And do not be frightened by anything
This is a command to the Philippian believers. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-sentences)
from those opposing you
"from those who are against what you do”
which is for them a sign of their destruction but of your salvation, salvation that is from God
AT: "because your courage will show them that God will destroy them, but God will save you" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive)
Because to you it has been granted on the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer in his behalf
AT: "Because God has given you not only the honor of believing in Christ, but also the honor of suffering for him" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive)
since you have to suffer the same conflict that you saw in me, and now hear to be in me
AT: "That is why you are having the same struggles which you saw me have and you hear that I still have now"
