Philippians 3:12-21

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 1GodG2316 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 15As manyG3745 thereforeG3767 as [are] perfectG5046, let us be thus minded; and if ye are any otherwise minded, this alsoG2532 2GodG2316 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 3godG2316 [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.
