Paul and Timothy, servants of Meshikha Yeshua; To all the saints in Meshikha Yeshua who are at Dephilipus, with the qashisha and meshamshana:
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua Meshikha.
I thank my God whenever I remember you,
always in every prayer of mine for all of you, making my requests with joy,
for your partnership in the Good News from the first day until now;

It is even right for me to think this way about all of you, because I have you in my heart, because, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the Good News, you all are partakers with me of grace.
For God is my witness, how I long after all of you in the tender mercies of Meshikha Yeshua.

so that you may approve the things that are excellent; that you may be pure and blameless for the Day of Meshikha;
being filled with the fruit of righteousness, which are through Yeshua Meshikha, to the glory and praise of God.
Now I desire to have you know, brothers, that the things which happened to me have turned out rather to the progress of the Good News;
so that it became evident to the whole praetorian guard, and to all the rest, that my bonds are in Meshikha;

and that most of the brothers in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are more abundantly bold to speak the word without fear.
Some indeed preach Meshikha even out of envy and strife, and some also out of good will.
The latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Good News.
The former insincerely preach Meshikha from selfish ambition, thinking that they add affliction to my chains.

according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will in no way be disappointed, but with all boldness, as always, now also Meshikha will be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death.
For to me to live is Meshikha, and to die is gain.
But if I live on in the flesh, this will bring fruit from my work; yet I do not make known what I will choose.

But I am in a dilemma between the two, having the desire to depart and be with Meshikha, which is far better.
Yet, to remain in the flesh is more needful for your sake.

Only let your manner of life be worthy of the Good News of Meshikha, that, whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your state, that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving for the faith of the Good News;

and in nothing frightened by the adversaries, which is for them a proof of destruction, but to you of salvation, and that from God.
Because it has been granted to you on behalf of Meshikha, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer on his behalf,
having the same conflict which you saw in me, and now hear is in me.
