* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.
It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart. For in my chains and in my defense and confirmation of the gospel, you are all partners in grace with me.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
It is even right for me to think this way on behalf of all of you, because I have you in my heart, because, both in my bonds and in the defense and confirmation of the Good News, you all are partakers with me of grace.
World English Bible (WEB)
Even as{G2531} it is{G2076}{(G5748)} meet{G1342} for me{G1698} to think{G5426}{(G5721)} this{G5124} of{G5228} you{G5216} all{G3956}, because{G1223} I have{G2192}{(G5721)} you{G5209} in{G1722} my{G3165} heart{G2588}; inasmuch as both{G5037} in{G1722} my{G3450} bonds{G1199}, and{G2532} in the defence{G627} and{G2532} confirmation{G951} of the gospel{G2098}, ye{G5209} all{G3956} are{G5607}{(G5752)} partakers{G4791} of my{G3450} grace{G5485}.
Strong's King James
(7) As is only right for me to feel, in this way about you all. For I have you in my heart, both in my chains and in the defending confirmation of the good news you're all partners of favourable-grace with me.
The F.O.G*
[7] It's only right for me to feel this way about you all because you hold such a special place in my heart. Whether I'm in chains or defending and establishing the gospel, you're all partners with me in God's grace—bound together by divine purpose.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
according as it is righteous for me to think this in behalf of you all, because of my having you in the heart, both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the good news, all of you being fellow-partakers with me of grace.
Young's Literal Translation
