Philippians 2:6-11
Chapter 2
6
Though he was in the form of God,
he did not consider equality with God
something to be grasped.
7
Instead, he emptied himself
by taking on the nature of a servant,
made in human likeness,
and appeared as a man,
8
He humbled himself
by obediently facing death
—death on the cross.
9
That is why God exalted him
and gave him the name
above all names,
10
so that at the name of Jesus, all knees should bow
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11
and every tongue should confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
