Philippians 3:4-8
4althoughG2539 1I myselfG1473 could boast as havingG2192 confidenceG4006 evenG2532 in the fleshG4561. IfG1487 anyoneG5100 elseG243 thinksG1380 he isG3982 confidentG3982 in the fleshG4561, I have moreG3123 reason: 52circumcisedG4061 the eighthG3637 dayG3637, of the 3nationG1085 of IsraelG2474, of the 4tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958, a 5HebrewG1445 of HebrewsG1445; as to the LawG3551, 6a PhariseeG5330; 6as to zealG2205, 7a persecutorG1377 of the churchG1577; as to the 8righteousnessG1343 which is in the LawG3551, foundG1096 9blamelessG273.
7But 10whateverG3748 thingsG3748 were gainG2771 to me, theseG3778 thingsG3778 I have countedG2233 as lossG2209 becauseG1223 of ChristG5547. 8MoreG3304 thanG3304 that, I countG2233 allG3956 thingsG3956 to be lossG2209 11inG1223 viewG1223 ofG1223 the surpassingG5242 valueG5242 of 1213knowingG1108 14ChristG5547 JesusG2424 my LordG2962, 15for whomG3739 I have sufferedG2210 the lossG2210 of allG3956 thingsG3956, and countG2233 them mere rubbishG4657, soG2443 thatG2443 I may gainG2770 ChristG5547,
