Philippians 2:6-11 #TPT
He existed in the form of God, yet he gave no thought to seizing equality with God as his supreme prize.
Instead he emptied himself of his outward glory by reducing himself to the form of a lowly servant. He became human!
He humbled himself and became vulnerable, choosing to be revealed as a man and was obedient. He was a perfect example , even in his death—a criminal’s death by crucifixion!
Because of that obedience, God exalted him and multiplied his greatness! He has now been given the greatest of all names!
The authority of the name of Jesus causes every knee to bow in reverence! Everything and everyone will one day submit to this name—in the heavenly realm, in the earthly realm, and in the demonic realm.
And every tongue will proclaim in every language: “Jesus Christ is Lord Yahweh,” bringing glory and honor to God, his Father!

@styves that translation seems unclear about the deity of Jesus
@gladflicka Hi, it's translated directly from the Aramean; here is the King James Version; Shalom.
Philippians 2:6-11 #KJV
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
