Philippians 2:7-15

English Standard Version

⁷ but ^(A)emptied himself, by taking the form of a ^(B)servant,^{[a] (C)}being born in the likeness of men. ⁸ And being found in human form, he humbled himself by ^(D)becoming obedient to the point of death, ^(E)even death on a cross. ^9 (F)Therefore ^(G)God has ^(H)highly exalted him and bestowed on him ^(I)the name that is above every name, ¹⁰ so that at the name of Jesus ^(J)every knee should bow, ^(K)in heaven and on earth and under the earth, ¹¹ and ^(L)every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is ^(M)Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Lights in the World

¹² Therefore, my beloved, ^(N)as you have always ^(O)obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, ¹³ for ^(P)it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for ^(Q)his good pleasure.

¹⁴ Do all things ^(R)without grumbling or ^(S)disputing, ¹⁵ that you may be blameless and innocent, ^(T)children of God ^(U)without blemish ^(V)in the midst of ^(W)a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine ^(X)as lights in the world,
