Philippians 3

1 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. It is no trouble for me to write the same things to you again, and it is a safeguard for you.

1 弟兄们，我还有话说，你们要靠主喜乐。我把这话再写给你们，于我并不为难，于你们却是妥当。

2 Watch out for those dogs, those workers of evil, those mutilators of the flesh!

2 应当防备犬类，防备作恶的，防备妄自行割的。

3 For it is we who are the circumcision, we who worship by the Spirit of God, who glory in Christ Jesus, and who put no confidence in the flesh—

3 因为真受割礼的，乃是我们这以 神的灵敬拜、在基督耶稣里夸口、不靠着肉体的。

4 though I myself could have such confidence. If anyone else thinks he has grounds for confidence in the flesh, I have more:

4 其实，我也可以靠肉体；若是别人想他可以靠肉体，我更可以靠着了。

5 circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin; a Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the law, a Pharisee;

5 我第八天受割礼；我是以色列族、便雅悯支派的人，是希伯来人所生的希伯来人。就律法说，我是法利赛人；

6 as to zeal, persecuting the church; as to righteousness in the law, faultless.

6 就热心说，我是逼迫教会的；就律法上的义说，我是无可指摘的。

7 But whatever was gain to me I count as loss for the sake of Christ.

7 只是我先前以为与我有益的，我现在因基督都当作有损的。

8 More than that, I count all things as loss compared to the surpassing excellence of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ

8 不但如此，我也将万事当作有损的，因我以认识我主基督耶稣为至宝。我为他已经丢弃万事，看作粪土，为要得着基督；

9 and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God on the basis of faith.

9 并且得以在他里面，不是有自己因律法而得的义，乃是有信基督的义，就是因信 神而来的义，

10 I want to know Christ and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to Him in His death,

10 使我认识基督，晓得他复活的大能，并且晓得和他一同受苦，效法他的死，

11 and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.

11 或者我也得以从死里复活。

12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.

12 这不是说我已经得着了，已经完全了；我乃是竭力追求，或者可以得着基督耶稣所以得着我的 。

13 Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,

13 弟兄们，我不是以为自己已经得着了；我只有一件事，就是忘记背后，努力面前的，

14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize of God’s heavenly calling in Christ Jesus.

14 向着标竿直跑，要得 神在基督耶稣里从上面召我来得的奖赏。

15 All of us who are mature should embrace this point of view. And if you think differently about some issue, God will reveal this to you as well.

15 所以我们中间，凡是完全人总要存这样的心；若在什么事上存别样的心， 神也必以此指示你们。

16 Nevertheless, we must live up to what we have already attained.

16 然而，我们到了什么地步，就当照着什么地步行。

17 Join one another in following my example, brothers, and carefully observe those who walk according to the pattern we set for you.

17 弟兄们，你们要一同效法我，也当留意看那些照我们榜样行的人。

18 For as I have often told you before, and now say again even with tears: Many live as enemies of the cross of Christ.

18 因为有许多人行事是基督十字架的仇敌。我屡次告诉你们，现在又流泪地告诉你们：

19 Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and their glory is in their shame. Their minds are set on earthly things.

19 他们的结局就是沉沦；他们的神就是自己的肚腹。他们以自己的羞辱为荣耀，专以地上的事为念。

20 But our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,

20 我们却是天上的国民，并且等候救主，就是主耶稣基督从天上降临。

21 who, by the power that enables Him to subject all things to Himself, will transform our lowly bodies to be like His glorious body.

21 他要按着那能叫万有归服自己的大能，将我们这卑贱的身体改变形状，和他自己荣耀的身体相似。
