Philippians 2:5-11

Evangelical Heritage Version

Jesus Humbled Himself

⁵ Indeed,^[a] let this attitude be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus. ⁶ Though he was by nature God,^[b] he did not consider equality with God as a prize to be displayed,^{[c] 7} but he emptied himself by taking the nature^[d] of a servant. When he was born in human likeness, and his appearance was like that of any other man,^{[e] 8} he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death—even death on a cross. ⁹ Therefore God also highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, ¹⁰ so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, ¹¹ and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
