Philippians 3:7-4:1
New King James Version
7 But (A)what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. 8 Yet indeed I also count all things loss (B)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 9 and be found in Him, not having (C)my own righteousness, which is from the law, but (D)that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith; 10 that I may know Him and the (E)power of His resurrection, and (F)the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, 11 if, by any means, I may (G)attain[a] to the resurrection from the dead.
Pressing Toward the Goal
12 Not that I have already (H)attained,[b] or am already (I)perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. 13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have [c]apprehended; but one thing I do, (J)forgetting those things which are behind and (K)reaching forward to those things which are ahead, 14 (L)I press toward the goal for the prize of (M)the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
15 Therefore let us, as many as are (N)mature, (O)have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, (P)God will reveal even this to you. 16 Nevertheless, to the degree that we have already [d]attained, (Q)let us walk (R)by the same [e]rule, let us be of the same mind.
Our Citizenship in Heaven
17 Brethren, (S)join in following my example, and note those who so walk, as (T)you have us for a pattern. 18 For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are (U)the enemies of the cross of Christ: 19 (V)whose end is destruction, (W)whose god is their belly, and (X)whose glory is in their shame—(Y)who set their mind on earthly things. 20 For (Z)our citizenship is in heaven, (AA)from which we also (AB)eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 (AC)who will transform our lowly body that it may be (AD)conformed to His glorious body, (AE)according to the working by which He is able even to (AF)subdue all things to Himself.
Be Anxious for Nothing; Think These Thoughts
4 Therefore, my beloved and (AG)longed-for brethren, (AH)my joy and crown, so (AI)stand fast in the Lord, beloved.

ΠΡΟΣ ΦΙΛΙΠΠΗΣΙΟΥΣ 3:7-4:1
1894 Scrivener New Testament
7 αλλ ατινα ην μοι κερδη ταυτα ηγημαι δια τον χριστον ζημιαν
8 αλλα μενουνγε και ηγουμαι παντα ζημιαν ειναι δια το υπερεχον της γνωσεως χριστου ιησου του κυριου μου δι ον τα παντα εζημιωθην και ηγουμαι σκυβαλα ειναι ινα χριστον κερδησω
9 και ευρεθω εν αυτω μη εχων εμην δικαιοσυνην την εκ νομου αλλα την δια πιστεως χριστου την εκ θεου δικαιοσυνην επι τη πιστει
10 του γνωναι αυτον και την δυναμιν της αναστασεως αυτου και την κοινωνιαν των παθηματων αυτου συμμορφουμενος τω θανατω αυτου
11 ει πως καταντησω εις την εξαναστασιν των νεκρων
12 ουχ οτι ηδη ελαβον η ηδη τετελειωμαι διωκω δε ει και καταλαβω εφ ω και κατεληφθην υπο του χριστου ιησου
13 αδελφοι εγω εμαυτον ου λογιζομαι κατειληφεναι εν δε τα μεν οπισω επιλανθανομενος τοις δε εμπροσθεν επεκτεινομενος
14 κατα σκοπον διωκω επι το βραβειον της ανω κλησεως του θεου εν χριστω ιησου
15 οσοι ουν τελειοι τουτο φρονωμεν και ει τι ετερως φρονειτε και τουτο ο θεος υμιν αποκαλυψει
16 πλην εις ο εφθασαμεν τω αυτω στοιχειν κανονι το αυτο φρονειν
17 συμμιμηται μου γινεσθε αδελφοι και σκοπειτε τους ουτως περιπατουντας καθως εχετε τυπον ημας
18 πολλοι γαρ περιπατουσιν ους πολλακις ελεγον υμιν νυν δε και κλαιων λεγω τους εχθρους του σταυρου του χριστου
19 ων το τελος απωλεια ων ο θεος η κοιλια και η δοξα εν τη αισχυνη αυτων οι τα επιγεια φρονουντες
20 ημων γαρ το πολιτευμα εν ουρανοις υπαρχει εξ ου και σωτηρα απεκδεχομεθα κυριον ιησουν χριστον
21 ος μετασχηματισει το σωμα της ταπεινωσεως ημων εις το γενεσθαι αυτο συμμορφον τω σωματι της δοξης αυτου κατα την ενεργειαν του δυνασθαι αυτον και υποταξαι εαυτω τα παντα
4 ωστε αδελφοι μου αγαπητοι και επιποθητοι χαρα και στεφανος μου ουτως στηκετε εν κυριω αγαπητοι
Philippians 3:7-4:1
Young's Literal Translation
7 But what things were to me gains, these I have counted, because of the Christ, loss;
8 yes, indeed, and I count all things to be loss, because of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, because of whom of the all things I suffered loss, and do count them to be refuse, that Christ I may gain, and be found in him,
9 not having my righteousness, which [is] of law, but that which [is] through faith of Christ -- the righteousness that is of God by the faith,
10 to know him, and the power of his rising again, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death,
11 if anyhow I may attain to the rising again of the dead.
