Philippians 3
1 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me, indeed, is not irksome, and for you it is safe.
το λοιπον αδελφοι μου χαιρετε εν κυριω τα αυτα γραφειν υμιν εμοι μεν ουκ οκνηρον υμιν δε ασφαλες
2 Beware of the snarlers, beware of evil workers, beware of the excision;
βλεπετε τους κυνας βλεπετε τους κακους εργατας βλεπετε την κατατομην
3 for we are the circumcision, who worship God in spirit, who glory in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh,
ημεις γαρ εσμεν η περιτομη οι πνευματι θεω λατρευοντες και καυχωμενοι εν χριστω ιησου και ουκ εν σαρκι πεποιθοτες
4 Though indeed, I have a ground of confidence in the flesh, if any other thinks he has a ground of confidence--I have more.
καιπερ εγω εχων πεποιθησιν και εν σαρκι ει τις δοκει αλλος πεποιθεναι εν σαρκι εγω μαλλον
5 Circumcised the eighth day, of the race of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews; with respect to the law, a Pharisee;
περιτομη οκταημερος εκ γενους ισραηλ φυλης βενιαμιν εβραιος εξ εβραιων κατα νομον φαρισαιος
6 with respect to zeal, persecuting the congregation; with respect to righteousness by law, I was blameless.
κατα ζηλον διωκων την εκκλησιαν κατα δικαιοσυνην την εν νομω γενομενος αμεμπτος
7 But the things which were gain to me, those I have counted loss for Christ.
αλλ ατινα ην μοι κερδη ταυτα ηγημαι δια τον χριστον ζημιαν
8 Yes, indeed, on this account, also, I count all things loss, for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord; (for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do account them mere refuse, that I may gain Christ,
αλλα μενουνγε και ηγουμαι παντα ζημιαν ειναι δια το υπερεχον της γνωσεως χριστου ιησου του κυριου μου δι ον τα παντα εζημιωθην και ηγουμαι σκυβαλα ειναι ινα χριστον κερδησω
9 and be found in him, not having my righteousness by law, but that which is through the faith of Christ--the righteousness which is from God on account of this faith)--
και ευρεθω εν αυτω μη εχων εμην δικαιοσυνην την εκ νομου αλλα την δια πιστεως χριστου την εκ θεου δικαιοσυνην επι τη πιστει
10 that I might know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death;
του γνωναι αυτον και την δυναμιν της αναστασεως αυτου και την κοινωνιαν των παθηματων αυτου συμμορφουμενος τω θανατω αυτου
11 if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
ει πως καταντησω εις την εξαναστασιν των νεκρων
12 Not that I have already laid hold, or have already become perfect; but I press on, that, indeed, I may lay hold on that, for which, also, I was laid hold on by Christ Jesus.
ουχ οτι ηδη ελαβον η ηδη τετελειωμαι διωκω δε ει και καταλαβω εφ ω και κατεληφθην υπο του χριστου ιησου
13 Brethren, I count not myself to have laid hold of the prize; but one thing I do, forgetting the things behind, and stretching forth toward the things before,
αδελφοι εγω εμαυτον ου λογιζομαι κατειληφεναι εν δε τα μεν οπισω επιλανθανομενος τοις δε εμπροσθεν επεκτεινομενος
14 I press on toward the mark, for the prize of the high calling of God, by Christ Jesus.
κατα σκοπον διωκω επι το βραβειον της ανω κλησεως του θεου εν χριστω ιησου
15 Let us, then, as many as would be perfect, be thus minded; and if in anything you think differently, God will reveal even this to you.
οσοι ουν τελειοι τουτο φρονωμεν και ει τι ετερως φρονειτε και τουτο ο θεος υμιν αποκαλυψει
16 Moreover, let us walk in conformity to what we have attained.
πλην εις ο εφθασαμεν τω αυτω στοιχειν κανονι το αυτο φρονειν
17 Brethren, be imitators of men, and consider attentively those who walk so, as you have us for an example.
συμμιμηται μου γινεσθε αδελφοι και σκοπειτε τους ουτως περιπατουντας καθως εχετε τυπον ημας
18 (For I have often told you, and now tell you, even weeping, that many walk as the enemies of the cross of Christ;
πολλοι γαρ περιπατουσιν ους πολλακις ελεγον υμιν νυν δε και κλαιων λεγω τους εχθρους του σταυρου του χριστου
19 whose end is destruction, whose god is their appetites, whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
ων το τελος απωλεια ων ο θεος η κοιλια και η δοξα εν τη αισχυνη αυτων οι τα επιγεια φρονουντες
20 But we are citizens of heaven, whence, also, we earnestly expect the Saviour, our Lord Jesus Christ;
ημων γαρ το πολιτευμα εν ουρανοις υπαρχει εξ ου και σωτηρα απεκδεχομεθα κυριον ιησουν χριστον
21 who will transform our humbled body into a like form with his glorious body, according to the energy of his power, even to subject all things to himself.
ος μετασχηματισει το σωμα της ταπεινωσεως ημων εις το γενεσθαι αυτο συμμορφον τω σωματι της δοξης αυτου κατα την ενεργειαν του δυνασθαι αυτον και υποταξαι εαυτω τα παντα
