(A)Have this attitude [a]in yourselves which was also in (B)Christ Jesus, who, as He already (C)existed in the (D)form of God, (E)did not consider equality with God something to be [b]grasped, but [c](F)emptied Himself by taking the form of a (G)bond-servant and [d](H)being born in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, (I)He humbled Himself by becoming (J)obedient to the point of death: (K)death [e]on a cross. (L)For this reason also God (M)highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him (N)the name which is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus (O)every knee will bow, of (P)those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is (Q)Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

The Humbled and Exalted Christ

(A)Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, (B)being in the form of God, did not consider it [a]robbery to be equal with God, (C)but [b]made Himself of no reputation, taking the form (D)of a bondservant, and (E)coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and (F)became (G)obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. (H)Therefore God also (I)has highly exalted Him and (J)given Him the name which is above every name, 10 (K)that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and (L)that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
