Philippians 2:1-13

1ThereforeG3767 ifG1487 you have anyG5100 encouragementG3874 inG1722 ChristG5547, ifG1487 anyG5100 comfortG3890 from His loveG26, ifG1487 anyG5100 fellowshipG2842 with the SpiritG4151, ifG1487 anyG5100 affectionG4698 andG2532 compassionG3628, 2then make myG1473 joyG5479 completeG4137 by being like-mindedG3588 G846 G5426, havingG2192 theG3588 sameG846 loveG26, being united in spiritG4861 and purposeG5426 G3588 G1520.

3Do nothingG3367 out ofG2596 selfish ambitionG2052 orG3366 empty prideG2754, butG235 in humilityG5012 considerG2233 othersG240 more important thanG5242 yourselvesG1438. 4EachG1538 of you should lookG4648 not only toG3361 your ownG1438 interestsG3588, butG235 alsoG2532 to the interestsG3588 of othersG2087.

5Let this mind beG5426 G3778 inG1722 youG4771 whichG3739 was alsoG2532 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424:

6WhoG3739, existingG5225 inG1722 the formG3444 of GodG2316,did notG3756 considerG2233 equalityG1510 G2470 with GodG2316something to be graspedG725,17butG235 emptiedG2758 HimselfG1438,takingG2983 the formG3444 of a servantG1401,being madeG1096 inG1722 human likenessG3667 G444.8AndG2532 being foundG2147 in appearanceG4976 asG5613 a manG444,He humbledG5013 HimselfG1438and becameG1096 obedientG5255 toG3360 deathG2288—evenG1161 deathG2288 on a crossG4716.

9ThereforeG1352 GodG2316 exaltedG5251 Him to the highest placeG846andG2532 gaveG5483 HimG846 theG3588 nameG3686 aboveG5228 allG3956 namesG3686,10thatG2443 atG1722 theG3588 nameG3686 of JesusG2424 everyG3956 kneeG1119 should bowG2578,in heavenG2032 andG2532 on earthG1919 andG2532 under the earthG2709,11andG2532 everyG3956 tongueG1100 confessG1843 thatG3754 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 is LordG2962,toG1519 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 the FatherG3962.

12ThereforeG5620, myG1473 belovedG27, just asG2531 you have always obeyedG3842 G5219, notG3361 onlyG3440 inG1722 myG1473 presenceG3952, butG235 nowG3568 evenG4183 moreG3123 inG1722 myG1473 absenceG666, continue to work outG2716 yourG1438 salvationG4991 withG3326 fearG5401 andG2532 tremblingG5156. 13ForG1063 it isG1510 GodG2316 whoG3588 worksG1754 inG1722 youG4771 to willG2309 andG2532 to actG1754 on behalf ofG5228 His good purposeG2107.
