Philippians 3:4-9
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, 9and may be foundG2147 in Him, not havingG2192 16a righteousnessG1343 of my ownG1699 derivedG1537 from the LawG3551, but that which is throughG1223 faithG4102 in ChristG5547, 17the righteousnessG1343 which comes from GodG2316 on the basisG1909 of faithG4102,
