Philippians 3:17-4:1
Legacy Standard Bible
17 Brothers, (A)join in following my example, and (B)look for those who walk according to the (C)pattern you have in us. 18 For (D)many walk—of whom I often told you, and now tell you even (E)crying—as enemies of (F)the cross of Christ, 19 whose end is destruction, whose god is their (G)stomach and (H)glory is in their shame, who (I)set their thoughts on earthly things. 20 For (J)our [a]citizenship is in heaven, from which also we eagerly (K)wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 who will (L)transform [b]the body of our humble state into (M)conformity with [c]the (N)body of His glory, (O)by His working through which He is able to even (P)subject all things to Himself.
Rejoice in the Lord Always
4 Therefore my brothers, loved and (Q)longed for, my joy and crown, in this way (R)stand firm in the Lord, my beloved.

Philippians 3:17-4:1
English Standard Version
17 Brothers, (A)join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk (B)according to the example you have in us. 18 For (C)many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you (D)even with tears, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ. 19 (E)Their end is destruction, (F)their god is their belly, and (G)they glory in their shame, with (H)minds set on earthly things. 20 But (I)our citizenship is in heaven, and (J)from it we (K)await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 who will transform (L)our lowly body (M)to be like his glorious body, (N)by the power that enables him even (O)to subject all things to himself.
4 Therefore, my brothers,[a] whom I love and (P)long for, (Q)my joy and (R)crown, (S)stand firm thus in the Lord, my beloved.
