but it is more vital for your sake that I remain in the body.

然而，我在肉身活着，为你们更是要紧的。

然而，我为你们肉身活着更加要紧。

然而，我为你们肉身活着更加要紧。

可是为了你们，我应该活在世上。

可是为了你们，我更需要活在世上。

可是为了你们的缘故，我更需要留在世上。

然而，我在肉身活着，為你們更是要緊的。

然而，我為你們肉身活着更加要緊。

然而，我為你們肉身活着更加要緊。

可是為了你們，我應該活在世上。

可是為了你們，我更需要活在世上。

不過仍然住在肉身裏呢，為着你們的緣故倒更必須。

可是為了你們的緣故，我更需要留在世上。

但居於形軀、為爾之故為尤要、

但在世有裨益於爾、倍加切要、

但我在世、更為切要、為爾之故也、

顧為爾等計、則尤需予之暫留塵世。

but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.

But it is more important for you that I stay alive.

But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account.

But for your sakes, it is better that I continue to live.

but to remain in the flesh is more necessary for your sake.

yet to remain on in the flesh is more necessary for your sakes.

Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you.

yet to abide in the flesh is more needful for your sake.

but to remain in the flesh is more necessary for you.

Nevertheless to abide in the flesh[ is] more needful for you.

Yet to remain in the flesh is more needful for your sake.

But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I am going away. For if I do not go away, the Advocate will not come to you, but if I go, I will send him to you.

Now if I am to go on living in the body, this will mean productive work for me, yet I don’t know which I prefer:

And since I am sure of this, I know that I will remain and continue with all of you for the sake of your progress and joy in the faith,so that what you can be proud of may increase because of me in Christ Jesus, when I come back to you.

I know that after I am gone fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock.Even from among your own group men will arise, teaching perversions of the truth to draw the disciples away after them.Therefore be alert, remembering that night and day for three years I did not stop warning each one of you with tears.
