^{12 Ref} Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect: but I press on, if so be that I may lay hold on that for which also I was laid hold on by Christ Jesus.

^{13 Ref} Brethren, I could not myself yet to have laid hold: but one thing `I do', forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before,

^{14 Ref} I press on toward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

^{15 Ref} Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded: and if in anything ye are otherwise minded, this also shall God reveal unto you:

^{16 Ref} only, whereunto we have attained, by that same `rule' let us walk.

^{17 Ref} Brethren, be ye imitators together of me, and mark them that so walk even as ye have us for an ensample.

^{18 Ref} For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, `that they are' the enemies of the cross of Christ:

^{19 Ref} whose end is perdition, whose god is the belly, and `whose' glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.

^{20 Ref} For our citizenship is in heaven; whence also we wait for a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:

^{21 Ref} who shall fashion anew the body of our humiliation, `that it may be' conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working whereby he is able even to subject all things unto himself.
