Philippians 2:1-9
1ThereforeG3767 ifG1487 there is anyG5100 encouragementG3874 in ChristG5547, ifG1487 there is anyG5100 consolationG3890 of loveG26, ifG1487 there is anyG5100 1fellowshipG2842 of the SpiritG4151, ifG1487 anyG5100 23affectionG4698 and compassionG3628,
24makeG4137 my joyG5479 completeG4137 5by 6being of the sameG846 mindG5426, maintainingG2192 the sameG846 loveG26, unitedG4861 in spiritG4861, intentG5426 on oneG1520 purposeG5426.
3Do nothingG3367 7from 89selfishnessG2052 orG3366 10emptyG2754 conceitG2754, but with humilityG5012 of mindG5012 11regardG2233 oneG240 anotherG240 as moreG5242 importantG5242 than yourselvesG1438;
412do not merely lookG4648 out for your ownG1438 personalG1538 interests, but alsoG2532 for the interests of othersG2087.
513HaveG5426 thisG3778 attitudeG5426 14in yourselvesG4771 whichG3739 was alsoG2532 in 15ChristG5547 JesusG2424,
6whoG3739, although He 16existedG5225 in the 17formG3444 of GodG2316, 18did not regardG2233 equalityG2470 with GodG2316 a thingG725 to be 19graspedG725,
7but 2021emptiedG2758 HimselfG1438, takingG2983 the formG3444 of a 22bond-servantG1401, and 23beingG1096 madeG1096 in the likenessG3667 of menG444.
8Being foundG2147 in appearanceG4976 as a manG444, 24He humbledG5013 HimselfG1438 by becomingG1096 25obedientG5255 to the pointG3360 of deathG2288, evenG1161 26deathG2288 27on a crossG4716.
928For thisG1352 reasonG1352 alsoG2532, GodG2316 29highlyG5251 exaltedG5251 Him, and bestowedG5483 on Him 30the nameG3686 which is aboveG5228 everyG3956 nameG3686,
