Philippians 2:16 in Context — Philippians 2
14 Faites toutes choses sans murmures ni hésitations,
15 afin que vous soyez irréprochables et purs, des enfants de Dieu irrépréhensibles au milieu d’une génération perverse et corrompue, parmi laquelle vous brillez comme des flambeaux dans le monde,
16 portant la parole de vie; et je pourrai me glorifier, au jour de Christ, de n’avoir pas couru en vain ni travaillé en vain.
17 Et même si je sers de libation pour le sacrifice et pour le service de votre foi, je m’en réjouis, et je me réjouis avec vous tous.
18 Vous aussi, réjouissez-vous de même, et réjouissez-vous avec moi.
