Philippians 2:5-8

51Have this attitude 2in yourselves which was also in 3Christ Jesus,

6who, although He 4existed in the 5form of God, 6did not regard equality with God a thing to be 7grasped,

7but 89emptied Himself, taking the form of a 10bond-servant, and 11being made in the likeness of men.

8Being found in appearance as a man, 12He humbled Himself by becoming 13obedient to the point of death, even 14death 15on a cross.
