G5389–φιλοτιμέομαι–philotimeomai

Making it my purpose not to take the good news where Christ was named, so that my work might not be resting on that of others;

φιλοτιμούμενον philotimoumenon “being ambitious”

For this reason we make it our purpose, in the body or away from it, to be well-pleasing to him.

φιλοτιμούμεθα, philotimoumetha “we are ambitious,”

And that you may take pride in being quiet and doing your business, working with your hands as we gave you orders;

φιλοτιμεῖσθαι philotimeisthai “to strive earnestly”
