Philippians 2:14-16

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁴Do all things without grumbling and faultfinding and complaining [^[a]against God] and ^[b]questioning and doubting [among yourselves],

¹⁵That you may show yourselves to be blameless and guileless, innocent and uncontaminated, children of God without blemish (faultless, unrebukable) in the midst of a crooked and wicked generation [spiritually perverted and perverse], among whom you are seen as bright lights (stars or beacons shining out clearly) in the [dark] world,

¹⁶Holding out [to it] and offering [to all men] the Word of Life, so that in the day of Christ I may have something of which exultantly to rejoice and glory in that I did not run my race in vain or spend my labor to no purpose.

And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ^(E) that I did not run^(F) or labor in vain.^(G)
