Not that I have already grasped it all or have already become perfect, but I press on if I may also take hold of that for which I was even taken hold of by Christ Jesus.

Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.

Brothers and sisters, I do not regard myself as having taken hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead,

Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

Therefore, all who are mature, let's have this attitude; and if in anything you have a different attitude, God will reveal that to you as well;

Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.

however, let's keep living by that same standard to which we have attained.

Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.
