5 Let this mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus,

6 To whom, though himself in the form of God, it did not seem that to take for oneself was to be like God;

7 But he made himself as nothing, taking the form of a servant, being made like men;

8 And being seen in form as a man, he took the lowest place, and let himself be put to death, even the death of the cross.

5 La dette sinn være i eder, som og var i Kristus Jesus,

6 han som, da han var i Guds skikkelse, ikke aktet det for et rov å være Gud lik,

7 men av sig selv gav avkall på det og tok en tjeners skikkelse på sig, idet han kom i menneskers lignelse,

8 og da han i sin ferd var funnet som et menneske, fornedret han sig selv, så han blev lydig inntil døden, ja korsets død.
