22 throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception.

22 that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts,

22 that, in reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit,
