Philippians 1:24
Douay-Rheims
But to abide still in the flesh, is needful for you.
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown
to abide--to continue somewhat longer. for you--Greek, "on your account"; "for your sake." In order to be of service to you, I am willing to forego my entrance a little sooner into blessedness; heaven will not fail to be mine at last.
