Philippians 2:6-8
Christian Standard Bible
6 who, existing in the form of God,
did not consider equality with God(A)
as something to be exploited.[a]
7 Instead he emptied himself(B)
by assuming the form of a servant,(C)
taking on the likeness of humanity.(D)
And when he had come as a man,
8 he humbled himself by becoming obedient
to the point of death—
even to death on a cross.(E)

6 Who, being in very nature[a] God,(A)
did not consider equality with God(B) something to be used to his own advantage;
7 rather, he made himself nothing(C)
by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,(D)
being made in human likeness.(E)
8 And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death(F)—
even death on a cross!(G)

6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
