Philippians 3

1 Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is no trouble to me, and is a safeguard for you.

V ostalem, bratje moji, veselite se v Gospodu. Isto pisati vam ni sitno meni, vam pa v potrjenje.

2 Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the false circumcision.

Pazite se psov, pazite se slabih delalcev, pazite se razkolja!

3 For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Ruach, and rejoice in Messiah Yeshua, and have no confidence in the flesh;

Kajti mi smo obreza, ki v duhu služimo Bogu in se hvalimo v Kristusu Jezusu, in ne zaupamo v meso;

4 though I myself might have confidence even in the flesh. If anyone else thinks that he has confidence in the flesh, I yet more:

Dasì bi imel jaz tudi v meso zaupanje. Če méni kdo drug zaupati v meso, jaz bolj;

5 circumcised the eighth day, of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; concerning the law, a Pharisee;

Obrezan osmi dan, iz rodú Izraelovega, rodovine Benjaminove, Hebrejec iz Hebrejcev, po postavi Farizej,

6 concerning zeal, persecuting the congregation; concerning the righteousness which is in the law, found blameless.

Po gorečnosti preganjalec občine, po pravičnosti v postavi bréz pogreška.

7 However, what things were gain to me, these have I counted loss for Messiah.

Ali kar mi je bilo dobiček, to sem imel zaradi Kristusa za izgubo;

8 More than that, I count all things to be a loss compared to the far greater value of knowing Messiah Yeshua, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Messiah

Ali zares tudi zdaj imam vse za izgubo zavoljo preobilosti spoznanja Kristusa Jezusa, Gospoda svojega, za katerega voljo sem vse izgubil, in za smeti imam, da pridobim Kristusa,

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;

In se najdem v njem, ne da imam svojo pravico iz postave, nego po veri Kristusovi, iz Boga pravico v veri;

10 that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death;

Da spoznam njega in vstajenja njegovega moč, in sodeleštvo njegovega trpljenja, storivši se podobnega smrti njegovi,

11 if by any means I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.

Če pač pridem do vstajenja mrtvih;

12 Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, if it is so that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Messiah Yeshua.

Ne da sem že dosegel ali sem že popoln; a lovim, če pač dosežem, za kar sem tudi vjet bil od Kristusa Jezusa.

13 Brothers, I do not regard myself as having taken hold of it, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and reaching forward to the things which are ahead,

Bratje, jaz ne sodim, da sem dosegel;

14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Messiah Yeshua.

Eno pa: pozabivši kar je zadaj, a spenjajoč se po tém, kar je spredaj, proti smotru hitim za darilom nebeškega poklica Božjega v Kristusu Jezusu.

15 Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, think this way. If in anything you think otherwise, God will also reveal that to you.

Kolikor nas je torej popolnih, bodimo teh misli; in če ste v čem drugih misli, bode vam tudi to Bog razodel.

16 Nevertheless, to what we have attained, let us walk by the same rule, being of the same mind.

Todà do česar smo dospeli, isto bodi nam pravilo v dejanji, isto v mišljenji.

17 Brothers, be imitators together of me, and note those who walk this way, even as you have us for an example.

Posnemalci moji bodite vsi, bratje, in glejte one, kateri tako živé, kakor imate nas za zgled.

18 For many, of whom I have often told you, and now tell you with tears, live as enemies of the cross of Messiah,

Kajti mnogo jih živi, katere sem vam mnogokrat imenoval, zdaj pa jih tudi jokajoč imenujem, sovražnike križa Kristusovega,

19 whose end is destruction, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who think about earthly things.

Katerih konec poguba, katerih Bog trebuh, in slava v njih sramoti, ki jim je zemeljsko v mislih.

20 For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Yeshua the Messiah;

Kajti naše dejanje je v nebesih, od koder tudi zveličarja pričakujemo Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa,

21 who will transform our lowly body into the likeness of his glorious body, according to the power by which he is able even to subject all things to himself.

Kateri bode telo ponižanja našega preizobrazil, da bode podobno telesu slave njegove, po kreposti, s katero si more tudi vse podvreči.
