But it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant.

And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave;

But it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant.

And whoever of you desires to become first shall be slave of all.

But not so among you; rather, he who is greater among you, let him be as the younger, and he who leads as he who serves.

For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves.

If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.

For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.

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

but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.
