¹⁷Join together in following my example,^(A) brothers and sisters, and just as you have us as a model, keep your eyes on those who live as we do.^(B) ¹⁸For, as I have often told you before and now tell you again even with tears,^(C) many live as enemies of the cross of Christ.^(D) ¹⁹Their destiny^(E) is destruction, their god is their stomach,^(F) and their glory is in their shame.^(G) Their mind is set on earthly things.^(H) ²⁰But our citizenship^(I) is in heaven.^(J) And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,^(K) ²¹who, by the power^(L) that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies^(M) so that they will be like his glorious body.^(N)
