Philippians 2
Geneva Bible 1599
1If there be therfore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of loue, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any compassion and mercie,
2Fulfill my ioye, that ye be like minded, hauing the same loue, being of one accorde, and of one iudgement,
3That nothing be done through contention or vaine glory, but that in meekenesse of minde euery man esteeme other better then himselfe.
4Looke not euery man on his owne things, but euery man also on the things of other men.
5Let the same minde be in you that was euen in Christ Iesus,
6Who being in ye forme of God, thought it no robberie to be equall with God:
7But he made himself of no reputation, and tooke on him ye forme of a seruant, and was made like vnto men, and was founde in shape as a man.
8He humbled himselfe, and became obedient vnto the death, euen the death of the Crosse.
9Wherefore God hath also highly exalted him, and giuen him a Name aboue euery name,
10That at the Name of Iesus shoulde euery knee bowe, both of things in heauen, and things in earth, and things vnder the earth,
11And that euery tongue shoulde confesse that Iesus Christ is the Lord, vnto the glory of God the Father.
12Wherefore my beloued, as ye haue alwayes obeyed me, not as in my presence only, but now much more in mine absence, so make an end of your owne saluation with feare and trembling.
13For it is God which worketh in you, both the will and the deede, euen of his good pleasure.
