"Now, brothers, I want you to know that the things concerning me happened for the advancement of the Gospel, "
— Philippians 1:12, Catholic Public Domain Version
“But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;”
“Now I would have you know, brethren, that the thingswhich happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the progress of the gospel; ”
“Now I desire to have you know, brothers, that the things which happened to me have turned out rather to the progress of the Good News;”
“Ministry as a Prisoner I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that my situation has actually turned out to advance the gospel:”
“Now, brethren, I desire you should know that the things which have happened to me have fallen out rather to the furtherance of the gospel:”
“Now it is my purpose to make clear to you, brothers, that the cause of the good news has been helped by my experiences;”
“But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;”
And this I pray: that your charity may abound more and more, with knowledge and with all understanding,
so that you may be confirmed in what is better, in order that you may be sincere and without offense on the day of Christ:
filled with the fruit of justice, through Jesus Christ, in the glory and praise of God.
Now, brothers, I want you to know that the things concerning me happened for the advancement of the Gospel,
in such a way that my chains have become manifest in Christ in every place of judgment and in all other such places.
And many from among the brothers in the Lord, becoming confident through my chains, are now much bolder in speaking the Word of God without fear.
Certainly, some do so even because of envy and contention; and others, too, do so because of a good will to preach Christ.
