Philippians 3:7-11

Murdock(i) 7 But these things, which had been my excellence, I have accounted a detriment, because of the Messiah. 8 And now also I account them all a detriment, because of the excellency of the knowledge of Jesus the Messiah my Lord; for the sake of whom, I have parted with all things, and have accounted them as dung, that I might gain the Messiah, 9 and be found in him; since my righteousness is not now that from the law, but that which is from faith in the Messiah, that is, the righteousness which is from God; 10 that thereby I might know Jesus, and the efficacy of his resurrection; and might participate in his sufferings, and be assimilated to his death: 11 if so be, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead.
