Colossians 3:5-8

51ThereforeG3767 2considerG3499 3the membersG3196 of your earthlyG1093 body as deadG3499 to 45immoralityG4202, impurityG167, passionG3806, evilG2556 desireG1939, and greedG4124, whichG3748 6amountsG1510 to idolatryG1495.

6For it is becauseG1223 of theseG3739 thingsG3739 that 7the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 will comeG2064 8upon the sonsG5207 of disobedienceG545,

7and 9in them you alsoG2532 onceG4218 walkedG4043, whenG3753 you were livingG2198 10in them.

8But nowG3570 you alsoG2532, 11putG659 them allG3956 asideG659: 12angerG3709, wrathG2372, maliceG2549, slanderG988, and 13abusiveG148 speechG148 from your mouthG4750.
