原晓得我们进到你们那里并不是徒然的。
2As you are aware, we had already endured suffering and shameful treatment in Philippi. But in the face of strong opposition, we were bold in our God to speak to you the gospel of God.
2我们从前在 腓立比 被害受辱，这是你们知道的；然而还是靠我们的 神放开胆量，在大争战中把 神的福音传给你们。
3For our appeal does not arise from deceit or ulterior motives or trickery.
3我们的劝勉不是出于错误，不是出于污秽，也不是用诡诈。
4Instead, we speak as those approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, not in order to please men but God, who examines our hearts.
4但 神既然验中了我们，把福音托付我们，我们就照样讲，不是要讨人喜欢，乃是要讨那察验我们心的 神喜欢。
5As you know, we never used words of flattery or any pretext for greed. God is our witness!
5因为我们从来没有用过谄媚的话，这是你们知道的；也没有藏着贪心，这是 神可以作见证的。
6Nor did we seek praise from you or from anyone else, although as apostles of Christ we had authority to demand it.
6我们作基督的使徒，虽然可以叫人尊重，却没有向你们或向别人求荣耀；
7On the contrary, we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother caring for her children.
7只在你们中间存心温柔，如同母亲乳养自己的孩子。
8We cared so deeply that we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God, but our own lives as well. That is how beloved you have become to us.
8我们既是这样爱你们，不但愿意将 神的福音给你们，连自己的性命也愿意给你们，因你们是我们所疼爱的。
9Surely you recall, brothers, our labor and toil. We worked night and day so that we would not be a burden to anyone while we proclaimed to you the gospel of God.
9弟兄们，你们记念我们的辛苦劳碌，昼夜做工，传 神的福音给你们，免得叫你们一人受累。
10You are witnesses, and so is God, of how holy, righteous, and blameless our conduct was among you who believed.
10我们向你们信 主 的人，是何等圣洁、公义、无可指摘，有你们作见证，也有 神作见证。
11For you know that we treated each of you as a father treats his own children—
11你们也晓得，我们怎样劝勉你们，安慰你们，嘱咐你们各人，好像父亲待自己的儿女一样，
12encouraging you, comforting you, and urging you to walk in a manner worthy of God, who calls you into His own kingdom and glory.
12要叫你们行事对得起那召你们进他国、得他荣耀的 神。
13And we continually thank God because, when you received the word of God that you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as the true word of God—the word which is now at work in you who believe.
13为此，我们也不住地感谢 神，因你们听见我们所传 神的道就领受了；不以为是人的道，乃以为是 神的道。这道实在是 神的，并且运行在你们信 主 的人心中。
14For you, brothers, became imitators of the churches of God in Judea that are in Christ Jesus. You suffered from your own countrymen the very things they suffered from the Jews,
14弟兄们，你们曾效法 犹太 中在基督耶稣里 神的各教会；因为你们也受了本地人的苦害，像他们受了 犹太 人的苦害一样。
15who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and drove us out as well. They are displeasing to God and hostile to all men,
15这 犹太 人杀了主耶稣和先知，又把我们赶出去。他们不得 神的喜悦，且与众人为敌，
16hindering us from telling the Gentiles how they may be saved. As a result, they continue to heap up their sins to full capacity; the utmost wrath has come upon them.
16不许我们传道给外邦人使外邦人得救，常常充满自己的罪恶。 神的 忿怒临在他们身上已经到了极处。
17Brothers, although we were torn away from you for a short time (in person, not in heart), our desire to see you face to face was even more intense.
17弟兄们，我们暂时与你们离别，是面目离别，心里却不离别；我们极力地想法子，很愿意见你们的面。
18For we wanted to come to you—indeed I, Paul, tried again and again—but Satan obstructed us.
18所以我们有意到你们那里；我— 保罗 有一两次要去，只是撒但阻挡了我们。
19After all, who is our hope, our joy, our crown of boasting, if it is not you yourselves in the presence of our Lord Jesus at His coming?
19我们的盼望和喜乐，并所夸的冠冕是什么呢？岂不是我们主耶稣来的时候、你们在他面前站 立得住 吗？
20You are indeed our glory and our joy.
20因为你们就是我们的荣耀，我们的喜乐。
