1. If there is therefore any comfort in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassions,
2. fulfill ye my joy, that ye be of the same mind, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind;
3. doing nothing through faction or through vainglory, but in lowliness of mind each counting other better than himself;
4. not looking each of you to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others.
5. Have this mind in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6. who, being in the form of God, counted it not a prize to be on an equality with God,
7. but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men;
8. and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, becoming obedient even unto death, yea, the death of the cross.
