As to the rest, my brothers, rejoice in the LORD; indeed, [it] is not tiresome to me to write to you the same things, and for you [is] sure.
Look out for the dogs! Look out for the evil-workers! Look out for the mutilation!

For we are the circumcision, who are serving God by the Spirit, and glorying in Christ Jesus, and having no trust in flesh,
4 ⲇ̅ ⲕⲉⲡⲉⲣ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲏⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲑⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲟⲛ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲭⲁ⳿ϩⲑⲏϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ.
though I also have [cause of] trust in flesh. If any other one thinks to have trust in flesh, I more:
5 ⲉ̅ ⲟⲩⲥⲉⲃⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲙⲁϩⲏ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲅⲉⲛⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥ̅ⲗ̅ ⳿ⲧⲫⲩⲗⲏ ⳿ⲙⲃⲉⲛⲓ⳿ⲁⲙⲓⲛ ⲟⲩϩⲉⲃⲣⲉⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲛϩⲉⲃⲣⲉⲟⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲡⲓⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲟⲩⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲉⲟⲥ.
circumcision on the eighth day! Of the race of Israel! Of the tribe of Benjamin! A Hebrew of Hebrews! According to law—a Pharisee!
According to zeal—persecuting the Assembly! According to righteousness that is in law—becoming blameless!
But what things were gains to me, these I have counted loss, because of the Christ;
8 ⲏ̅ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲉⲛⲟⲩⲛⲅⲉ ϯⲱⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲧⲏ ⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϩⲁⲛⲟⲥⲓ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲁ⳪ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲓϯⲟⲥⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯⲱⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϩⲁⲛⲗⲉⲃϣ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁϫⲉⲙϩⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲠⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
yes, indeed, and I count all things to be loss, because of the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, because of whom I suffered loss of all things, and count them to be refuse, that I may gain Christ, and be found in Him,
9 ⲑ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉϫⲉⲙⲧ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⲉⲥⲉⲛⲧⲟⲧ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲧⲁⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ ϯ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϯ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲙⲠⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϯⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⲇⲉ ϯ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲛⲁϩϯ.
not having my righteousness, which [is] of law, but that which [is] through faith from Christ—the righteousness that is of God by faith,
10 ⲓ̅ ⲉⲑⲣⲓⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛϥ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲧⲉϥⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯⲙⲉⲧ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲉϥ⳿ⲙⲕⲁϩ ⲉⲓϣⲓⲃϯ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥⲙⲟⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲉϥⲙⲟⲩ.
to know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death,
if anyhow I may attain to the resurrection of the dead.
12 ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ ⲟⲩⲭ ⲟⲧⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲟⲩⲟ ⲉⲓϭⲓ ⲓⲉ ϩⲏⲇⲏ ⲁⲓϫⲱⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϯϭⲟϫⲓ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲧⲁϩⲟ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁϩⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
Not that I already obtained, or have already been perfected, but I pursue, if I also may lay hold of that for which I was also laid hold of by Christ Jesus;
13 ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϯⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲟⲩⲱ ⲁⲓⲧⲁϩⲟ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓ⳿⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⲙⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲱⲃϣ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁⲫⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲉⲓⲥⲱⲟⲩⲧⲉⲛ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲉⲛⲁ⳿ⲧϩⲏ.
brothers, I do not reckon myself to have laid hold [of it], but one thing [I do]—indeed forgetting the things behind, and stretching forth to the things before—
I pursue to the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
15 ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧϫⲏⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲕⲉϩⲱⲃ ⳿ⲛⲕⲉⲣⲏϯ ⲡⲁⲓⲭⲉⲧ ⲉⲣⲉ ⲫϯ ϭⲱⲣⲡϥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
As many, therefore, as [are] perfect—let us think this, and if [in] anything you think otherwise, this also will God reveal to you,
but to what we have attained—walk by the same rule, think the same thing;
17 ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϫⲟⲩϣⲧ ⳿ⲉⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲉⲛϣⲟⲡ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲩⲡⲟⲥ.
together become my followers, brothers, and observe those thus walking, according as you have us—a pattern;
18 ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲩⲙⲟϣⲓ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲓϫⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛⲥⲟⲡ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲟⲛ ⲉ⳿ⲓⲣⲓⲙⲓ ϯϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲓϫⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.
for many walk of whom I told you [about] many times—and now also weeping tell—[they are] the enemies of the Cross of the Christ,
19 ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲧⲟⲩϧⲁ⳿ⲉ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲡⲧⲁⲕⲟ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩϯ ⲡⲉ ⲧⲟⲩⲛⲉϫⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲟⲩⲱⲟⲩ ⲁϥϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϣⲓⲡⲓ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲑⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ.
whose end [is] destruction, whose god [is] the belly, and whose glory [is] in their shame, who are minding the things on earth.

For our citizenship is in the heavens, from where we also await a Savior—the Lord Jesus Christ—

who will transform the body of our humiliation to its becoming conformed to the body of His glory, according to the working of His power, even to subject all things to Himself.
