Elijah Pronounces God’s Sentence
17 Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,(A) 18 “Go down to meet King Ahab of Israel, who rules[a] in Samaria; he is now in the vineyard of Naboth, where he has gone to take possession.(B) 19 You shall say to him: Thus says the Lord: Have you killed and also taken possession? You shall say to him: Thus says the Lord: In the place where dogs licked up the blood of Naboth, dogs will also lick up your blood.”(C)

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 Let the same mind be in you that was[a] in Christ Jesus,(A)
6 who, though he existed in the form of God,
did not regard equality with God
as something to be grasped,(B)
7 but emptied himself,
taking the form of a slave,
assuming human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a human,(C)
8 he humbled himself
and became obedient to the point of death—
even death on a cross.(D)
9 Therefore God exalted him even more highly
and gave him the name
that is above every other name,(E)
10 so that at the name given to Jesus
every knee should bend,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,(F)
11 and every tongue should confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.(G)
