6. concerning zeal, persecuting the assembly; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.
7. However, I consider those things that were gain to me as a loss for Messiah.
8. Yes most certainly, and I count all things to be a loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Messiah Yeshua, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Messiah
9. and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Messiah, the righteousness which is from God by faith;
10. that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death;
11. if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
12. Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Messiah Yeshua.
