5 Let this mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus,

6 To whom, though himself in the form of God, it did not seem that to take for oneself was to be like God;

7 But he made himself as nothing, taking the form of a servant, being made like men;

8 And being seen in form as a man, he took the lowest place, and let himself be put to death, even the death of the cross.

5 Have this in your mind, which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, existing in the form of God, didn’t consider equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to the point of death, yes, the death of the cross.
