Philippians 2:1-18

1If then [there be] any comfortG3874 in ChristG5547, if any consolation of loveG26, if any fellowshipG2842 of [the] SpiritG4151, if any bowels and compassions,

2fulfil my joyG5479, that ye may thinkG5426 the sameG846 thingG1520, having the sameG846 loveG26, joined in soul, thinking oneG1520 thingG1520;

3[let] nothingG3367 [be] in the spirit of strife or vain glory, but, in lowliness of mind, each esteeming the otherG240 as more excellent than themselves;

4regarding not each his ownG1438 [qualities], but each those of othersG2087 alsoG2532.

5For let this mindG5426 be in you which [was] alsoG2532 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424;

6who, subsisting in the formG3444 of 1GodG2316, did not esteemG2233 it an object of rapine to beG1510 on an equality with 2GodG2316;

7but emptied himself, takingG2983 a bondman's formG3444, takingG2983 his placeG1096 in [the] likenessG3667 of menG444;

8and having been found in figure as a man, humbledG5013 himself, becomingG1096 obedientG5255 even unto deathG2288, and [that the] deathG2288 of [the] crossG4716.

9Wherefore alsoG2532 3GodG2316 highly exalted him, and grantedG5483 him a nameG3686, that which is above every nameG3686,

10that at the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 every kneeG1119 should bowG2578, of heavenlyG2032 and earthlyG1919 and infernal [beings],

11and every tongueG1100 confessG1843 that JesusG2424 ChristG5547 [is] LordG2962 to 4GodG2316 [the] Father's gloryG1391.

12So that, my belovedG27, evenG2532 as ye have alwaysG3842 obeyedG5219, not as in my presenceG3952 onlyG3440, but nowG3568 muchG4183 ratherG3123 in my absence, workG2716 out your ownG1438 salvationG4991 with fearG5401 and trembling,

13for it isG1510 5GodG2316 who worksG1754 in you both the willingG2309 and the workingG1754 according to [his] goodG2107 pleasureG2107.

14Do all thingsG3956 without murmurings and reasonings,

15that ye may be harmless and simple, irreproachable childrenG5043 of 6GodG2316 in the midstG3319 of a crookedG4646 and pervertedG1294 generationG1074; among whom ye appearG5316 as lights in [the] worldG2889,

16holding forth [the] wordG3056 of lifeG2222, so as to be a boastG2745 for me in Christ's dayG2250, that I have not runG5143 in vainG2756 nor laboured in vainG2756.

17But if alsoG2532 I am pouredG4689 out as a libation on the sacrificeG2378 and ministration of your faithG4102, I rejoiceG5463, and rejoiceG5463 in common with you all.

18In like manner do ye alsoG2532 rejoiceG5463, and rejoiceG5463 with me.
