Philippians 3:12–4:1

12 Not 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. 13 Brethren, 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, 14 I inpress otoward the mark for pthe prize of qthe high calling of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let 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. 16 Nevertheless, whereto we have already uattained, xlet us walk by the same xrule, ylet us mind the same thing.

17 Brethren, zbe followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have aus for an ensample. 18 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are bthe enemies of the cross of Christ: 19 cWhose end is destruction, dwhose God is their belly, and ewhose glory is in their fshame, who gmind earthly things.) 20 For our hconversation iis in heaven; kfrom whence also lwe look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 Who shall mchange nour vile body, that it may be ofashioned like unto his glorious body, paccording to the working whereby he is able even qto subdue all things unto himself.

4 Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and alonged for, bcmy joy and cdcrown, so ddstand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
