Philippians 2:5-8

MNT^{(i) 5} Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, ⁶ who, though from the beginning he had the nature of God, did not reckon equality with God something to be forcibly retained, ⁷ but emptied himself of his glory by taking the form of a slave, when he was born in the likeness of men. ⁸ More than this, after he had shone himself in human form, he humbled himself in his obedience even to death; yes, and to death on a cross.
