Philippians 2:7-9

EasyEnglish Bible

⁷ Instead, he chose to leave heaven.
He took for himself the nature of a slave.
He became like a human.
⁸ And when he lived as a man,
he made himself even less important.
He obeyed God completely, so that he died.
He even died on a cross!^[a]
9 Because of that, God then raised Jesus Christ to the most important place.
God gave him the name that is greater than every other name.
