7but 56emptiedG2758 HimselfG1438, takingG2983 the formG3444 of a 7bond-servantG1401, and 8beingG1096 madeG1096 in the likenessG3667 of menG444.

8Being foundG2147 in appearanceG4976 as a manG444, 9He humbledG5013 HimselfG1438 by becomingG1096 10obedientG5255 to the pointG3360 of deathG2288, evenG1161 11deathG2288 12on a crossG4716.
