1Finally, my brethren, rejoice in Master. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe. 2Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. 3For we are the circumcision, which worship יהוה in the spirit, and rejoice in the Messiah YAHUSHUA, and have no confidence in the flesh. 4Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: 5Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee; 6Concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless. 7But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for the Messiah. 8Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of the Messiah YAHUSHUA my Master: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win the Messiah, 9And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of the Messiah, the righteousness which is of יהוה by faith: 10That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; 11If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead. 12Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of the Messiah YAHUSHUA. 13Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, 14I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of יהוה in the Messiah YAHUSHUA. 15Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, יהוה shall reveal even this unto you. 16Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing. 17Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample. 18(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of the Messiah: 19Whose end is destruction, whose elohim is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) 20For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Master YAHUSHUA the Messiah: 21Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.
