Philippians 2:4-7

41do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.

52Have this attitude 3in yourselves which was also in 4Christ Jesus,

6who, as He already 5existed in the 6form of God, 7did not consider equality with God something to be 8grasped,

7but 910emptied Himself by taking the form of a 11bond-servant and 1213being born in the likeness of men.
