Philippians 3
1 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is not irksome to me, and 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 those that are like dogs, beware of evil doers, beware of the concision.
Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the false circumcision.
3 For we are of the true circumcision, who worship God in spirit, rejoicing in Christ Jesus, and having 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 might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other thinks he hath whereof to trust in the flesh, I 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 having been circumcised on the eighth day, of the race of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of Hebrews, with respect to 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 to zeal persecuting the church, as to the righteousness of the law blameless: but those things,
concerning zeal, persecuting the church; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.
7 which were once gain to me, I counted loss for Christ.
However, what things were gain to me, these have I counted loss for Meshikha.
8 Yea doubtless and I count all but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all, and I account them but dung, that I may gain Christ, and be found in Him,
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 not having my own righteousness which is of the law, but that which is by the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: that I may know Him,
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 and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable to 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 to the resurrection of the dead:
if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
12 not that I have yet won the prize, or am already perfect: but I press forward to acquire that perfection, for which also I have been 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 to have attained it: but one thing I do, forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to those 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 toward the mark for 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 are perfect, attend to this: and if in any thing ye think differently, God will reveal this also 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 But in what we have attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.
Nevertheless, to what we have attained, let us walk by the same rule, being of the same mind.
17 Brethren, be imitators of me, and observe those that walk as ye have us for an example.
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 have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction,
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 God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame; who mind earthly things) For our conversation is in heaven,
whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who think about earthly things.
20 from whence also we expect the Saviour, our Lord Jesus Christ: who will change our vile body,
For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Yeshua Meshikha;
21 that it may be made like his glorious body, according to the energy of his ability to subdue all things to 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.
