Philippians 3

1 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not irksome, but for you it is safe.

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.

2 Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the concision:

Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the false circumcision.

3 for we are the circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God, and glory in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh:

For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Rukha, and rejoice in Meshikha Yeshua, and have no confidence in the flesh;

4 though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh: if any other man thinketh to have confidence in the flesh, I yet more:

though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If anyone else thinks that he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more:

5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;

circumcised the eighth day, of the nation of Israyel, of the tribe of Benyamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee;

6 as touching zeal, persecuting the church; as touching the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.

concerning zeal, persecuting the church; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.

7 Howbeit what things were gain to me, these have I counted loss for Christ.

However, what things were gain to me, these have I counted loss for Meshikha.

8 Yea verily, and I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may gain Christ,

More than that, I count all things to be a loss compared to the far greater value of knowing Meshikha Yeshua, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Meshikha

9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of mine own, [even] that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

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 Meshikha, the righteousness which is from God by faith;

10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed unto his death;

that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death;

11 if by any means I may attain unto the resurrection from the dead.

if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

12 Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect: but I press on, if so be that I may apprehend that for which also I was apprehended by Christ Jesus.

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 Meshikha Yeshua.

13 Brethren, I count not myself yet to have apprehended: but one thing [I do], forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before,

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,

14 I press on toward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Meshikha Yeshua.

15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in anything ye are otherwise minded, even this shall God reveal unto you:

Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.

16 only, whereunto we have already attained, by that same [rule] let us walk.

Nevertheless, to what we have attained, let us walk by the same rule, being of the same mind.

17 Brethren, be ye imitators together of me, and mark them which so walk even as ye have us for an ensample.

Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.

18 For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, [that they are] the enemies of the cross of Christ:

For many, of whom I have often told you, and now tell you with tears, live as enemies of the cross of Meshikha,

19 whose end is perdition, whose god is the belly, and [whose] glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.

whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who think about earthly things.

20 For our citizenship is in heaven; from whence also we wait for a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:

For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Yeshua Meshikha;

21 who shall fashion anew the body of our humiliation, [that it may be] conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working whereby he is able even to subject all things unto himself.

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.
