Philippians 3:7-11
Lexham English Bible
7 But whatever things were gain to me, these things I have considered loss because of Christ. 8 More than that[a], I even consider all things to be loss because of the surpassing greatness of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for the sake of whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and consider them[b] dung, in order that I may gain Christ 9 and may be found in him, not having my righteousness which is from the law, but which is through faith in Christ,[c] the righteousness from God on the basis of faith,[d] 10 so that I may know him and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death, 11 if somehow I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
