Philippians 3:6-10

New International Version

⁶ as for zeal,^(A) persecuting the church;^(B) as for righteousness based on the law,^(C) faultless.

⁷ But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss^(D) for the sake of Christ. ⁸ What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing^(E) Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ^{(F) 9} and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law,^(G) but that which is through faith in^[a] Christ—the righteousness^(H) that comes from God on the basis of faith.^{(I) 10} I want to know^(J) Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings,^(K) becoming like him in his death,^(L)
