Philippians 1:14-17
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
14
and that most of the brothers
and sisters,
trusting in the Lord because of my imprisonment, have far more courage to speak the word of God without fear.
15
Some, to be sure, are preaching Christ even from envy and strife, but some also from goodwill;
16
the latter
do it
out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel;
17
the former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition rather than from pure motives, thinking that they are causing me distress in my imprisonment.
King James Version
Chapter 1
14
And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.
15
Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:
16
The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:
17
But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 1
14
Most of the brothers have gained confidence in the Lord from my imprisonment and dare even more to speak the word fearlessly.
15
To be sure, some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of good will.
16
These preach out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel;
17
the others proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, thinking that they will cause me trouble in my imprisonment.
New Living Translation
Chapter 1
14
And because of my imprisonment, most of the believers here have gained confidence and boldly speak God’s message without fear.
15
It’s true that some are preaching out of jealousy and rivalry. But others preach about Christ with pure motives.
16
They preach because they love me, for they know I have been appointed to defend the Good News.
17
Those others do not have pure motives as they preach about Christ. They preach with selfish ambition, not sincerely, intending to make my chains more painful to me.
English Standard Version
Chapter 1
14

New International Version

14
And because of my chains, most of the brothers and sisters have become confident in the Lord and dare all the more to proclaim the gospel without fear.
15
It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill.
16
The latter do so out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel.
17
The former preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can stir up trouble for me while I am in chains.
New King James Version
