Philippians 3:1–16

^aFinally, my brethren, ^brejoice in the Lord. ^bbTo write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. ²Beware of ^cdogs, beware of ^devil workers, beware of ^ethe concision. ³For ^fwe are the circumcision, ^gwhich worship God ^hin the spirit, and ⁱrejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. ⁴Though ^kI might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: ^5lCircumcised the eighth day, ^mof the stock of Israel, ⁿof the tribe of Benjamin, ^mnan Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, ^oa Pharisee; ^6pConcerning zeal, ^qpersecuting the church; touching ^rthe righteousness which is in the law, ^sblameless. ⁷But ^twhat things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. ⁸Yea ^udoubtless, and I count all things but loss for ^wthe excellency of ^xthe knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have ^ysuffered the loss of all things, and do count them but ^zdung, that I may win Christ, ⁹And be found in him, not having ^amine own righteousness, ^awhich is of the law, but ^bthat which is through ^bbthe faith of Christ, ^athe righteousness which is of God by faith: ¹⁰That I may know him, and ^cthe power of his resurrection, and ^dthe fellowship of his sufferings, ^ebeing made conformable unto his death; ¹¹If by any means I might ^fattain unto the resurrection of the dead. ¹²Not as though I had already ^gattained, either were already ^hperfect: but ⁱI follow after, if that I may ^kapprehend ^lthat for which also I am ^kapprehended of Christ Jesus. ¹³Brethren, I count not myself to have ^kapprehended: but this one thing I do, ^mforgetting those things which are behind, and ⁿreaching forth unto those things which are before, ¹⁴I ⁱⁿpress ^otoward the mark for ^pthe prize of ^qthe high calling of God in Christ Jesus. ¹⁵Let us therefore, as many as be ^rperfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ^sye be otherwise minded, ^tGod shall reveal even this unto you. ¹⁶Nevertheless, whereto we have already ^uattained, ^xlet us walk by the same ^xrule, ^ylet us mind the same thing.
