Philippians 2:2-8
New American Standard Bible
2 (A)make my joy complete [a]by (B)being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose. 3 Do nothing [b]from [c](C)selfishness or (D)empty conceit, but with humility (E)consider one another as more important than yourselves; 4 (F)do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. 5 (G)Have this attitude [d]in yourselves which was also in (H)Christ Jesus, 6 who, as He already (I)existed in the (J)form of God, (K)did not consider equality with God something to be [e]grasped, 7 but [f](L)emptied Himself by taking the form of a (M)bond-servant and [g](N)being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, (O)He humbled Himself by becoming (P)obedient to the point of death: (Q)death [h]on a cross.
