2:2Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.

2:3Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.

2:4Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.

2:6Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

2:7But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

2:8And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

2:9Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
