ESV

1	For you yourselves know, brothers, that our coming to you was not in vain.
2	But though we had already suffered and been shamefully treated at Philippi, as you know, we had boldness in our God to declare to you the gospel of God in the midst of much conflict.
3	For our appeal does not spring from error or impurity or any attempt to deceive,
4	but just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please man, but to please God who tests our hearts.
5	For we never came with words of flattery, as you know, nor with a pretext for greed- God is witness.
6	Nor did we seek glory from people, whether from you or from others, though we could have made demands as apostles of Christ.
7	But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother taking care of her own children.
8	So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us.
9	For you remember, brothers, our labor and toil: we worked night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, while we proclaimed to you the gospel of God.
10	You are witnesses, and God also, how holy and righteous and blameless was our conduct toward you believers.
11	For you know how, like a father with his children,
12	we exhorted each one of you and encouraged you and charged you to walk in a manner worthy of God, who calls you into his own kingdom and glory.
13	And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers.
14	For you, brothers, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea. For you suffered the same things from your own countrymen as they did from the Jews,
15	who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out, and displease God and oppose all mankind
16	by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they might be saved- so as always to fill up the measure of their sins. But God's wrath has come upon them at last!
17	But since we were torn away from you, brothers, for a short time, in person not in heart, we endeavored the more eagerly and with great desire to see you face to face,
18	because we wanted to come to you- I, Paul, again and again- but Satan hindered us.
19	For what is our hope or joy or crown of boasting before our Lord Jesus at his coming? Is it not you?
20	For you are our glory and joy.

NIV

1	You know, brothers, that our visit to you was not a failure.
2	We had previously suffered and been insulted in Philippi, as you know, but with the help of our God we dared to tell you his gospel in spite of strong opposition.
3	For the appeal we make does not spring from error or impure motives, nor are we trying to trick you.
4	On the contrary, we speak as men approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel. We are not trying to please men but God, who tests our hearts.
5	You know we never used flattery, nor did we put on a mask to cover up greed–God is our witness.
6	We were not looking for praise from men, not from you or anyone else.
7	As apostles of Christ we could have been a burden to you, but we were gentle among you, like a mother caring for her little children.
8	We loved you so much that we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well, because you had become so dear to us.
9	Surely you remember, brothers, our toil and hardship; we worked night and day in order not to be a burden to anyone while we preached the gospel of God to you.
10	You are witnesses, and so is God, of how holy, righteous and blameless we were among you who believed.
11	For you know that we dealt with each of you as a father deals with his own children,
12	encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory.
13	And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is at work in you who believe.
14	For you, brothers, became imitators of God's churches in Judea, which are in Christ Jesus: You suffered from your own countrymen the same things those churches suffered from the Jews,
15	who killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets and also drove us out. They displease God and are hostile to all men
16	in their effort to keep us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved. In this way they always heap up their sins to the limit. The wrath of God has come upon them at last.
17	But, brothers, when we were torn away from you for a short time (in person, not in thought), out of our intense longing we made every effort to see you.
18	For we wanted to come to you–certainly I, Paul, did, again and again–but Satan stopped us.
19	For what is our hope, our joy, or the crown in which we will glory in the presence of our Lord Jesus when he comes? Is it not you?
20	Indeed, you are our glory and joy.

NLT

1	You yourselves know, dear brothers and sisters, that our visit to you was not a failure.
2	You know how badly we had been treated at Philippi just before we came to you and how much we suffered there. Yet our God gave us the courage to declare his Good News to you boldly, in spite of great opposition.
3	So you can see we were not preaching with any deceit or impure motives or trickery.
4	For we speak as messengers approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News. Our purpose is to please God, not people. He alone examines the motives of our hearts.
5	Never once did we try to win you with flattery, as you well know. And God is our witness that we were not pretending to be your friends just to get your money!
6	As for human praise, we have never sought it from you or anyone else.
7	As apostles of Christ we certainly had a right to make some demands of you, but instead we were like children among you. Or we were like a mother feeding and caring for her own children.
8	We loved you so much that we shared with you not only God's Good News but our own lives, too.
9	Don't you remember, dear brothers and sisters, how hard we worked among you? Night and day we toiled to earn a living so that we would not be a burden to any of you as we preached God's Good News to you.
10	You yourselves are our witnesses– and so is God– that we were devout and honest and faultless toward all of you believers.
11	And you know that we treated each of you as a father treats his own children.
12	We pleaded with you, encouraged you, and urged you to live your lives in a way that God would consider worthy. For he called you to share in his Kingdom and glory.
13	Therefore, we never stop thanking God that when you received his message from us, you didn't think of our words as mere human ideas. You accepted what we said as the very word of God– which, of course, it is. And this word continues to work in you who believe.
14	And then, dear brothers and sisters, you suffered persecution from your own countrymen. In this way, you imitated the believers in God's churches in Judea who, because of their belief in Christ Jesus, suffered from their own people, the Jews.
15	For some of the Jews killed the prophets, and some even killed the Lord Jesus. Now they have persecuted us, too. They fail to please God and work against all humanity
16	as they try to keep us from preaching the Good News of salvation to the Gentiles. By doing this, they continue to pile up their sins. But the anger of God has caught up with them at last.
17	Dear brothers and sisters, after we were separated from you for a little while (though our hearts never left you), we tried very hard to come back because of our intense longing to see you again.
18	We wanted very much to come to you, and I, Paul, tried again and again, but Satan prevented us.
19	After all, what gives us hope and joy, and what will be our proud reward and crown as we stand before our Lord Jesus when he returns? It is you!
20	Yes, you are our pride and joy.

KJV

1	For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain:
2	But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention.
3	For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:
4	But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.
5	For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God is witness:
6	Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.
7	But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:
8	So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.
9	For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.
10	Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:
11	As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,
12	That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.
13	For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
14	For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:
15	Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:
16	Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
17	But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavoured the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.
18	Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
19	For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?
20	For ye are our glory and joy.
