English Standard Version
3 Do nothing from (A)selfish ambition or (B)conceit, but in (C)humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you (D)look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. 5 (E)Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,[a] 6 (F)who, though he was in (G)the form of God, did not count equality with God (H)a thing to be grasped,[b] 7 but (I)emptied himself, by taking the form of a (J)servant,[c] (K)being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by (L)becoming obedient to the point of death, (M)even death on a cross.

Philippians 2:3-8
New International Version
3 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit.(A) Rather, in humility value others above yourselves,(B) 4 not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.(C)
5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:(D)
6 Who, being in very nature[a] God,(E)
did not consider equality with God(F) something to be used to his own advantage;
7 rather, he made himself nothing(G)
by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,(H)
being made in human likeness.(I)
8 And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death(J)—
even death on a cross!(K)
