Philippians 3:9-16

9and may be foundG2147 in Him, not havingG2192 1a righteousnessG1343 of my ownG1699 derivedG1537 from the LawG3551, but that which is throughG1223 faithG4102 in ChristG5547, 2the righteousnessG1343 which comes from GodG2316 on the basisG1909 of faithG4102, 10that I may 3knowG1097 Him and 4the powerG1411 of His resurrectionG386 and 56the fellowshipG2842 of His sufferingsG3804, being 7conformedG4832 to His deathG2288; 118in orderG1513 that I may 9attainG2658 to the resurrectionG1815 from the deadG3498.

12Not that I have alreadyG2235 10obtainedG2983 it orG2228 have alreadyG2235 11become perfectG5048, but I pressG1377 on 12soG2532 that I may 13layG2638 holdG2638 of that 14for whichG3739 alsoG2532 I 15was laidG2638 holdG2638 of by 16ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 13BrethrenG80, I do not regardG3049 myselfG1683 as having laidG2638 holdG2638 of it yetG3768; but oneG1520 thingG1520 I do: 17forgettingG1950 what lies behindG3694 and reachingG1901 forwardG1901 to what lies aheadG1715, 14I 18pressG1377 on towardG1519 the goalG4649 for the prizeG1017 of the 19upwardG507 callG2821 of GodG2316 in 20ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 15Let us thereforeG3767, as manyG3745 as are 2122perfectG5046, haveG5426 thisG3778 attitudeG5426; and ifG1487 in anythingG5100 you haveG5426 a 23differentG2088 attitudeG5426, 24GodG2316 will revealG601 that alsoG2532 to you; 16howeverG4133, let us keep 2526livingG4748 by that sameG846 standard to whichG3739 we have attainedG5348.
