Philippians 1:12-18 Now I would have you know, brethren, that what I have gone through has turned out to the furtherance of the Good News rather than otherwise.

WNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Now I would have you know, brethren, that what I have gone through has turned out to the furtherance of the Good News rather than otherwise. ¹³ And thus it has become notorious among all the Imperial Guards, and everywhere, that it is for the sake of Christ that I am a prisoner; ¹⁴ and the greater part of the brethren, made confident in the Lord through my imprisonment, now speak of God's Message without fear, more boldly than ever. ¹⁵ Some indeed actually preach Christ out of envy and contentiousness but there are also others who do it from good will. ¹⁶ These latter preach Him from love to me, knowing that I am here for the defence of the Good News; ¹⁷ while the others proclaim Him from motives of rivalry, and insincerely, supposing that by this they are embittering my imprisonment. ¹⁸ What does it matter, however? In any case Christ is preached--either perversely or in honest truth; and in that I rejoice, yes, and will rejoice.
