Philippians 3
1 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is no trouble to me, and is a safeguard for you.
he bhrātaraḥ, śeṣe vadāmi yūyaṁ prabhāvānandata| punaḥ punarekasya vaco lekhanaṁ mama kleśadaṁ nahi yuṣmadarthañca bhramanāśakaṁ bhavati|
2 Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the false circumcision.
yūyaṁ kukkurebhyaḥ sāvadhānā bhavata duṣkarmmakāribhyaḥ sāvadhānā bhavata chinnamūlebhyo lokebhyaśca sāvadhānā bhavata|
3 For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;
vayameva chinnatvaco lokā yato vayam ātmaneśvaraṁ sevāmahe khrīṣṭena yīśunā ślāghāmahe śarīreṇa ca pragalbhatāṁ na kurvvāmahe|
4 though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If anyone else thinks that he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more:
kintu śarīre mama pragalbhatāyāḥ kāraṇaṁ vidyate, kaścid yadi śarīreṇa pragalbhatāṁ cikīrṣati tarhi tasmād api mama pragalbhatāyā gurutaraṁ kāraṇaṁ vidyate|
5 circumcised the eighth day, of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee;
yato'ham aṣṭamadivase tvakchedaprāpta isrāyelvaṁśīyo binyāmīnagoṣṭhīya ibrikulajāta ibriyo vyavasthācaraṇe phirūśī
6 concerning zeal, persecuting the church; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.
dharmmotsāhakāraṇāt samiterupadravakārī vyavasthāto labhye puṇye cānindanīyaḥ|
7 However, what things were gain to me, these have I counted loss for Christ.
kintu mama yadyat labhyam āsīt tat sarvvam ahaṁ khrīṣṭasyānurodhāt kṣatim amanye|
8 More than that, I count all things to be a loss compared to the far greater value of knowing Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ
kiñcādhunāpyahaṁ matprabhoḥ khrīṣṭasya yīśo rjñānasyotkṛṣṭatāṁ buddhvā tat sarvvaṁ kṣatiṁ manye|
9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith;
yato hetorahaṁ yat khrīṣṭaṁ labheya vyavasthāto jātaṁ svakīyapuṇyañca na dhārayan kintu khrīṣṭe viśvasanāt labhyaṁ yat puṇyam īśvareṇa viśvāsaṁ dṛṣṭvā dīyate tadeva dhārayan yat khrīṣṭe vidyeya tadarthaṁ tasyānurodhāt sarvveṣāṁ kṣatiṁ svīkṛtya tāni sarvvāṇyavakarāniva manye|
10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death;
yato hetorahaṁ khrīṣṭaṁ tasya punarutthite rguṇaṁ tasya duḥkhānāṁ bhāgitvañca jñātvā tasya mṛtyorākṛtiñca gṛhītvā
11 if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
yena kenacit prakāreṇa mṛtānāṁ punarutthitiṁ prāptuṁ yate|
12 Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, if it is so that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.
mayā tat sarvvam adhunā prāpi siddhatā vālambhi tannahi kintu yadartham ahaṁ khrīṣṭena dhāritastad dhārayituṁ dhāvāmi|
13 Brothers, I do not regard myself as having taken hold of it, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and reaching forward to the things which are ahead,
he bhrātaraḥ, mayā tad dhāritam iti na manyate kintvetadaikamātraṁ vadāmi yāni paścāt sthitāni tāni vismṛtyāham agrasthitānyuddiśya
14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
pūrṇayatnena lakṣyaṁ prati dhāvan khrīṣṭayīśunorddhvāt mām āhvayata īśvarāt jetṛpaṇaṁ prāptuṁ ceṣṭe|
15 Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.
asmākaṁ madhye ye siddhāstaiḥ sarvvaistadeva bhāvyatāṁ, yadi ca kañcana viṣayam adhi yuṣmākam aparo bhāvo bhavati tarhīśvarastamapi yuṣmākaṁ prati prakāśayiṣyati|
16 Nevertheless, to what we have attained, let us walk by the same rule, being of the same mind.
kintu vayaṁ yadyad avagatā āsmastatrāsmābhireko vidhirācaritavya ekabhāvai rbhavitavyañca|
17 Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.
he bhrātaraḥ, yūyaṁ mamānugāmino bhavata vayañca yādṛgācaraṇasya nidarśanasvarūpā bhavāmastādṛgācāriṇo lokān ālokayadhvaṁ|
18 For many, of whom I have often told you, and now tell you with tears, live as enemies of the cross of Christ,
yato'neke vipathe caranti te ca khrīṣṭasya kruśasya śatrava iti purā mayā punaḥ punaḥ kathitam adhunāpi rudatā mayā kathyate|
19 whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who think about earthly things.
teṣāṁ śeṣadaśā sarvvanāśa udaraśceśvaro lajjā ca ślāghā pṛthivyāñca lagnaṁ manaḥ|
20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ;
kintvasmākaṁ janapadaḥ svarge vidyate tasmāccāgamiṣyantaṁ trātāraṁ prabhuṁ yīśukhrīṣṭaṁ vayaṁ pratīkṣāmahe|
21 who will transform our lowly body into the likeness of his glorious body, according to the power by which he is able even to subject all things to himself.
sa ca yayā śaktyā sarvvāṇyeva svasya vaśīkarttuṁ pārayati tayāsmākam adhamaṁ śarīraṁ rūpāntarīkṛtya svakīyatejomayaśarīrasya samākāraṁ kariṣyati|
