|
AT: "But I will have enough courage right now, as I have always had"
|
|

|
## I will bring glory to Christ in my body ##
|
|
|

Paul uses the physical "body" to represent his life or the way he lives. AT: "so that I will honor Christ with all that I do" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])

## whether by life or by death ##
