7 Instead he emptied himselfn

by assuming the form of a servant,o

taking on the likeness of humanity.p

And when he had come as a man,

8 he humbled himself by becoming obedient

to the point of death—

even to death on a cross.q

9 For this reason God highly exalted himr

and gave him the name

that is above every name,

10 so that at the name of Jesus

every knee will bows—

in heavent and on earth

and under the earthu—

11 and every tonguev will confess

that Jesus Christ is Lord,

to the gloryw of God the Father.
