Philippians 3:7-14

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁷ But ^(A)whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake 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 but 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 [e]in order that I may ^(J)attain to the resurrection from the dead.

¹² Not that I have already ^(K)obtained it or have already ^(L)become perfect, but I press on ^[f]so that I may ^(M)lay hold of that ^[g]for which also I ^(N)was laid hold of by ^(O)Christ Jesus. ¹³ Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid 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.
