1:1 基督耶稣的奴仆，保罗和提摩太，写信给所有在腓立比，在基督耶稣里的圣徒，同诸位监督和诸位执事：
Paul and Timothy, slaves of Christ Jesus, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with the overseers and deacons:
1:2 愿恩典与平安，从神我们的父，并主耶稣基督归与你们。
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
1:3 我每逢想念你们，就感谢我的神；
I thank my God upon all my remembrance of you,
1:4 每逢为你们众人祈求的时候，总是欢欢喜喜的祈求，
Always in my every petition on behalf of you all, making my petition with joy,
1:5 为了你们从头一天直到如今，在推广福音上所有的交通；
For your fellowship unto the furtherance of the gospel from the first day until now,
1:6 我深信那在你们里面开始了善工的，必完成这工，直到基督耶稣的日子。
Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun in you a good work will complete it until the day of Christ Jesus;
1:7 我为你们众人有这样的想法，原是应当的，因为你们有我在你们心里，无论我在捆锁之中，或在辩护、证实福音的时候，你们众人都与我同享恩典。
Even as it is right for me to think this concerning you all because you have me in your heart, since both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel you are all fellow partakers with me of grace.
1:8 神可为我作见证，我在基督耶稣的心肠里，怎样切切的想念你们众人。
For God is my witness how I long after you all in the inward parts of Christ Jesus.
1:9 我所祷告的，就是要你们的爱，在充足的知识并一切的辨识上，多而又多的洋溢，
And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in full knowledge and all discernment,
1:10 使你们能鉴赏那更美、不同的事，好叫你们纯诚无过，直到基督的日子，
So that you may approve by testing the things which differ and are more excellent, that you may be pure and without offense unto the day of Christ,
1:11 结满了那藉着耶稣基督而有的义果，使荣耀称赞归与神。
Being filled with the fruit of righteousness, which is through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.
1:12 弟兄们，我愿意你们知道，我所遭遇的事，更是为着福音的进展，
Now I want you to know, brothers, that the things concerning me have turned out rather to the advancement of the gospel,
1:13 以致我的捆锁，在御营全军，和所有其余的人中，已经显明是为基督的缘故。
So that my bonds have become manifest as being in Christ among the whole Praetorian guard and to all the rest.
1:14 并且大多数的弟兄们，因我的捆锁，在主里笃信不疑，越发放胆讲说神的话，无所惧怕。
And most of the brothers, being confident in the Lord because of my bonds, are more exceedingly bold to speak the word of God without fear.
