συνέχομαι I am pressed δέ however ἐκ between τῶν the δύο, two, τήν the ἐπιθυμίαν desire ἔχων having εἰς for [myself] τό - ἀναλῦσαι to depart καί and σύν with Χριστῷ Christ εἶναι, to be, πολλῷ very much γάρ for μᾶλλον more κρεῖσσον· better; τό - δέ but ἐπιμένειν to remain ἐν in τῇ the σαρκί flesh ἀναγκαιότερον [is] more necessary δι ̓ for the sake of ὑμᾶς. you. Καί And τοῦτο this πεποιθώς having been persuaded of, οἶδα I know ὅτι that μενῶ I will remain καί and παραμενῶ will continue with πᾶσιν all ὑμῖν of you εἰς for τήν - ὑμῶν your προκοπήν progress καί and χαράν joy τῆς of the πίστεως, faith, ἵνα so that τό the καύχημα boasting ὑμῶν of you περισσεύῃ may abound ἐν to Χριστῷ Christ Ἰησοῦ Jesus ἐν in ἐμοί me διά through τῆς - ἐμῆς my παρουσίας coming πάλιν again πρός to ὑμᾶς. you.

Μόνον Only ἀξίως worthily τοῦ of the εὐαγγελίου gospel τοῦ - Χριστοῦ of Christ πολιτεύεσθε, conduct yourselves, ἵνα so that εἴτε whether ἐλθών having come καί and ἰδών having seen ὑμᾶς you, εἴτε or ἀπών being absent, ἀκούω I might hear τά the things περί concerning ὑμῶν, you, ὅτι that στήκετε you are standing firm ἐν in ἑνί one πνεύματι, spirit, μιᾷ with one ψυχῇ mind συναθλοῦντες striving together τῇ for the πίστει faith τοῦ of the εὐαγγελίου gospel, καί and μή not πτυρόμενοι being frightened ἐν in μηδενί nothing ὑπό by τῶν those ἀντικειμένων, opposing [you], ἥτις which ἐστίν is αὐτοῖς to them ἔνδειξις a demonstration ἀπωλείας, of destruction; ὑμῶν to you δέ however σωτηρίας, of salvation, καί and τοῦτο this ἀπό from Θεοῦ· God. ὅτι For ὑμῖν to you ἐχαρίσθη it has been granted τό - ὑπέρ concerning Χριστοῦ, Christ, οὐ not μόνον only τό - εἰς in αὐτόν Him πιστεύειν to believe, ἀλλά but καί also τό - ὑπέρ concerning αὐτοῦ Him πάσχειν, to suffer, τόν the αὐτόν same ἀγῶνα conflict ἔχοντες, having, οἷον such as εἴδετε you saw ἐν in ἐμοί me καί and νῦν now ἀκούετε hear of ἐν in ἐμοί. me.

Εἴ If [there is] τὶς any οὖν therefore παράκλησις encouragement ἐν in Χριστῷ, Christ, εἴ if τὶ any παραμύθιον comfort ἀγάπης, of love, εἴ if τὶς any κοινωνία fellowship Πνεύματος, of [the] Spirit, εἴ if τὶς any σπλάγχνα affections καί and οἰκτιρμοί, compassions, πληρώσατε fulfill μου my τήν - χαράν joy ἵνα so that τό the αὐτό same φρονῆτε, you may be minded, τήν the αὐτήν same ἀγάπην love ἔχοντες, having, σύμψυχοι, united in soul, τό the ἕν same thing φρονοῦντες, minding, μηδέν nothing κατ ̓ according to ἐριθείαν self-interest μηδέ or κατά according to κενοδοξίαν vain conceit, ἀλλά but τῇ - ταπεινοφροσύνῃ in humility ἀλλήλους one another ἡγούμενοι be esteeming ὑπερέχοντας surpassing ἑαυτῶν, themselves, μή not τά the things ἑαυτῶν of themselves ἕκαστος each σκοποῦντες considering, ἀλλά but καί also τά the things ἑτέρων of others ἕκαστοι. each.

