Philippians 2:2-8
21makeG4137 my joyG5479 completeG4137 2by 3beingG5426 ofG5426 the sameG846 mindG5426, maintainingG2192 the sameG846 loveG26, unitedG4861 inG4861 spiritG4861, intentG5426 onG5426 oneG1520 purposeG5426.
3Do nothingG3367 4from 56selfishnessG2052 orG3366 7emptyG2754 conceitG2754, but with humilityG5012 8considerG2233 oneG240 anotherG240 as moreG5242 importantG5242 than yourselvesG1438;
49do not merely lookG4648 outG4648 forG4648 your ownG1438 personalG1538 interests, but alsoG2532 for the interests of othersG2087.
510HaveG5426 thisG3778 attitudeG5426 11in yourselvesG4771 whichG3739 was alsoG2532 in 12ChristG5547 JesusG2424,
6whoG3739, as He already 13existedG5225 in the 14formG3444 of GodG2316, 15did not considerG2233 equalityG2470 with GodG2316 somethingG725 toG725 beG725 16graspedG725,
7but 1718emptiedG2758 HimselfG1438 by takingG2983 the formG3444 of a 19bond-servantG1401 and 2021beingG1096 bornG1096 in the likenessG3667 of menG444.
8And being foundG2147 in appearanceG4976 as a manG444, 22He humbledG5013 HimselfG1438 by becomingG1096 23obedientG5255 to the pointG3360 of deathG2288: 24deathG2288 25on a crossG4716.
