6 who, though he existed in the form of God,
did not regard equality with God
as something to be grasped,(A)
7 but emptied himself,
taking the form of a slave,
assuming human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a human,(B)
8 he humbled himself
and became obedient to the point of death—
even death on a cross.(C)

29 Jesus answered, “The first is, ‘Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one;(A) 30 you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 31 The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”(B) 32 Then the scribe said to him, “You are right, Teacher; you have truly said that ‘he is one, and besides him there is no other’;(C) 33 and ‘to love him with all the heart and with all the understanding and with all the strength’ and ‘to love one’s neighbor as oneself’—this is much more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”(D)

Hebrews 2:6-13
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
6 But someone has testified somewhere,
“What are humans that you are mindful of them[a]
or mortals that you care for them?[b](A)
7 You have made them for a little while lower[c] than the angels;
you have crowned them with glory and honor,[d]
8 subjecting all things under their feet.”
Now in subjecting all things to them, God[e] left nothing outside their control. As it is, we do not yet see everything in subjection to them,(B) 9 but we do see Jesus, who for a little while was made lower[f] than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God[g] he might taste death for everyone.(C)
10 It was fitting that God,[h] for whom and through whom all things exist, in bringing many children to glory, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through sufferings.(D) 11 For the one who sanctifies and those who are sanctified all have one Father.[i] For this reason Jesus[j] is not ashamed to call them brothers and sisters,(E) 12 saying,
“I will proclaim your name to my brothers and sisters;
in the midst of the congregation I will praise you.”(F)
13 And again,
“I will put my trust in him.”
And again,
“Here am I and the children whom God has given me.”(G)
