Philippians 3

CHAPTIR THRIE.
Beware oʼ fause teachers! Aʼ things oʼ oor ain are naething for Christ.
1And noo, to sum up, my brethren: Be blythe iʼ the Lord! To write to you the #3:1 He may mean the “same things” he tellʼt them in word when he was wiʼ them; or, the “same things” he was, aboot the same time, sendin to the Ephesians, etc.same things isna fashious, whilst for you it is safe.
2Be ye ware oʼ the dougs, tak ye tent oʼ the workers oʼ ill, keep awa frae the #3:2 This is naither richtly a Scots word, nor an English ane. It means cuttin‐aff, or mutilatin; but it marrows weel wiʼ the ither word, “circumceesion.”conceesion.
3For we are the circumceesion, wha worship in Godʼs Spirit, and glorie in Christ Jesus, and pit nae stress on things oʼ the flesh.
4Eʼen though I mysel micht lay some stress eʼen on things oʼ the flesh. Gin ony ither man thinks to hae ocht to glorie oʼ in the flesh, I yet mair!
5In circumceesion, an aucht‐day bairn; oʼ Israʼlʼs sons; oʼ Benjaminʼs tribe; a Hebrew oʼ Hebrews; as to law, a Pharisee;
6As to zeal, persecutin the Kirk; as to richtousness oʼ Law, wyteless.
7But, whatna things war a gain to me, thae hae I esteemed loss for the sake oʼ Christ!
8But, in truth, doubtless I am esteemin aʼ things to be loss, for the unco preciousness oʼ the lear oʼ Jesus Christ my Lord; for wham I sufferʼt the loss oʼ aʼ things, and coont them as midden‐orts, that I may win Christ,
9And may be in him; no haein for my richtousness that frae the Law — but that throwe faith in Christ; the richtousness that is frae God, by faith:
10To come to ken him, and the pooer oʼ his #3:10 No the pooer by whilk he raise frae the deid, but the pooer — the unco force and influence — oʼ that great fact on the Apostleʼs ain mind.Risin‐again, and to be a marrow wiʼ him in his sufferans, bein conform to his death.
11Gin aiblins, by ony means, I may win on to the “Risin‐again”; that frae amang the deid.
12No that I hae it noo, or sae sune had been made perfete; but I press on, gin that I may grip haud oʼ that for whilk I was grippit by Christ.
13Brethren, I, as to mysel allenarlie, am‐na yet reckonin to hae grippit haud; but ae thing I div: forgettin the things ahint, and raxin oot to thae things that are afore,
14I press on for the gree, for the prize oʼ the biddin (frae on heigh) oʼ God in Christ Jesus.
15As mony oʼ us, than, as are oʼ fuʼ stature, lat this be oor mind; and gin ye be mindit anither way, God wull mak it plain to ye.
16Nane‐the‐less, as far on as we hae gotten, lat us resolve to gang on in the same rule.
17Brethren! be ye followers oʼ me thegither; and tak tent oʼ thae that sae gang, eʼen as ye hae us for an example.
18For mony walk, oʼ wham I aft tellʼt ye, and noo, eʼen wiʼ tears tell ye: faes oʼ the Cross oʼ Christ!
19Whase hinner end is destruction, whase god is their wame, and whase glorie is in their shame; wha mind things oʼ the yirth.
20For oor citizen‐richts are in Heeven, oot oʼ whilk fain look we for a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ;
21Wha wull change the body oʼ oor laigh‐estate, to be like to the body oʼ his glorie; conform to the inwart workin, whaur‐by he has pooer eʼen to bring aʼ things intil subjection to his sel.
