Philippians 3:18-4:1

New American Standard Bible

¹⁸ For ^(A)many walk, of whom I often told you, and now tell you even as I ^(B)weep, that they are the enemies of ^(C)the cross of Christ, ¹⁹ whose end is destruction, whose god is their ^[a](D)appetite, and whose ^(E)glory is in their shame, who ^(F)have their minds on earthly things. ²⁰ For ^(G)our ^[b]citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly ^(H)wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ; ²¹ who will ^(I)transform the body of our lowly condition into ^(J)conformity with ^[c]His ^(K)glorious body, ^(L)by the exertion of the power that He has even to ^(M)subject all things to Himself.

4 Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, ^[d]whom I ^(N)long to see, my joy and crown, ^(O)stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.
