Philippians 3:12-21

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.
