Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

Living for Christ
From prison Paul writes, “To me, living means living for Christ” (1:21). Why are believers called to devote their lives to Christ?
1. Believers acknowledge that they owe everything to Christ, including their salvation. Devoting their life to his service expresses their eternal indebtedness and gratitude (see Rom 12:1).
2. Believers acknowledge Christ as their master and Lord and submit to Christ’s rule in their lives. They recognize that they belong to the Lord and no longer live simply for themselves (see Rom 14:7-9; 2 Cor 5:14-15).
3. Believers now share in Christ’s death and resurrection—they have died to themselves and have risen with him (see Rom 6:3-14; cp. Gal 2:19-20). They have a new identity in Christ (Rom 8:14-17; Eph 1:11, 14; Phil 3:20).
4. Believers recognize that everything of value is found in Christ. Things of the world that once seemed important have lost their attraction; nothing compares to the infinite value of knowing Christ (Phil 3:7-11; Eph 1:3–3:21; Col 1:15–3:4).

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
τὸ δὲ ἐπιμένειν ἐν τῇ σαρκὶ
¬which but /to_be/_remaining_on in the flesh
The phrase but remain in the flesh means to remain alive in one’s body on earth. See how you translated flesh in 1:22. If this would be unclear in your language, consider stating this plainly. Alternate translation: “but to continue in the body” or “but to continue to live on this earth”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
ἀναγκαιότερον
more_necessary
In the phrase is more necessary Paul leaves out the implied words “than departing” because he knows that his readers will understand them from the context. If this would be unclear in your language, consider supplying these omitted words in your translation. Alternate translation: “rather than departing is more necessary”
ὑμᾶς
you_all
See how you translated the word your in 1:5.
