1 For the rest, my brethren, rejoice in [the] Lord: to write the same things to you, to me [is] not irksome, and for you safe.
1 RESTA, hermanos, que os gocéis en el Señor. A mí, á la verdad, no es molesto el escribiros las mismas cosas, y para vosotros es seguro.
2 See to dogs, see to evil workmen, see to the concision.
2 Guardaos de los perros, guardaos de los malos obreros, guardaos del cortamiento.
3 For we are the circumcision, who worship by [the] Spirit of God, and boast in Christ Jesus, and do not trust in flesh.
3 Porque nosotros somos la circuncisión, los que servimos en espíritu á Dios, y nos gloriamos en Cristo Jesús, no teniendo confianza en la carne.
4 Though I have [my] trust even in flesh; if any other think to trust in flesh, I rather:
4 Aunque yo tengo también de qué confiar en la carne. Si alguno parece que tiene de qué confiar en la carne, yo más:
5 as to circumcision, [I received it] the eighth day; of [the] race of Israel, of [the] tribe of Benjamin, Hebrew of Hebrews; as to [the] law, a Pharisee;
5 Circuncidado al octavo día, del linaje de Israel, de la tribu de Benjamín, Hebreo de Hebreos; cuanto á la ley, Fariseo;
6 as to zeal, persecuting the assembly; as to righteousness which [is] in [the] law, found blameless;
6 Cuanto al celo, perseguidor de la iglesia; cuanto á la justicia que es en la ley, irreprensible.
7 but what things were gain to me these I counted, on account of Christ, loss.
7 Pero las cosas que para mí eran ganancias, helas reputado pérdidas por amor de Cristo.
8 But surely I count also all things to be loss on account of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, on account of whom I have suffered the loss of all, and count them to be filth, that I may gain Christ;
8 Y ciertamente, aun reputo todas las cosas pérdida por el eminente conocimiento de Cristo Jesús, mi Señor, por amor del cual lo he perdido todo, y téngolo por estiércol, para ganar á Cristo,
9 and that I may be found in him, not having my righteousness, which [would be] on the principle of law, but that which is by faith of Christ, the righteousness which [is] of God through faith,
9 Y ser hallado en él, no teniendo mi justicia, que es por la ley, sino la que es por la fe de Cristo, la justicia que es de Dios por la fe;
10 to know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death,
10 A fin de conocerle, y la virtud de su resurrección, y la participación de sus padecimientos, en conformidad á su muerte,
11 if any way I arrive at the resurrection from among [the] dead.
11 Si en alguna manera llegase á la resurrección de los muertos.
12 Not that I have already obtained [the prize], or am already perfected; but I pursue, if also I may get possession [of it], seeing that also I have been taken possession of by Christ [Jesus].
12 No que ya haya alcanzado, ni que ya sea perfecto; sino que prosigo, por ver si alcanzo [aquello] para lo cual fuí también alcanzado de Cristo Jesús.
13 Brethren, I do not count to have got possession myself; but one thing — forgetting the things behind, and stretching out to the things before,
13 Hermanos, yo mismo no hago cuenta de haber[lo] ya alcanzado; pero una cosa [hago]: olvidando ciertamente lo que queda atrás, y extendiéndome á lo que está delante,
14 I pursue, [looking] towards [the] goal, for the prize of the calling on high of God in Christ Jesus.
14 Prosigo al blanco, al premio de la soberana vocación de Dios en Cristo Jesús.
15 As many therefore as [are] perfect, let us be thus minded; and if ye are any otherwise minded, this also God shall reveal to you.
15 Así que, todos los que somos perfectos, esto [mismo] sintamos: y si otra cosa sentís, esto también os revelará Dios.
16 But whereto we have attained, [let us] walk in the same steps.
16 Empero en aquello á que hemos llegado, vamos por la misma regla, sintamos una misma cosa.
17 Be imitators [all] together of me, brethren, and fix your eyes on those walking thus as you have us for a model;
17 Hermanos, sed imitadores de mí, y mirad los que así anduvieren como nos tenéis por ejemplo.
18 (for many walk of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they [are] the enemies of the cross of Christ:
18 Porque muchos andan, de los cuales os dije muchas veces, y aun ahora [lo] digo llorando, [que son] enemigos de la cruz de Cristo:
19 whose end [is] destruction, whose god [is] the belly, and [their] glory in their shame, who mind earthly things:)
19 Cuyo fin [será] perdición, cuyo dios es el vientre, y su gloria es en confusión; que sienten lo terreno.
20 for our commonwealth has its existence in [the] heavens, from which also we await the Lord Jesus Christ [as] Saviour,
20 Mas nuestra vivienda es en los cielos; de donde también esperamos al Salvador, al Señor Jesucristo;
21 who shall transform our body of humiliation into conformity to his body of glory, according to the working of [the] power which he has even to subdue all things to himself.
21 El cual transformará el cuerpo de nuestra bajeza, para ser semejante al cuerpo de su gloria, por la operación con la cual puede también sujetar á sí todas las cosas.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Dejection and care, whenever they strain the soul beyond due measure, bereave it of its native force. And therefore Paul relieves the Philippians, who were in great despondency, and they were in despondency because they did not know how matters were with Paul; they were in despondency because they thought that it was already over with him, because of the …

Of which resurrection the apostle speaks in the Epistle to the Philippians: "Having been made conformable to His death, if by any means I might attain to the resurrection which is from the dead." In what other mortal flesh, therefore, can life be understood as being manifested, unless in that substance which is also put to death on account of …
We then were conversing alone very pleasantly; and, "forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before," we were seeking between ourselves in the presence of the Truth, which Thou art, of what nature the eternal life of the saints would be, which eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath entered into …

Yet they were at least ashamed when they were naked, but ye take a pride in it; "having," according to that saying of the apostle, "your glory in your shame." How then will thy wife thenceforward look upon thee, when thou art returned from such wickedness?

Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord alway; again I will say, Rejoice: for your redemption hath drawn nigh, and the heavenly host of the Angels is waiting for your salvation.
