| 1:2 | Grace be with you and peace from God oure father, and from the LORDE Iesus Christ. |
| 1:3 | I thanke my God, as oft as I remebre you |
| 1:4 | (which I allwayes do in all my prayers for you all, and praye with gladnesse) |
| 1:5 | because of youre fellishippe which ye haue in the Gospell from the first daye vnto now, |
| 1:6 | and am surely certified of this, yt he which hath begonne that good worke in you, shal go forth with it vntyll ye daye of Iesus Christ: |
| 1:7 | as it becommeth me to iudge of you all, because I haue you in my hert, as those that are partakers with me of grace in my bondes, in defendinge and stablyshinge of the Gospell. |
| 1:8 | For God is my recorde, how I loge after you all euen fro the very hert rote in Iesus Christ. |
| 1:9 | And for the same I praye, yt yor loue maye increace more & more in all maner of knowlege and in all experience, |

| 1:11 | fylled with the frutes of righteousnes, which come by Iesus Christ vnto the glorye and prayse of God. |
| 1:12 | I wolde ye vnderstode brethren, that my busynes is happened vnto the greater furtheraunce of the Gospell, |
| 1:13 | so that my bondes in Christ are manifest thorow out all ye iudgmet hall, and in all other places: |
| 1:14 | In so moch that many brethren in the LORDE, are boldened thorow my bodes, and darre more largely speake the worde without feare. |

| 1:20 | as I loke for and hope, that in nothinge I shalbe ashamed: but yt with all cofidence (as allwayes in tymes past, eue so now) Christ shalbe magnified in my body whether it be thorow life or thorow death. |
| 1:21 | For Christ is to me life, & death is to me auautage. |
| 1:22 | But in as moch as to lyue in ye flesh is frutefull to me for the worke, I wote not what |
| 1:23 | I shal chose, for both these thinges lye harde vpon me. I desyre to be lowsed, & to be with Christ, which thinge were moch better (for me) |

| 1:28 | and in nothinge fearinge youre aduersaries, which is to them a token off perdicion, but vnto you of saluacion, and that of God. |
| 1:29 | For vnto you it is geuen, not onely that ye shulde beleue on Christ, but also suffre for his sake, |
| 1:30 | and to haue euen the same fighte, which ye haue sene in me, and now heare of me. |
