Philippians 3

Revised Webster's Bible

1FinallyG3063, myG3450 brethrenG80, rejoiceG5463 inG1722 the LordG2962. To writeG1125 the same thingsG846 to youG5213, to meG1698 indeedG3303 is notG3756 tediousG3636, butG1161 for youG5213 it is safeG804. 2BewareG991 of dogsG2965, bewareG991 of evilG2556 workersG2040, bewareG991 of the false circumcisionG2699. 3ForG1063 weG2249 areG2070 the true circumcisionG4061, whoG3588 worshipG3000 GodG2316 in the spiritG4151, andG2532 rejoiceG2744 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, andG2532 haveG3982 noG3756 confidenceG3982 inG1722 the fleshG4561.

4ThoughG2539 IG1473 mightG2192 alsoG2532 haveG2192 confidenceG4006 inG1722 the fleshG4561. If anyG1536 other manG243 thinkethG1380 that he hath reason to trustG3982 inG1722 the fleshG4561, IG1473 moreG3123: 5CircumcisedG4061 the eighthG3637 day, ofG1537 the stockG1085 of IsraelG2474, of the tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958, an HebrewG1445 ofG1537 the HebrewsG1445; with respect toG2596 the lawG3551, a PhariseeG5330; 6ConcerningG2596 zealG2205, persecutingG1377 the churchG1577; with respect toG2596 the righteousnessG1343 whichG3588 is byG1722 the lawG3551, blamelessG273. 7ButG235 what thingsG3748 wereG2258 gainG2771 to meG3427, thoseG5023 I countedG2233 lossG2209 forG1223 ChristG5547. 8YeaG235 doubtlessG3304, andG2532 I countG2233 all thingsG3956 to be lossG2209 forG1511G1223 the excellencyG5242 of the knowledgeG1108 of ChristG5547 JesusG2424 myG3450 LordG2962: forG1223 whomG3739 I have suffered the lossG2210 of all thingsG3956, andG2532 do countG2233 themG1511 to be dungG4657, thatG2443 I may winG2770 ChristG5547,

9AndG2532 be foundG2147 inG1722 himG846, notG3361 havingG2192 my ownG1699 righteousnessG1343, whichG3588 is fromG1537 the lawG3551, butG235 that whichG3588 is throughG1223 the faithG4102 of ChristG5547, the righteousnessG1343 whichG3588 is fromG1537 GodG2316 byG1909 faithG4102: 10That I may knowG1097 himG846, andG2532 the powerG1411 of hisG846 resurrectionG386, andG2532 the fellowshipG2842 of hisG846 sufferingsG3804, being made conformableG4833 to hisG846 deathG2288; 11If by any meansG1513 I may attainG2658 toG1519 the resurrectionG1815 of the deadG3498. 12NotG3756 as thoughG3754 I had alreadyG2235 attainedG2983, eitherG2228 were alreadyG2235 perfectG5048: butG1161 I press onG1377, ifG1499 that I may apprehendG2638 that forG1909 whichG3739 alsoG2532 I am apprehendedG2638 byG5259 ChristG5547 JesusG2424. 13BrethrenG80, IG1473 countG3049 notG3756 myselfG1683 to have apprehendedG2638: butG1161 this one thingG1520 I do, forgettingG1950 those thingsG3303 which are behindG3694, andG1161 reaching forward toG1901 those things which are beforeG1715, 14I pressG1377 towardG2596 the markG4649 forG1909 the prizeG1017 of the highG507 callingG2821 of GodG2316 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.

15LetG5426 us thereforeG3767, as many asG3745 are perfectG5046, beG5426 thusG5124 mindedG5426: andG2532 if in any thingG1536 ye areG5426 otherwiseG2088 mindedG5426, GodG2316 shall revealG601 evenG2532 thisG5124 to youG5213. 16NeverthelessG4133, toG1519 whatG3739 we have already attainedG5348, let us walkG4748 by the sameG846 ruleG2583, let us mindG5426 the same thingG846.

17BrethrenG80, beG1096 followers togetherG4831 of meG3450, andG2532 markG4648 them who walkG4043 evenG3779 asG2531 ye haveG2192 usG2248 for an exampleG5179. 18(ForG1063 manyG4183 walkG4043, of whomG3739 I have toldG3004 youG5213 oftenG4178, andG1161 nowG3568 tellG3004 you evenG2532 weepingG2799, that they are the enemiesG2190 of the crossG4716 of ChristG5547: 19WhoseG3739 endG5056 is destructionG684, whoseG3739 GodG2316 is their appetiteG2836, andG2532 whose gloryG1391 is inG1722 theirG846 shameG152, whoG3588 mindG5426 earthly thingsG1919.) 20ForG1063 ourG2257 citizenshipG4175 isG5225 inG1722 heavenG3772; fromG1537 whichG3739 alsoG2532 we look forG553 the SaviourG4990, the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547:1 21WhoG3739 shall changeG3345 ourG2257 lowlyG5014 bodyG4983, thatG1519 itG846 may beG1096 fashioned likeG4832 hisG846 gloriousG1391 bodyG4983, according toG2596 the workingG1753 by which heG846 is ableG1410 evenG2532 to subdueG5293 all thingsG3956 to himselfG1438.
