Ephesians 4:25-32
25ThereforeG1352, 1layingG659 asideG659 falsehoodG5579, 2speakG2980 truthG225 eachG1538 oneG1538 of you with his neighborG4139, for we are 3membersG3196 of oneG240 anotherG240.
264Be angryG3710, and yet do not sinG264; do not let the sunG2246 goG1931 downG1931 on your angerG3950,
27and do not 5giveG1325 the devilG1228 6an opportunityG5117.
28He who stealsG2813 must stealG2813 noG3371 longerG3371; but ratherG3123 7he must laborG2872, 8performingG2038 with his ownG2398 handsG5495 whatG18 is goodG18, 9soG2443 that he will haveG2192 something to shareG3330 with 10oneG3588 who hasG2192 needG5532.
29Let noG3361G3956 1112unwholesomeG4550 wordG3056 proceedG1607 from your mouthG4750, but onlyG1487 suchG5100 a word as is goodG18 for 13edificationG3619 14according to the needG5532 of the moment, soG2443 that it will giveG1325 graceG5485 to thoseG3588 who hearG191.
3015Do not grieveG3076 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, 16by whomG3739 you were 17sealedG4972 for the dayG2250 of redemptionG629.
3118Let allG3956 bitternessG4088 and wrathG2372 and angerG3709 and clamorG2906 and slanderG988 be 19putG142 awayG142 from you, alongG4862 with allG3956 20maliceG2549.
3221Be kindG5543 to oneG240 anotherG240, tender-heartedG2155, forgivingG5483 eachG1438 otherG1438, 22justG2531 as GodG2316 in ChristG5547 alsoG2532 has forgivenG5483 23you.
