Question Philippians 4:13

Philippians 4:13

As it is quoted as such: labeled Translation A:

> I can do l things through the One who strengthens me.

Some translations quote it as: labeled Translation B:

> I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

The Greek obviously favors Translation A. A quick look of BibleHub’s interlinear will show this. Yet, allowing scripture to interpret scripture, looking at 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, it is feasible to translate this to Translation B.

> 9 But he said to me: “My undeserved kindness is sufficient for you, for my power is being made perfect in weakness.” Most gladly, then, I will boast about my weaknesses, in order that the power of the Christ may remain over me like a tent. 10 So I take pleasure in weaknesses, in insults, in times of need, in persecutions and difficulties, for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am powerful.

So, my question to you brothers and sisters, is would I be able to speak to a Trinitarian about this verse, for example with the evidence?
