5 aHave this attitude 1in yourselves which was also in bChrist Jesus,

6 who, although He aexisted in the bform of God, cdid not regard equality with God a thing to be 1grasped,

7 but 1aemptied Himself, taking the form of a bbond-servant, and cbeing made in the likeness of men.

8 Being found in appearance as a man, aHe humbled Himself by becoming bobedient to the point of death, even cdeath 1on a cross.
