< Philippians 3 >
1 Finally, brothers of mine, do rejoice in [the] Lord. The same things to write to you to me myself indeed [is] not troublesome, for you however [is] safe.
Τὸ λοιπόν, ἀδελφοί μου, χαίρετε ἐν κυρίῳ. τὰ αὐτὰ γράφειν ὑμῖν ἐμοὶ μὲν οὐκ ὀκνηρόν, ὑμῖν δὲ ἀσφαλές.
2 do beware of the dogs, do beware of the evil workers, do beware of the false circumcision;
Βλέπετε τοὺς κύνας, βλέπετε τοὺς κακοὺς ἐργάτας, βλέπετε τὴν κατατομήν.
3 We ourselves for are the circumcision, those in [the] Spirit (of God *N(k)O*) worshiping and glorying in Christ Jesus and not in [the] flesh having put confidence,
ἡμεῖς γάρ ἐσμεν ἡ περιτομή, οἱ πνεύματι θεοῦ λατρεύοντες καὶ καυχώμενοι ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἐν σαρκὶ πεποιθότες,
4 though I myself have confidence even in [the] flesh. If any thinks other to have confidence in [the] flesh, I myself more:
καίπερ ἐγὼ ἔχων πεποίθησιν καὶ ἐν σαρκί. Εἴ τις δοκεῖ ἄλλος πεποιθέναι ἐν σαρκί, ἐγὼ μᾶλλον·
5 circumcision on [the] eighth day, of [the] nation of Israel, of [the] tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews, according to [the] Law a Pharisee,
περιτομῇ ὀκταήμερος, ἐκ γένους Ἰσραήλ, φυλῆς Βενιαμίν, Ἑβραῖος ἐξ Ἑβραίων, κατὰ νόμον Φαρισαῖος,
6 according to (zeal *N(k)O*) persecuting the church, according to righteousness which [is] in [the] Law having become faultless.
κατὰ ⸀ζῆλοςδιώκων τὴν ἐκκλησίαν, κατὰ δικαιοσύνην τὴν ἐν νόμῳ γενόμενος ἄμεμπτος.
7 But whatever things were to me gain, these I have esteemed because of Christ loss;
Ἀλλὰ ἅτινα ἦν μοι κέρδη, ταῦτα ἥγημαι διὰ τὸν Χριστὸν ζημίαν.
8 But (rather *NK(o)*) also I count all things loss to be because of which is excelling the knowledge of Christ Jesus the Lord of mine because of whom all things I have lost and esteem [them] rubbish (to be *k*) that Christ I may gain
ἀλλὰ ⸀μενοῦνγεκαὶ ἡγοῦμαι πάντα ζημίαν εἶναι διὰ τὸ ὑπερέχον τῆς γνώσεως Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ τοῦ κυρίου μου διʼ ὃν τὰ πάντα ἐζημιώθην, καὶ ἡγοῦμαι ⸀σκύβαλαἵνα Χριστὸν κερδήσω
9 and may be found in Him not having my own righteousness which [is] of [the] Law but that through faith from Christ, the of God righteousness on the basis of faith,
καὶ εὑρεθῶ ἐν αὐτῷ, μὴ ἔχων ἐμὴν δικαιοσύνην τὴν ἐκ νόμου ἀλλὰ τὴν διὰ πίστεως Χριστοῦ, τὴν ἐκ θεοῦ δικαιοσύνην ἐπὶ τῇ πίστει,
10 to know Him and the power of the resurrection of Him and the fellowship of the sufferings of Him being conformed to the death of Him,
τοῦ γνῶναι αὐτὸν καὶ τὴν δύναμιν τῆς ἀναστάσεως αὐτοῦ καὶ ⸀κοινωνίανπαθημάτων αὐτοῦ, ⸀συμμορφιζόμενοςτῷ θανάτῳ αὐτοῦ,
11 if somehow I shall attain to the resurrection (that *N(k)O*) (out from *no*) [the] dead.
