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.
24 But for your sakes it is necessary I should live on here below.
25 I am sure it is, and so I know I shall remain alive and serve you all by forwarding your progress and fostering the joy of your faith.
