腓立比書 1
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1基督耶穌的僕人 保羅 和 提摩太 寫信給凡住 腓立比 、在基督耶穌裏的眾聖徒，和諸位監督，諸位執事。
1Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus at Philippi, together with the overseers and deacons:
2願恩惠、平安從上帝我們的父並主耶穌基督歸與你們！
2Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3我每逢想念你們，就感謝我的上帝；
3I thank my God every time I remember you.
4每逢為你們眾人祈求的時候，常是歡歡喜喜地祈求。
4In every prayer for all of you, I always pray with joy,
5因為從頭一天直到如今，你們是同心合意地興旺福音。
5because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now,
6我深信那在你們心裏動了善工的，必成全這工，直到耶穌基督的日子。
6being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
7我為你們眾人有這樣的意念，原是應當的；因你們常在我心裏，無論我是在捆鎖之中，是辯明證實福音的時候，你們都與我一同得恩。
7It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart. For in my chains and in my defense and confirmation of the gospel, you are all partners in grace with me.
8我體會基督耶穌的心腸，切切地想念你們眾人；這是上帝可以給我作見證的。
8God is my witness how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus.
9我所禱告的，就是要你們的愛心在知識和各樣見識上多而又多，
9And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight,
10使你們能分別是非，作誠實無過的人，直到基督的日子；
10so that you may be able to test and prove what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,
11並靠着耶穌基督結滿了仁義的果子，叫榮耀稱讚歸與上帝。
11filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
12弟兄們，我願意你們知道，我所遭遇的事更是叫福音興旺，
12Now I want you to know, brothers, that my circumstances have actually served to advance the gospel.
13以致我受的捆鎖在御營全軍和其餘的人中，已經顯明是為基督的緣故。
13As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ.
14並且那在主裏的弟兄多半因我受的捆鎖就篤信不疑，越發放膽傳上帝的道，無所懼怕。
14And most of the brothers, confident in the Lord by my chains, now dare more greatly to speak the word without fear.
15有的傳基督是出於嫉妒紛爭，也有的是出於好意。
15It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill.
16這一等是出於愛心，知道我是為辯明福音設立的；
16The latter do so in love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel.
17那一等傳基督是出於結黨，並不誠實，意思要加增我捆鎖的苦楚。
17The former, however, preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can add to the distress of my chains.
18這有何妨呢？或是假意，或是真心，無論怎樣，基督究竟被傳開了。為此，我就歡喜，並且還要歡喜；
18What then is the issue? Just this: that in every way, whether by false motives or true, Christ is preached. And in this I rejoice. Yes, and I will continue to rejoice,
19因為我知道，這事藉着你們的祈禱和耶穌基督之靈的幫助，終必叫我得救。
19because I know that through your prayers and the provision of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, my distress will turn out for my deliverance.
20照着我所切慕、所盼望的，沒有一事叫我羞愧。只要凡事放膽，無論是生是死，總叫基督在我身上照常顯大。
20I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have complete boldness so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.
21因我活着就是基督，我死了就有益處。
21For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
22但我在肉身活着，若成就我工夫的果子，我就不知道該挑選甚麼。
22But if I go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. So what shall I choose? I do not know.
23我正在兩難之間，情願離世與基督同在，因為這是好得無比的。
23I am torn between the two. I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better indeed.
24然而，我在肉身活着，為你們更是要緊的。
24But it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.
25我既然這樣深信，就知道仍要住在世間，且與你們眾人同住，使你們在所信的道上又長進又喜樂，
25Convinced of this, I know that I will remain and will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith,
26叫你們在基督耶穌裏的歡樂，因我再到你們那裏去，就越發加增。
26so that through my coming to you again your exultation in Christ Jesus will resound on account of me.
27只要你們行事為人與基督的福音相稱，叫我或來見你們，或不在你們那裏，可以聽見你們的景況，知道你們同有一個心志，站立得穩，為所信的福音齊心努力。
27Nevertheless, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in one spirit, contending side by side for the faith of the gospel,
28凡事不怕敵人的驚嚇，這是證明他們沉淪，你們得救都是出於上帝。
28without being frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a clear sign of their destruction but of your salvation, and it is from God.
29因為你們蒙恩，不但得以信服基督，並要為他受苦。
29For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for Him,
30你們的爭戰，就與你們在我身上從前所看見、現在所聽見的一樣。
30since you are encountering the same struggle you saw I had, and now hear that I still have.
