5
Your attitude should be the same that Christ Jesus had.
6
Though he was God, he did not demand and cling to his rights as God.
7
He made himself nothing; a he took the humble position of a slave and appeared in human form. b8
And in human form he obediently humbled himself even further by dying a criminal's death on a cross.
9
Because of this, God raised him up to the heights of heaven and gave him a name that is above every other name,
10
so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11
and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
