ܦܝܠܝܦܣܝ̈ܐ 3

1 ܡܟܝܠ ܐܚܝ ܚܕܘ ܒܡܪܢ ܗܢܝܢ ܟܕ ܗܢܝܢ ܕܐܟܬܘܒ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܡܐܢܐ ܠܝ ܡܛܠ ܕܠܟܘܢ ܡܙܗܪܢ

Moreouer, my brethren, reioyce in the Lord. It grieueth mee not to write the same things to you, and for you it is a sure thing.

2 ܐܙܕܗܪܘ ܡܢ ܟܠܒܐ ܐܙܕܗܪܘ ܡܢ ܦܥܠܐ ܒܝܫܐ ܐܙܕܗܪܘ ܡܢ ܦܤܩ ܒܤܪܐ

Beware of dogges: beware of euil workers: beware of the concision.

3 ܓܙܘܪܬܐ ܓܝܪ ܚܢܢ ܐܝܬܝܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܦܠܚܝܢܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܒܪܘܚܐ ܘܡܫܬܒܗܪܝܢܢ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܠܐ ܬܟܝܠܝܢܢ ܥܠ ܒܤܪܐ

For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirite, and reioyce in Christ Iesus, and haue no confidence in the flesh:

4 ܟܕ ܠܝ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܝ ܬܘܟܠܢܐ ܐܦ ܥܠ ܒܤܪܐ ܐܢ ܓܝܪ ܐܢܫ ܤܒܪ ܕܬܘܟܠܢܗ ܒܒܤܪܐ ܗܘ ܝܬܝܪ ܡܢܗ ܐܢܐ

Though I might also haue confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, much more I,

5 ܓܙܝܪܐ ܒܪ ܬܡܢܝܐ ܝܘܡܝܢ ܡܢ ܛܘܗܡܐ ܕܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܡܢ ܫܒܛܐ ܕܒܢܝܡܝܢ ܥܒܪܝܐ ܒܪ ܥܒܪܝܐ ܒܢܡܘܤܐ ܦܪܝܫܝܐ

Circumcised the eight day, of the kinred of Israel, of the tribe of Beniamin, an Ebrewe of the Ebrewes, by the Lawe a Pharise.

6 ܒܛܢܢܐ ܪܕܘܦܐ ܕܥܕܬܐ ܘܒܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܕܢܡܘܤܐ ܕܠܐ ܪܫܝܢ ܗܘܝܬ

Concerning zeale, I persecuted ye Church: touching the righteousnesse which is in the Law, I was vnrebukeable.

7 ܐܠܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܝܘܬܪܢܐ ܗܘܝ ܠܝ ܚܘܤܪܢܐ ܚܫܒܬ ܐܢܝܢ ܡܛܠ ܡܫܝܚܐ

But the thinges that were vantage vnto me, the same I counted losse for Christes sake.

8 ܐܦ ܚܫܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܗܝܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܚܘܤܪܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܪܒܘܬܐ ܕܝܕܥܬܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܡܪܝ ܗܘ ܕܡܛܠܬܗ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܚܤܪܬ ܘܐܝܟ ܙܒܠܐ ܚܫܒܬ ܕܠܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܬܪ

Yea, doubtlesse I thinke all thinges but losse for the excellent knowledge sake of Christ Iesus my Lord, for whome I haue counted all things losse, and doe iudge them to bee dongue, that I might winne Christ,

9 ܘܐܫܬܟܚ ܒܗ ܟܕ ܠܝܬ ܠܝ ܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܕܢܦܫܝ ܗܝ ܕܡܢ ܢܡܘܤܐ ܐܠܐ ܗܝ ܕܡܢ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܙܕܝܩܘܬܐ ܕܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ

And might bee founde in him, that is, not hauing mine owne righteousnesse, which is of the Lawe, but that which is through the faith of Christ, euen the righteousnesse which is of God through faith,

10 ܕܒܗ ܐܫܬܘܕܥ ܠܝܫܘܥ ܘܠܚܝܠܐ ܕܩܝܡܬܗ ܘܐܫܬܘܬܦ ܒܚܫܘܗܝ ܘܐܬܕܡܐ ܒܡܘܬܗ

That I may know him, and the vertue of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his afflictions, and be made conformable vnto his death,

