Colossians 3:5-15

5Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

6On account of these the wrath of God is coming.

7In these you too once walked, when you were living in them.

8But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth.

9Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices

10and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.

11Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free; but Christ is all, and in all.

12Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience,

13bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.

14And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.

15And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.
