Philippians 1
King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:
1Paulus et Timotheus, servi Jesu Christi, omnibus sanctis in Christo Jesu, qui sunt Philippis, cum episcopis et diaconibus.
2Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
2Gratia vobis, et pax a Deo Patre nostro, et Domino Jesu Christo.
3I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,
3Gratias ago Deo meo in omni memoria vestri,
4Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,
4semper in cunctis orationibus meis pro omnibus vobis, cum gaudio deprecationem faciens,
5For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;
5super communicatione vestra in Evangelio Christi a prima die usque nunc.
6Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
6Confidens hoc ipsum, quia qui cœpit in vobis opus bonum, perficiet usque in diem Christi Jesu:
7Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.
7sicut est mihi justum hoc sentire pro omnibus vobis: eo quod habeam vos in corde, et in vinculis meis, et in defensione, et confirmatione Evangelii, socios gaudii mei omnes vos esse.
8For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.
8Testis enim mihi est Deus, quomodo cupiam omnes vos in visceribus Jesu Christi.
9And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;
9Et hoc oro, ut caritas vestra magis ac magis abundet in scientia, et in omni sensu:
10That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;
10ut probetis potiora, ut sitis sinceri, et sine offensa in diem Christi,
11Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
11repleti fructu justitiæ per Jesum Christum, in gloriam et laudem Dei.
12But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;
12Scire autem vos volo fratres, quia quæ circa me sunt, magis ad profectum venerunt Evangelii:
13So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places ;
13ita ut vincula mea manifesta fierent in Christo in omni prætorio, et in ceteris omnibus,
14And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
14et plures e fratribus in Domino confidentes vinculis meis, abundantius auderent sine timore verbum Dei loqui.
15Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:
15Quidam quidem et propter invidiam et contentionem: quidam autem et propter bonam voluntatem Christum prædicant:
16The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:
16quidam ex caritate, scientes quoniam in defensionem Evangelii positus sum.
17But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
17Quidam autem ex contentione Christum annuntiant non sincere, existimantes pressuram se suscitare vinculis meis.
18What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.
18Quid enim? Dum omni modo sive per occasionem, sive per veritatem, Christus annuntietur: et in hoc gaudeo, sed et gaudebo.
19For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
19Scio enim quia hoc mihi proveniet ad salutem, per vestram orationem, et subministrationem Spiritus Jesu Christi,
20According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.
20secundum exspectationem et spem meam, quia in nullo confundar: sed in omni fiducia sicut semper, et nunc magnificabitur Christus in corpore meo, sive per vitam, sive per mortem.
21For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
21Mihi enim vivere Christus est, et mori lucrum.
22But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.
22Quod si vivere in carne, hic mihi fructus operis est, et quid eligam ignoro.
23For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:
23Coarctor autem e duobus: desiderium habens dissolvi, et esse cum Christo, multo magis melius:
24Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.
24permanere autem in carne, necessarium propter vos.
25And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;
25Et hoc confidens scio quia manebo, et permanebo omnibus vobis ad profectum vestrum, et gaudium fidei:
26That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.
26ut gratulatio vestra abundet in Christo Jesu in me, per meum adventum iterum ad vos.
27Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;
27Tantum digne Evangelio Christi conversamini: ut sive cum venero, et videro vos, sive absens audiam de vobis, quia statis in uno spiritu unanimes, collaborantes fidei Evangelii:
28And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.
28et in nullo terreamini ab adversariis: quæ illis est causa perditionis, vobis autem salutis, et hoc a Deo:
29For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;
29quia vobis donatum est pro Christo, non solum ut in eum credatis, sed ut etiam pro illo patiamini:
30Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.
30idem certamen habentes, quale et vidistis in me, et nunc audistis de me.