11 ܕܠܡܐ ܐܫܟܚ ܐܡܛܐ ܠܩܝܡܬܐ ܕܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܡܝܬܐ

If by any meanes I might attaine vnto the resurrection of the dead:

12 ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܟܕܘ ܢܤܒܬ ܐܘ ܡܢ ܟܕܘ ܐܬܓܡܪܬ ܐܠܐ ܪܗܛ ܐܢܐ ܕܠܡܐ ܐܕܪܟ ܠܡܕܡ ܕܡܛܠܬܗ ܐܕܪܟܢܝ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ

Not as though I had alreadie attained to it, either were alreadie perfect: but I follow, if that I may comprehend that for whose sake also I am comprehended of Christ Iesus.

13 ܐܚܝ ܐܢܐ ܥܠ ܢܦܫܝ ܠܐ ܪܢܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܕܪܟܬ ܚܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܕܕܒܤܬܪܝ ܛܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܘܠܩܕܡܝ ܡܫܬܘܫܛ ܐܢܐ

Brethren, I count not my selfe, that I haue attained to it, but one thing I doe: I forget that which is behinde, and endeuour my selfe vnto that which is before,

14 ܘܪܗܛ ܐܢܐ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܢܝܫܐ ܕܐܤܒ ܙܟܘܬܐ ܕܩܪܝܢܐ ܕܠܥܠ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ

And follow hard toward the marke, for the prise of the hie calling of God in Christ Iesus.

15 ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܓܡܝܪܝܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܗܠܝܢ ܢܬܪܥܘܢ ܘܐܢ ܡܕܡ ܐܚܪܢܝܐܝܬ ܡܬܪܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܦ ܗܕܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܢܓܠܐ ܠܟܘܢ

Let vs therefore as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if yee be otherwise minded, God shall reueile euen the same vnto you.

16 ܒܪܡ ܠܗܕܐ ܕܡܛܝܢ ܒܚܕ ܫܒܝܠܐ ܢܫܠܡ ܘܒܚܕܐ ܐܘܝܘܬܐ

Neuerthelesse, in that whereunto wee are come, let vs proceede by one rule, that wee may minde one thing.

17 ܐܬܕܡܘ ܒܝ ܐܚܝ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܡܬܒܩܝܢ ܒܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܗܟܢܐ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܒܢ ܚܙܝܬܘܢ

Brethren, bee followers of mee, and looke on them, which walke so, as yee haue vs for an ensample.

18 ܐܝܬ ܓܝܪ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܕܐܚܪܢܝܐܝܬ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܙܒܢܝܢ ܤܓܝܐܢ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܒܟܐ ܐܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܒܥܠܕܒܒܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܕܙܩܝܦܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ

For many walke, of whom I haue told you often, and nowe tell you weeping, that they are the enemies of the Crosse of Christ:

19 ܕܚܪܬܗܘܢ ܐܒܕܢܐ ܗܝ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܐܠܗܗܘܢ ܟܪܤܗܘܢ ܘܬܫܒܘܚܬܗܘܢ ܒܗܬܬܗܘܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܬܪܥܝܬܗܘܢ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܗܝ

Whose ende is damnation, whose God is their bellie, and whose glorie is to their shame, which minde earthly things.

20 ܕܝܠܢ ܕܝܢ ܦܘܠܚܢܢ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܗܘ ܘܡܢ ܬܡܢ ܡܤܟܝܢܢ ܠܡܚܝܢܐ ܠܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ

But our conuersation is in heauen, from whence also we looke for the Sauiour, euen the Lord Iesus Christ,

21 ܕܗܘ ܢܚܠܦ ܦܓܪܐ ܕܡܘܟܟܢ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܒܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܦܓܪܐ ܕܫܘܒܚܗ ܐܝܟ ܚܝܠܗ ܪܒܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܗ ܟܠ ܐܫܬܥܒܕ ܠܗ

Who shall change our vile bodie, that it may be fashioned like vnto his glorious body, according to the working, whereby hee is able euen to subdue all things vnto him selfe.
