Philippians 3:3-8
New King James Version
3 For we are (A)the circumcision, (B)who worship [a]God in the Spirit, rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh, 4 though (C)I also might have confidence in the flesh. If anyone else thinks he may have confidence in the flesh, I (D)more so: 5 circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, (E)of the tribe of Benjamin, (F)a Hebrew of the Hebrews; concerning the law, (G)a Pharisee; 6 concerning zeal, (H)persecuting the church; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.
7 But (I)what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. 8 Yet indeed I also count all things loss (J)for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ

Philippians 3:3-8
Amplified Bible
3 for we [who are born-again have been reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, set apart for His purpose and] are the true circumcision, who worship in the Spirit of God and glory and take pride and exult in Christ Jesus and place no confidence [in what we have or who we are] in the flesh— 4 though I myself might have [some grounds for] confidence in the flesh [if I were pursuing salvation by works]. If anyone else thinks that he has reason to be confident in the flesh [that is, in his own efforts to achieve salvation], I have far more: 5 circumcised when I was eight days old, of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews [an exemplary Hebrew]; as to the [observance of the] Law, a Pharisee; 6 as to my zeal [for Jewish tradition], a persecutor of the church; and as to righteousness [supposed right living] which [my fellow Jews believe] is in the Law, I proved myself blameless.
7 But whatever former things were gains to me [as I thought then], these things [once regarded as advancements in merit] I have come to consider as loss [absolutely worthless] for the sake of Christ [and the purpose which He has given my life]. 8 But more than that, I count everything as loss compared to the priceless privilege and supreme advantage of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord [and of growing more deeply and thoroughly acquainted with Him—a joy unequaled]. For His sake I have lost everything, and I consider it all garbage, so that I may gain Christ,

Philippians 3:3-8
New International Version
3 For it is we who are the circumcision,(A) we who serve God by his Spirit, who boast in Christ Jesus,(B) and who put no confidence in the flesh— 4 though I myself have reasons for such confidence.(C)
If someone else thinks they have reasons to put confidence in the flesh, I have more: 5 circumcised(D) on the eighth day, of the people of Israel,(E) of the tribe of Benjamin,(F) a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard to the law, a Pharisee;(G) 6 as for zeal,(H) persecuting the church;(I) as for righteousness based on the law,(J) faultless.
7 But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss(K) for the sake of Christ. 8 What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing(L) Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ(M)
