Philippians 1:20-23 my eager desire and hope being that I may never feel ashamed but that now as ever I may do honour to Christ in my own person by fearless courage. Whether that means life or death, no matter!

Moffatt⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁰ my eager desire and hope being that I may never feel ashamed but that now as ever I may do honour to Christ in my own person by fearless courage. Whether that means life or death, no matter! ²¹ As life means Christ to me, so death means gain. ²² But then, if it is to be life here below, that means fruitful work for me. So — well, I cannot tell which to choose; ²³ I am in a dilemma between the two. My strong desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far the best.
