5 Tenham entre vocês o mesmo modo de pensar de Cristo Jesus, 6 que, mesmo existindo na forma de Deus, não considerou o ser igual a Deus algo que deveria ser retido a qualquer custo. 7 Pelo contrário, ele se esvaziou, assumindo a forma de servo, tornando-se semelhante aos seres humanos. E, reconhecido em figura humana, 8 ele se humilhou, tornando-se obediente até a morte, e morte de cruz.

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

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 on 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 to death, even the death of the cross.
