American King James Version
"Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you. "
— Philippians 1:24, American King James Version
“Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.”
“yet to abide in the flesh is more needful for your sake. ”
“Yet, to remain in the flesh is more needful for your sake.”
“but it is more vital for your sake that I remain in the body.”
“But to abide still in the flesh is needful for you.”
“Still, to go on in the flesh is more necessary because of you.”
“Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.”
For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labor: yet what I shall choose I know not.
For I am in a strait between two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:
Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.
And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;
That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.
Only let your conversation be as it becomes the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;
