Philippians 2:7-9

New Living Translation

⁷ Instead, he gave up his divine privileges^[a];
    he took the humble position of a slave^[b]
    and was born as a human being.
When he appeared in human form,^[c]
8     he humbled himself in obedience to God
    and died a criminal’s death on a cross.

⁹ Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor
    and gave him the name above all other names,
