Philippians 2:3-9
3Do nothingG3367 1from 23selfishnessG2052 orG3366 4emptyG2754 conceitG2754, but with humilityG5012 5considerG2233 oneG240 anotherG240 as moreG5242 importantG5242 than yourselvesG1438;
46do not merely lookG4648 outG4648 forG4648 your ownG1438 personalG1538 interests, but alsoG2532 for the interests of othersG2087.
57HaveG5426 thisG3778 attitudeG5426 8in yourselvesG4771 whichG3739 was alsoG2532 in 9ChristG5547 JesusG2424,
6whoG3739, as He already 10existedG5225 in the 11formG3444 of GodG2316, 12did not considerG2233 equalityG2470 with GodG2316 somethingG725 toG725 beG725 13graspedG725,
7but 1415emptiedG2758 HimselfG1438 by takingG2983 the formG3444 of a 16bond-servantG1401 and 1718beingG1096 bornG1096 in the likenessG3667 of menG444.
8And being foundG2147 in appearanceG4976 as a manG444, 19He humbledG5013 HimselfG1438 by becomingG1096 20obedientG5255 to the pointG3360 of deathG2288: 21deathG2288 22on a crossG4716.
923For thisG1352 reasonG1352 alsoG2532 GodG2316 24highlyG5251 exaltedG5251 Him, and bestowedG5483 on Him 25the nameG3686 which is aboveG5228 everyG3956 nameG3686,
