And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. | Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. |
For I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my deliverance. | For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ. |

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. | For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. |
I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better. But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account. | For I am in a strait betwixt 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. |
For it has been granted to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him but also suffer for his sake. | For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake. |
