Philippians 3:12-17
12Not that I have alreadyG2235 12graspedG2983 it all orG2228 have alreadyG2235 3become perfectG5048, but I pressG1377 onG1377 ifG1487 I may alsoG2532 4takeG2638 holdG2638 ofG2638 that 5for whichG3739 I 6was evenG2532 takenG2638 holdG2638 ofG2638 by 7ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 13BrothersG80 and sisters, I do not regardG3049 myselfG1683 as having takenG2638 holdG2638 ofG2638 it yet; but oneG1520 thingG1520 I do: 8forgettingG1950 what lies behindG3694 and reachingG1901 forwardG1901 to what lies aheadG1715, 14I 9pressG1377 onG1377 towardG1519 the goalG4649 for the prizeG1017 of the 10upwardG507 callG2821 of GodG2316 in 11ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 15ThereforeG3767, allG3745 whoG3745 are 1213matureG5046, let’s haveG5426 thisG3778 attitudeG5426; and ifG1487 in anythingG5100 you haveG5426 a 14differentG2088 attitudeG5426, 15GodG2316 will revealG601 that to you asG2532 wellG2532; 16howeverG4133, let’s keep 1617livingG4748 by that sameG846 standard to whichG3739 we have attainedG5348.
17BrothersG80 and sisters, 18joinG4831G1096 inG4831 followingG4831 my exampleG4831, and observeG4648 thoseG3588 who walkG4043 accordingG2531 to the 19patternG5179 you haveG2192 in us.
