Philippians 2:14-16

Lights in the World

¹⁴ Do all things _j without grumbling or _k questioning, ¹⁵ that you may be blameless and innocent, _l children of God _m without blemish _n in the midst of _o a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine _p as lights in the world, ¹⁶ holding fast to _q the word of life, so that in _r the day of Christ _s I may be proud that _t I did not run in vain or labor in vain.