Τοῦτο This φρονεῖτε let mind be ἐν in ὑμῖν you ὅ which καί also ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ Ἰησοῦ, Jesus [was]: Ὅς Who ἐν in μορφῇ [the] form Θεοῦ of God ὑπάρχων existing, οὐ not ἁρπαγμόν something to be grasped ἡγήσατο considered τό - εἶναι to be ἴσα equal Θεῷ, with God, ἀλλά but ἑαυτόν Himself ἐκένωσεν emptied, μορφήν [the] form δούλου of a servant λαβών, having taken, ἐν in ὁμοιώματι [the] likeness ἀνθρώπων of men γενόμενος· having been made. καί And σχήματι in appearance εὑρεθείς having been found ὡς as ἄνθρωπος a man, ἐταπείνωσεν He humbled ἑαυτόν Himself, γενόμενος having become ὑπήκοος obedient μέχρι unto θανάτου, death, θανάτου [the] death δέ even σταυροῦ. of [the] cross. Διό Therefore καί also ὁ - Θεός God αὐτόν Him ὑπερύψωσεν highly exalted, καί and ἐχαρίσατο granted αὐτῷ to Him τό the ὄνομα name τό - ὑπέρ above πᾶν every ὄνομα, name, ἵνα that ἐν at τῷ the ὀνόματι name Ἰησοῦ of Jesus πᾶν every γόνυ knee κάμψῃ should bow, ἐπουρανίων in the heavens καί and ἐπιγείων on earth καί and καταχθονίων under the earth, καί and πᾶσα every γλῶσσα tongue ἐξομολογήσηται should confess ὅτι that ΚΥΡΙΟΣ [is] Lord ΙΗΣΟΥΣ Jesus ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ Christ, εἰς to δόξαν [the] glory Θεοῦ of God Πατρός. [the] Father.

Ὥστε, Therefore, ἀγαπητοί beloved μου, of me, καθώς just as πάντοτε always ὑπηκούσατε, you have obeyed, μή not ὡς as ἐν in τῇ the παρουσίᾳ presence μου of me μόνον only, ἀλλά but νῦν now πολλῷ much μᾶλλον more ἐν in τῇ the ἀπουσίᾳ absence μου, of me, μετά with φόβου fear καί and τρόμου trembling τήν - ἑαυτῶν your own σωτηρίαν salvation κατεργάζεσθε· work out. Θεός God γάρ for ἐστίν is ὁ the [One] ἐνεργῶν working ἐν in ὑμῖν you καί both τό - θέλειν to will καί and τό - ἐνεργεῖν to work ὑπέρ according to τῆς [His] εὐδοκίας. good pleasure. Πάντα All things ποιεῖτε do χωρίς without γογγυσμῶν murmurings καί and διαλογισμῶν, disputings, ἵνα so that γένησθε you may be ἄμεμπτοι blameless καί and ἀκέραιοι, innocent, τέκνα children Θεοῦ of God, ἄμωμα unblemished μέσον in [the] midst γενεᾶς of a generation σκολιᾶς crooked καί and διεστραμμένης, perverted, ἐν among οἷς whom φαίνεσθε you shine ὡς as φωστῆρες lights ἐν in κόσμῳ, [the] world, λόγον [the] word ζωῆς of life ἐπέχοντες, holding forth, εἰς unto καύχημα a boast ἐμοί to me εἰς in ἡμέραν [the] day Χριστοῦ, of Christ ὅτι that οὐ not εἰς in κενόν vain ἔδραμον I did run οὐδέ nor εἰς in κενόν vain ἐκοπίασα. toil. Ἀλλά But εἰ if καί even σπένδομαι I am being poured out as a drink offering ἐπί on τῇ the θυσίᾳ sacrifice καί and λειτουργίᾳ service τῆς of the πίστεως faith ὑμῶν, of you, χαίρω I am glad καί and συνχαίρω rejoice with πᾶσιν all ὑμῖν· you. τό - δέ And αὐτό likewise καί also ὑμεῖς you χαίρετε be glad καί and συνχαίρετε rejoice with μοι. me.

