Ephesians 4:17–32

¹⁷This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ^cye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, ^din the vanity of their mind, ^18ehaving the understanding darkened, ^fbeing alienated from the life of God through ^gthe ignorance that is in them, because of the ^dblindness of their heart: ¹⁹who ^ggbeing past feeling ^hhave given themselves over unto ⁱlasciviousness, to work all ⁱuncleanness with greediness. ²⁰But ye have not so learned Christ; ²¹if so be that ^jye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: ²²that ye ^kput off ^lconcerning the former ^mconversation ⁿthe old man, ^owhich is corrupt according to ^oothe deceitful lusts; ²³and ^pbe renewed in the spirit of your mind; ²⁴and that ye put on ^qthe new man, which ^rafter God ^sis created in ^trighteousness and true ^tholiness.

²⁵Wherefore ^kputting away lying, ^uspeak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are ^wmembers one of another. ^26xBe ye angry, and sin not: ^ylet not ^zthe sun go down upon your wrath: ²⁷neither ^agive place to the devil. ²⁸Let him that stole steal no more: but rather ^blet him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, ^cthat he may have to give ^dto him that needeth. ^29eLet no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good ^fto the use of edifying, that it may minister ^ggrace unto the hearers. ³⁰And ^higrieve not ^hkthe holy Spirit of God, ^lwhereby ye are sealed unto the day of ^mredemption. ³¹Let all ⁿbitterness, and ^owrath, and ^oanger, and clamour, and ^opevil speaking, be put away from you, with all ^oqmalice: ³²and be ye ^rkind one to another, ^stender hearted, ^rtforgiving one another, ^reven as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.
