15Some indeed preach Christ even out of envy and strife, and some also out of good will.
16The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, thinking that they add affliction to my chains;
17but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the gospel.
18What does it matter? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed. I rejoice in this, yes, and will rejoice.
19For I know that this will turn out to my salvation, through your supplication and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
20according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will in no way be put to shame, but with all boldness, as always, now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death.
21For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