εἴ πως καταντήσω εἰς τὴν ἐξανάστασιν ⸂τὴν ἐκ νεκρῶν.
12 Not for already I have obtained [it] or already (have been perfected, *NK(O)*) I am pursuing however if even I shall grasp of that for which also I was grasped by (*k*) Christ Jesus.
Οὐχ ὅτι ἤδη ἔλαβον ἢ ἤδη τετελείωμαι, διώκω δὲ εἰ καὶ καταλάβω, ἐφʼ ᾧ καὶ κατελήμφθην ὑπὸ ⸀Χριστοῦ
13 Brothers, I myself myself (not *NK(o)*) do consider to have grasped [it]; One thing however: The [things] indeed behind forgetting, to the [things] however ahead reaching forward,
ἀδελφοί, ἐγὼ ἐμαυτὸν ⸀οὐλογίζομαι κατειληφέναι· ἓν δέ, τὰ μὲν ὀπίσω ἐπιλανθανόμενος τοῖς δὲ ἔμπροσθεν ἐπεκτεινόμενος,
14 toward [the] goal I press on (for *N(k)O*) the prize of the upward calling of God in Christ Jesus.
κατὰ σκοπὸν διώκω ⸀εἰςτὸ βραβεῖον τῆς ἄνω κλήσεως τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ.
15 As many as therefore [are] mature, this [way] we may reason; and if anything differently you reason, even this God to you will reveal;
ὅσοι οὖν τέλειοι, τοῦτο φρονῶμεν· καὶ εἴ τι ἑτέρως φρονεῖτε, καὶ τοῦτο ὁ θεὸς ὑμῖν ἀποκαλύψει·
16 Nevertheless to that which we have attained, by the same [we are] to walk (rule [and] by the same reasoning. *K*)
πλὴν εἰς ὃ ἐφθάσαμεν, τῷ αὐτῷ ⸀στοιχεῖν
17 Imitators together of me do be, brothers, and do observe those thus walking even as you have [for] a pattern us.
Συμμιμηταί μου γίνεσθε, ἀδελφοί, καὶ σκοπεῖτε τοὺς οὕτω περιπατοῦντας καθὼς ἔχετε τύπον ἡμᾶς·
18 Many for are walking — [of] whom often I was telling you, now indeed even weeping I say — [as] the enemies of the cross of Christ,
πολλοὶ γὰρ περιπατοῦσιν οὓς πολλάκις ἔλεγον ὑμῖν, νῦν δὲ καὶ κλαίων λέγω, τοὺς ἐχθροὺς τοῦ σταυροῦ τοῦ Χριστοῦ,
19 whose end [is] destruction, whose God [is] the belly and glory [is] in the shame of them, those [things] earthly minding.
ὧν τὸ τέλος ἀπώλεια, ὧν ὁ θεὸς ἡ κοιλία καὶ ἡ δόξα ἐν τῇ αἰσχύνῃ αὐτῶν, οἱ τὰ ἐπίγεια φρονοῦντες.
20 Of us for the citizenship in [the] heavens exists from whence also a Savior we are awaiting [the] Lord Jesus Christ,
ἡμῶν γὰρ τὸ πολίτευμα ἐν οὐρανοῖς ὑπάρχει, ἐξ οὗ καὶ σωτῆρα ἀπεκδεχόμεθα κύριον Ἰησοῦν Χριστόν,
21 who will transform the body of the humiliation of us (toward to become it *K*) conformed to the body of the glory of Himself according to the working enabling Him even to subdue (to Him *N(k)O*) all things.
ὃς μετασχηματίσει τὸ σῶμα τῆς ταπεινώσεως ⸀ἡμῶνσύμμορφον τῷ σώματι τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ κατὰ τὴν ἐνέργειαν τοῦ δύνασθαι αὐτὸν καὶ ὑποτάξαι ⸀αὑτῷτὰ πάντα.
