腓立比書 Philippians 1:3-11
1:3 我每逢想念你們，就感謝我的神；I thank my God every time I remember you.
1:4 (每逢為你們眾人祈求的時候，常是歡歡喜喜地祈求。)In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy
1:5 因為從頭一天直到如今，你們是同心合意地興旺福音。because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now,
1:6 我深信那在你們心裡動了善工的，必成全這工，直到耶穌基督的日子。being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
1:7 我為你們眾人有這樣的意念，原是應當的；因你們常在我心裡，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。It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart; for whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, all of you share in God’s grace with me.
1:8 我體會基督耶穌的心腸，切切地想念你們眾人，這是　神可以給我作見證的。God can testify how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus.
1:9 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，And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight,
1:10 使你們能分別是非(或作“喜愛那美好的事”)，作誠實無過的人，直到基督的日子；so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ,
1:11 並靠着耶穌基督結滿了仁義的果子，叫榮耀稱讚歸與神。filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ–to the glory and praise of God. (Paul’s Chains Advance the Gospel )
