Philippians 1:22
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But if I go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. So what shall I choose? I do not know.
In context
20 I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have complete boldness so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.
21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
22 But if I go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. So what shall I choose? I do not know.
23 I am torn between the two. I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better indeed.
24 But it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.
