Let the same mind be in you that was[a] in Christ Jesus,(A)

who, though he existed in the form of God,
    did not regard equality with God
    as something to be grasped,(B)
but emptied himself,
    taking the form of a slave,
    assuming human likeness.
And being found in appearance as a human,(C)
    he humbled himself
    and became obedient to the point of death—
    even death on a cross.(D)

Therefore God exalted him even more highly
    and gave him the name
    that is above every other name,(E)
10 so that at the name given to Jesus
    every knee should bend,
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,(F)
11 and every tongue should confess
    that Jesus Christ is Lord,
    to the glory of God the Father.(G)

  1. 2.5 Or that you have

In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:(A)

Who, being in very nature[a] God,(B)
    did not consider equality with God(C) something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing(D)
    by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,(E)
    being made in human likeness.(F)
And being found in appearance as a man,
    he humbled himself
    by becoming obedient to death(G)
        even death on a cross!(H)

Therefore God exalted him(I) to the highest place
    and gave him the name that is above every name,(J)
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,(K)
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,(L)
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,(M)
    to the glory of God the Father.
