⁶ Who, though existing in the form of God,
did not consider being equal to God a thing to be grasped.
⁷ But He emptied Himself—
taking on the form of a slave,
becoming the likeness of men
and being found in appearance as a man.
⁸ He humbled Himself—
becoming obedient to the point of death,
even death on a cross.
⁹ For this reason God highly exalted Him
and gave Him the name that is above every name,
¹⁰ that at the name of Yeshua every knee should bow,^[a]
in heaven and on the earth and under the earth,
¹¹ and every tongue profess that Yeshua the Messiah is Lord—
to the glory of God the Father.