Ἐλπίζω I hope δέ however ἐν in Κυρίῳ [the] Lord Ἰησοῦ Jesus, Τιμόθεον Timothy ταχέως soon πέμψαι to send ὑμῖν, to you, ἵνα that κἀγώ I also εὐψυχῶ may be encouraged, γνούς having known τά the things περί concerning ὑμῶν. you. οὐδένα No one γάρ for ἔχω I have ἰσόψυχον, like-minded, ὅστις who γνησίως genuinely τά the things περί relative to ὑμῶν you μεριμνήσει· will care for. οἱ Those πάντες all γάρ for τά the things ἑαυτῶν of themselves ζητοῦσιν, are seeking, οὐ not τά the things Ἰησοῦ Jesus. Χριστοῦ. of Christ τήν - δέ But δοκιμήν the proven worth αὐτοῦ of him γινώσκετε, you know, ὅτι that ὡς as πατρί a father [with] τέκνον a child, σύν with ἐμοί me ἐδούλευσεν he has served εἰς in τό the εὐαγγέλιον. gospel. Τοῦτον Him μέν indeed οὖν therefore ἐλπίζω I hope πέμψαι to send, ὡς when ἄν - ἀφίδω I shall have seen τά the things περί concerning ἐμέ me, ἐξαυτῆς· immediately. πέποιθα I am persuaded δέ now ἐν in Κυρίῳ [the] Lord ὅτι that καί also αὐτός I myself ταχέως soon ἐλεύσομαι. I will come. Ἀναγκαῖον Necessary δέ now ἡγησάμην I esteemed [it], Ἐπαφρόδιτον Epaphroditus, τόν the ἀδελφόν brother καί and συνεργόν fellow worker καί and συστρατιώτην fellow soldier μου, of me, ὑμῶν of you δέ now ἀπόστολον messenger καί and λειτουργόν minister τῆς of the χρείας need μου, of me, πέμψαι to send πρός to ὑμᾶς, you, ἐπειδή since ἐπιποθῶν longing after ἦν he was πάντας all ὑμᾶς you καί and ἀδημονῶν, being deeply distressed διότι because ἠκούσατε you heard ὅτι that ἠσθένησεν. he was ill. καί And γάρ indeed ἠσθένησεν he was sick παραπλήσιον nearly θανάτῳ· unto death, ἀλλά but ὁ - Θεός God ἠλέησεν had mercy on αὐτόν, him; οὐ not αὐτόν on him δέ now μόνον alone, ἀλλά but καί also ἐμέ, on me, ἵνα that μή not λύπην sorrow ἐπί upon λύπην sorrow σχῶ. I should have. Σπουδαιοτέρως All the more speedily οὖν therefore ἔπεμψα I have sent αὐτόν, him, ἵνα that ἰδόντες having seen αὐτόν him πάλιν again, χαρῆτε you may rejoice, κἀγώ and I ἀλυπότερος less anxious ὦ. might be. προσδέχεσθε Receive οὖν therefore αὐτόν him ἐν in Κυρίῳ [the] Lord μετά with πάσης all χαρᾶς joy, καί and τούς - τοιούτους such ἐντίμους in honor ἔχετε, hold, ὅτι because διά for the sake of τό the ἔργον work Χριστοῦ of Christ, μέχρι unto θανάτου death ἤγγισεν he came near, παραβολευσάμενος having disregarded τῇ [his] ψυχῇ, life ἵνα so that ἀναπληρώσῃ he might fill up τό the ὑμῶν of you ὑστέρημα deficit τῆς of πρός toward με me λειτουργίας. service.

Τό - λοιπόν, Finally, ἀδελφοί brothers μου, of me, χαίρετε rejoice ἐν in Κυρίῳ. [the] Lord. τά The αὐτά same things γράφειν to write ὑμῖν to you, ἐμοί to me μέν indeed οὐ [is] not ὀκνηρόν, troublesome; ὑμῖν for you δέ now ἀσφαλές. [is] safe.

