And most of the brothers in the Lord, becoming confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the Word without fear. 
Some indeed even preach Christ because of envy and strife, and some also of good will. 
Those, indeed, preach Christ out of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds. 
But these others preach in love, knowing that I am set for the defense of the gospel. 
What then? Nevertheless, in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached. And I rejoice in this. Yet, also I will rejoice. 
For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, 
according to my earnest expectation and hope that I shall be ashamed in nothing, but as always now Christ shall be magnified in my body with all boldness, whether it is by life or by death. 
For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 
But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labor. Yet I do not know what I shall choose. 
For I am pressed together by the two: having a desire to depart and to be with Christ, which is far better. 
But to remain in the flesh is more needful for you. 
And having this confidence, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all, for your advancement and joy of faith, 
so that your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again. 
Only let your conduct be as becomes the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you, or else am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, striving together with one mind for the faith of the gospel, 
and terrified in nothing by your adversaries. For this is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.
