1弟兄們，我還有話說，你們要靠主喜樂。我把這話再寫給你們，於我並不為難，於你們卻是。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.
2應當防備，防備作惡的，防備。Watch out for those dogs, those workers of evil, those mutilators of the flesh!
3因為真受割禮的，乃是我們這以 神的靈敬拜、在基督耶穌裡誇口、不靠著肉體的。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—
4其實，我也可以靠肉體；若是別人想他可以靠肉體，我更可以靠著了。though I myself could have such confidence. If anyone else thinks he has grounds for confidence in the flesh, I have more:
5我；我是以色列族、的人，是希伯來人所生的希伯來人。就律法說，我是；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;
6就熱心說，我是逼迫教會的；就律法上的義說，我是無可指摘的。as to zeal, persecuting the church; as to righteousness in the law, faultless.
7只是我先前以為與我有益的，我現在因基督都當作。But whatever was gain to me I count as loss for the sake of Christ.
8不但如此，我也將萬事當作有損的，因我以認識我主基督耶穌為。我為他已經丟棄萬事，看作，為要得著基督；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
9並且得以在他裡面，不是有自己因律法而得的義，乃是有信基督的義，就是因信 神而來的義，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.
10使我認識基督，曉得他復活的大能，並且曉得和他一同受苦，，I want to know Christ and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to Him in His death,
11或者我也得以從死裡復活。and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.
12這不是說我已經得著了，已經完全了；我乃是竭力追求，或者可以得著基督耶穌所以得著我的（所以得著我的：或譯所要我得的）。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.
13弟兄們，我不是以為自己已經得著了；我只有一件事，就是忘記背後，，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,
14向著直跑，要得 神在基督耶穌裡從上面召我來得的獎賞。I press on toward the goal to win the prize of God’s heavenly calling in Christ Jesus.
15所以我們中間，凡是完全人總要存這樣的心；若在甚麼事上存別樣的心， 神也必以此指示你們。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.
16然而，我們到了甚麼地步，就當照著甚麼地步行。Nevertheless, we must live up to what we have already attained.
17弟兄們，你們要一同效法我，也當留意看那些照我們榜樣行的人。Join one another in following my example, brothers, and carefully observe those who walk according to the pattern we set for you.
18因為有許多人行事是基督十字架的仇敵。我屢次告訴你們，現在又流淚地告訴你們：For as I have often told you before, and now say again even with tears: Many live as enemies of the cross of Christ.
19他們的結局就是沉淪；他們的神就是自己的。他們以自己的羞辱為榮耀，專以地上的事為念。Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and their glory is in their shame. Their minds are set on earthly things.
20我們卻是，並且等候救主，就是主耶穌基督從天上降臨。But our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,
21他要按著那能叫萬有歸服自己的大能，將我們這改變形狀，和他自己榮耀的身體相似。who, by the power that enables Him to subject all things to Himself, will transform our lowly bodies to be like His glorious body.