Βλέπετε Beware of τούς the κύνας, dogs; βλέπετε beware of τούς the κακούς evil ἐργάτας, workers; βλέπετε beware of τήν the κατατομήν. false circumcision. ἡμεῖς We γάρ for ἐσμέν are ἡ the περιτομή, circumcision, οἱ those Πνεύματι in [the] Spirit Θεοῦ of God λατρεύοντες worshiping καί and καυχώμενοι glorying ἐν in Χριστῷ Christ Ἰησοῦ Jesus, καί and οὐ not ἐν in σαρκί [the] flesh πεποιθότες, having put confidence, καίπερ though ἐγώ I ἔχων have πεποίθησιν confidence καί even ἐν in σαρκί. [the] flesh. Εἴ If τὶς any δοκεῖ thinks ἄλλος other πεποιθέναι to have confidence ἐν in σαρκί, [the] flesh, ἐγώ I μᾶλλον· more: περιτομῇ circumcision ὀκταήμερος, on [the] eighth day; ἐκ of γένους [the] nation Ἰσραήλ, of Israel, φυλῆς of [the] tribe Βενιαμίν, of Benjamin; Ἑβραῖος a Hebrew ἐκ of Ἑβραίων, Hebrews; κατά according to νόμον [the] Law, Φαρισαῖος, a Pharisee; κατά according to ζῆλος zeal, διώκων persecuting τήν the ἐκκλησίαν, church; κατά according to δικαιοσύνην righteousness τήν which [is] ἐν in νόμῳ [the] Law, γενόμενος having become ἄμεμπτος. faultless. Ἀλλά But ἅτινα whatever things ἦν were μοι to me κέρδη, gain, ταῦτα these ἥγημαι I have esteemed, διά because of τόν - Χριστόν Christ, ζημίαν. loss. ἀλλά But μενοῦνγε -, therefore indeed, καί also ἡγοῦμαι I count πάντα all things ζημίαν loss εἶναι to be διά because of τό the ὑπερέχον excelling τῆς - γνώσεως knowledge Χριστοῦ of Christ Ἰησοῦ Jesus τοῦ the Κυρίου Lord μου, of me, δι ̓ because of ὅν whom τά - πάντα all things ἐζημιώθην, I have lost, καί and ἡγοῦμαι esteem [them] σκύβαλα, rubbish, ἵνα that Χριστόν Christ κερδήσω I may gain καί and εὑρεθῶ be found ἐν in αὐτῷ, Him, μή not ἔχων having ἐμήν my own δικαιοσύνην righteousness, τήν which [is] ἐκ of νόμου [the] Law, ἀλλά but τήν that διά through πίστεως faith Χριστοῦ, from Christ, τήν the ἐκ of Θεοῦ God δικαιοσύνην righteousness ἐπί on the basis of τῇ - πίστει, faith, τοῦ - γνῶναι to know αὐτόν Him καί and τήν the δύναμιν power τῆς of the ἀναστάσεως resurrection αὐτοῦ of Him, καί and τήν the κοινωνίαν fellowship τῶν of παθημάτων sufferings αὐτοῦ, of Him, συμμορφιζόμενος being conformed τῷ to the θανάτῳ death αὐτοῦ, of Him, εἴ if, πώς by any means, καταντήσω I may attain εἰς to τήν the ἐξανάστασιν resurrection τήν - ἐκ out from νεκρῶν. dead.

οὐχ Not ὅτι that ἤδη already ἔλαβον I have obtained [it], ἤ or ἤδη already τετελείωμαι, have been perfected; διώκω I am pursuing δέ however, εἰ if καί also καταλάβω, I may lay hold ἐφ ̓ of ᾧ that for which καί also κατελήμφθην I was laid hold of ὑπό by Χριστοῦ Christ Ἰησοῦ.
