Colossians 3:10-16

10and have 1put on the new self, which is being 2 3renewed to a true knowledge 4according to the image of the One who 5created it-- 11a renewal in which 6there is no distinction between Greek and Jew, 7circumcised and uncircumcised, 8 9barbarian, 10Scythian, 11slave, and free, but 12Christ is all, and in all.

12So, as those who have been 13chosen of God, holy and beloved, 14put on a 15heart of compassion, kindness, 16humility, gentleness, and 17 18patience; 13 19bearing with one another, and 20forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; 21just as the Lord forgave you, so must you do also. 14In addition to all these things put on love, which is 22 23the perfect bond of 24unity. 15Let 25the peace of Christ, to which you were 26indeed called in 27one body, 28rule in your hearts; and 29be thankful. 16Let 30the word of 31Christ richly dwell within you, 32with all wisdom 33teaching and admonishing 34one another 35with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, 36singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God.
