Philippians 3:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 But the things that were [a]vantage unto me, the same I counted loss for Christ’s sake.
8 Yea, doubtless I think [b]all things but loss for the excellent knowledge sake of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have counted all things loss, and do judge them to be dung, that I might [c]win Christ,
9 And might be found in [d]him, that is, [e]not having mine own righteousness, which is of the Law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, even the righteousness which is of God through faith,