12 Not that I did already obtain, or have been already perfected; but I pursue, if also I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by the Christ Jesus;
13 brethren, I do not reckon myself to have laid hold; and one thing -- the things behind indeed forgetting, and to the things before stretching forth --
14 to the mark I pursue for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
15 As many, therefore, as [are] perfect -- let us think this, and if [in] anything ye think otherwise, this also shall God reveal to you,
16 but to what we have come -- by the same rule walk, the same thing think;
17 become followers together of me, brethren, and observe those thus walking, according as ye have us -- a pattern;
18 for many walk of whom many times I told you -- and now also weeping tell -- the enemies of the cross of the Christ!
19 whose end [is] destruction, whose god [is] the belly, and whose glory [is] in their shame, who the things on earth are minding.
20 For our citizenship is in the heavens, whence also a Saviour we await -- the Lord Jesus Christ --
21 who shall transform the body of our humiliation to its becoming conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working of his power, even to subject to himself the all things.
4 So then, my brethren, beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand ye in the Lord, beloved.
Philippians 3:7-4:1
New American Standard Bible
7 But (A)whatever things were gain to me, these things I have counted as loss because of Christ. 8 More than that, I count all things to be loss [a]in view of the surpassing value of [b](B)knowing (C)Christ Jesus my Lord, [c]for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them mere rubbish, so that I may gain Christ, 9 and may be found in Him, not having (D)a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, (E)the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith, 10 that I may (F)know Him and (G)the power of His resurrection and [d](H)the fellowship of His sufferings, being (I)conformed to His death; 11 if somehow I may (J)attain to the resurrection from the dead.
12 Not that I have already [e](K)grasped it all or have already (L)become perfect, but I press on if I may also (M)take hold of that [f]for which I (N)was even taken hold of by (O)Christ Jesus. 13 Brothers and sisters, I do not regard myself as having taken hold of it yet; but one thing I do: (P)forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, 14 I (Q)press on toward the goal for the prize of the (R)upward call of God in (S)Christ Jesus. 15 Therefore, all who are [g](T)mature, let’s have this attitude; and if in anything you have a (U)different attitude, (V)God will reveal that to you as well; 16 however, let’s keep [h](W)living by that same standard to which we have attained.
17 Brothers and sisters, (X)join in following my example, and observe those who walk according to the (Y)pattern you have in us. 18 For (Z)many walk, of whom I often told you, and now tell you even as I (AA)weep, that they are the enemies of (AB)the cross of Christ, 19 whose end is destruction, whose god is their [i](AC)appetite, and whose (AD)glory is in their shame, who (AE)have their minds on earthly things. 20 For (AF)our [j]citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly (AG)wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ; 21 who will (AH)transform the body of our lowly condition into (AI)conformity with [k]His (AJ)glorious body, (AK)by the exertion of the power that He has even to (AL)subject all things to Himself.
Think of Excellence
4 Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, [l]whom I (AM)long to see, my joy and crown, (AN)stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.
