who, existing in the form of God,
did not consider equality with God(A)
as something to be used for His own advantage.[a]
Instead He emptied Himself(B)
by assuming the form of a slave,(C)
taking on the likeness of men.(D)
And when He had come as a man
in His external form,
He humbled Himself by becoming obedient
to the point of death—
even to death on a cross.(E)
For this reason God highly exalted Him(F)
and gave Him the name
that is above every name,
10 so that at the name of Jesus
every knee will bow(G)
of those who are in heaven(H) and on earth
and under the earth(I)
11 and every tongue(J) should confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord,[b]
to the glory(K) of God the Father.

  2. Philippians 2:11 Gk kurios = Yahweh; Is 42:8 LXX

Who, being in very nature[a] God,(A)
    did not consider equality with God(B) something to be used to his own advantage;
rather, he made himself nothing(C)
    by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,(D)
    being made in human likeness.(E)
And being found in appearance as a man,
    he humbled himself
    by becoming obedient to death(F)
        even death on a cross!(G)

Therefore God exalted him(H) to the highest place
    and gave him the name that is above every name,(I)
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,(J)
    in heaven and on earth and under the earth,(K)
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,(L)
    to the glory of God the Father.
