Philippians 2:6-8
Lexham English Bible
6 who, existing in the form of God,
did not consider being equal with God something to be grasped,
7 but emptied himself
by[a] taking the form of a slave,
by[b] becoming in the likeness of people.
And being found in appearance like a man,
8 he humbled himself
by[c] becoming obedient to the point of death,
that is, death on a cross.
