Philippians 2:6-8 (New International Version)
6
Who, being in very naturea God,1 did not consider equality with God2 something to be grasped,
7
but made himself nothing,3 taking the very natureb of a servant,4 being made in human likeness.5
8
And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death6-- even death on a cross!
