Darby Bible

1For the rest, my brethren, rejoiceG5463 in [the] LordG2962: to writeG1125 the sameG846 things to you, to me [is] not irksome, and for you safe. 2SeeG991 to dogsG2965, seeG991 to evilG2556 workmenG2040, seeG991 to the concision. 3For we areG1510 the circumcisionG4061, who worshipG3000 by [the] SpiritG4151 of 1GodG2316, and boastG2744 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424, and do not trustG3982 in fleshG4561. 4Though I have [my] trustG3982 evenG2532 in fleshG4561; if any otherG243 thinkG1380 to trustG3982 in fleshG4561, I ratherG3123: 5as to circumcisionG4061, [I received it] the eighth day; of [the] raceG1085 of IsraelG2474, of [the] tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958, HebrewG1445 of HebrewsG1445; as to [the] lawG3551, a PhariseeG5330; 6as to zealG2205, persecutingG1377 the assemblyG1577; as to righteousnessG1343 which [is] in [the] lawG3551, found blamelessG273; 7but what thingsG3778 wereG1510 gainG2771 to me these I counted, on accountG1223 of ChristG5547, lossG2209. 8But surely I count alsoG2532 all thingsG3956 to beG1510 lossG2209 on accountG1223 of the excellency of the knowledgeG1108 of ChristG5547 JesusG2424 my LordG2962, on accountG1223 of whom I have sufferedG2210 the lossG2209 of all, and count them to beG1510 filth, that I may gainG2770 ChristG5547; 9and that I may be foundG2147 in him, not having my righteousnessG1343, which [would be] on the principleG3551 of lawG3551, but that which is by faithG4102 of ChristG5547, the righteousnessG1343 which [is] of 2GodG2316 through faithG4102, 10to knowG1097 him, and the powerG1411 of his resurrectionG386, and the fellowshipG2842 of his sufferings, being conformed to his deathG2288, 11if any way I arrive at the resurrection from among [the] deadG3498. 12Not that I have alreadyG2235 obtained [the prize], or am alreadyG2235 perfectedG5048; but I pursueG1377, if alsoG2532 I may get possession [of it], seeing that alsoG2532 I have been takenG2983 possession of by ChristG5547 [JesusG2424]. 13Brethren, I do not count to have got possession myself; but oneG1520 thingG1520 — forgettingG1950 the things behind, and stretching out to the things beforeG1715, 14I pursueG1377, [looking] towards [the] goal, for the prizeG1017 of the callingG2821 on high of 3GodG2316 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 15As manyG3745 thereforeG3767 as [are] perfectG5046, let us be thus minded; and if ye are any otherwise minded, this alsoG2532 4GodG2316 shall revealG601 to you. 16But whereto we have attained, [let us] walkG4748 in the sameG846 steps. 17Be imitators [all] together of me, brethren, and fix your eyes on those walkingG4043 thusG3779 as you have us for a model; 18(for manyG4183 walkG4043 of whom I have toldG3004 you oftenG4178, and nowG1161 tellG3004 you evenG2532 weepingG2799, that they [are] the enemiesG2190 of the crossG4716 of ChristG5547: 19whose endG5056 [is] destructionG684, whose 5godG2316 [is] the bellyG2836, and [their] gloryG1391 in their shameG152, who mindG5426 earthlyG1919 thingsG3739:) 20for our commonwealth has its existence in [the] heavensG3772, from which alsoG2532 we awaitG553 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 [as] Saviour, 21who shall transform our bodyG4983 of humiliationG5014 into conformity to his bodyG4983 of gloryG1391, accordingG2596 to the workingG1753 of [the] power which he has evenG2532 to subdue all thingsG3956 to himself.
