Colossians 3:8-14

English Standard Version

⁸ But now ^(A)you must put them all away: ^(B)anger, wrath, malice, ^(C)slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. ^9 (D)Do not lie to one another, seeing that ^(E)you have put off ^(F)the old self^[a] with its practices ¹⁰ and ^(G)have put on ^(H)the new self, ^(I)which is being renewed in knowledge ^(J)after the image of ^(K)its creator. ^11 (L)Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave,^[b] free; but Christ is ^(M)all, and in all.

^12 (N)Put on then, as ^(O)God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, ^(P)compassionate hearts, ^(Q)kindness, ^(R)humility, meekness, and patience, ^13 (S)bearing with one another and, ^(T)if one has a complaint against another, ^(U)forgiving each other; ^(V)as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. ¹⁴ And above all these put on ^(W)love, which ^(X)binds everything together in ^(Y)perfect harmony.
