* Finally , my brethren , rejoice (5720 ) in the Lord . To write (5721 ) the same things to you , to me indeed is not grievous , but for you it is safe . * Beware (5720 ) of dogs , beware (5720 ) of evil workers , beware (5720 ) of the concision . * For we are (5748 ) the circumcision , which worship (5723 ) God in the spirit , and rejoice (5740 ) in Christ Jesus , and have no confidence (5756 ) in the flesh . * Though I might also have (5723 ) confidence in the flesh . If any other man thinketh (5719 ) that he hath whereof he might trust (5755 ) in the flesh , I more : * Circumcised the eighth day , of the stock of Israel , of the tribe of Benjamin , an Hebrew of the Hebrews ; as touching the law , a Pharisee ; * Concerning zeal , persecuting (5723 ) the church ; touching the righteousness which is in the law , (5637 ) blameless . * But what things were (5713 ) gain to me , those I counted (5766 ) loss for Christ . * Yea doubtless , and I count (5736 ) all things but loss for (5750 ) the excellency (5723 ) of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord : for whom I have suffered the loss (5681 ) of all things , and do count (5736 ) them (5750 ) but dung , that I may win (5661 ) Christ , * And be found (5686 ) in him , not having (5723 ) mine own righteousness , which is of the law , but that which is through the faith of Christ , the righteousness which is of God by faith : * That I may know (5629 ) him , and the power of his resurrection , and the fellowship of his sufferings , being made conformable (5746 ) unto his death ; * If by any means I might attain (5661 ) unto the resurrection of the dead . * Not as though I had already attained (5627 ), either were already perfect (5769 ): but I follow after (5719 ), if that I may apprehend (5632 ) that for which also I am apprehended (5681 ) of Christ Jesus . * Brethren , I count (5736 ) not myself to have apprehended (5760 ): but this one thing I do , forgetting (5740 ) those things which are behind , and reaching forth unto (5740 ) those things which are before , * I press (5719 ) toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus . * Let us therefore , as many as be perfect , be thus minded (5725 ): and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded (5719 ), God shall reveal (5692 ) even this unto you . * Nevertheless , whereto we have already attained (5656 ), let us walk (5721 ) by the same rule , let us mind (5721 ) the same thing . * Brethren , be (5737 ) followers together of me , and mark (5720 ) them which walk (5723 ) so as ye have (5719 ) us for an ensample . * (For many walk (5719 ), of whom I have told (5707 ) you often , and now tell (5719 ) you even weeping (5723 ), that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ : * Whose end is destruction , whose God is their belly , and whose glory is in their shame , who mind (5723 ) earthly things .) * For our conversation is (5719 ) in heaven ; from whence also we look for (5736 ) the Saviour , the Lord Jesus Christ : * Who shall change (5692 ) our vile body , that it may be (5635 ) fashioned like unto his glorious body , according to the working whereby he is able (5738 ) even to subdue (5658 ) all things unto himself . * Therefore , my brethren dearly beloved and longed for , my joy and crown , so stand fast (5720 ) in the Lord , my dearly beloved . * I beseech (5719 ) Euodias , and beseech (5719 ) Syntyche , that they be of the same mind (5721 ) in the Lord . * And I intreat (5719 ) thee also , true yokefellow , help (5732 ) those women which laboured (5656 ) with me in the gospel , with Clement also , and with other my fellowlabourers , whose names are in the book of life . * Rejoice (5720 ) in the Lord alway : and again I say (5692 ), Rejoice (5720 ). * Let your moderation be known (5682 ) unto all men . The Lord is at hand . * Be careful (5720 ) for nothing ; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known (5744 ) unto God . * And the peace of God , which passeth (5723 ) all understanding , shall keep (5692 ) your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus . * Finally , brethren , whatsoever things are (5748 ) true , whatsoever things are honest , whatsoever things are just , whatsoever things are pure , whatsoever things are lovely , whatsoever things are of good report ; if there be any virtue , and if there be any praise , think (5737 ) on these things . * Those things , which ye have both learned (5627 ), and received (5627 ), and heard (5656 ), and seen (5627 ) in me , do (5719 ): and the God of peace shall be (5704 ) with you . * But I rejoiced (5644 ) in the Lord greatly , that now at the last your care (5721 ) of me hath flourished again (5627 ); wherein ye were also careful (5707 ), but ye lacked opportunity (5711 ). * Not that I speak (5719 ) in respect of want : for I have learned (5627 ), in whatsoever state I am (5748 ), therewith to be (5750 ) content . * I know (5758 ) both how to be abased (5745 ), and I know (5758 ) how to abound (5721 ): every where and in all things I am instructed (5769 ) both to be full (5745 ) and to be hungry (5721 ), both to abound (5721 ) and to suffer need (5745 ). * I can do (5719 ) all things through Christ which strengtheneth (5723 ) me . * Notwithstanding ye have well done (5656 ), that ye did communicate with (5660 ) my affliction . * Now ye Philippians know (5758 ) also , that in the beginning of the gospel , when I departed (5627 ) from Macedonia , no church communicated with (5656 ) me as concerning giving and receiving , but ye only . * For even in Thessalonica ye sent (5656 ) once and again unto my necessity . * Not because I desire (5719 ) a gift : but I desire (5719 ) fruit that may abound (5723 ) to your account . * But I have (5719 ) all , and abound (5719 ): I am full (5769 ), having received (5666 ) of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you , an odour of a sweet smell , a sacrifice acceptable , wellpleasing to God . * But my God shall supply (5692 ) all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus . * Now unto God and our Father be glory for ever and ever . Amen . * Salute (5663 ) every saint in Christ Jesus . The brethren which are with me greet (5736 ) you . * All the saints salute (5736 ) you , chiefly they that are of Caesars household . * The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all . Amen .To the Philippians written (5648 ) from Rome , by Epaphroditus .#
