1 Thessalonians 4:3-8
New American Standard Bible 1995

3 For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that is, that you (A)abstain from [a]sexual immorality; 4 that (B)each of you know how to [b]possess his own [c](C)vessel in sanctification and (D)honor, 5 not in [d](E)lustful passion, like the Gentiles who (F)do not know God; 6 and that no man transgress and (G)defraud his brother (H)in the matter because (I)the Lord is the avenger in all these things, just as we also (J)told you before and solemnly warned you. 7 For (K)God has not called us for (L)the purpose of impurity, but [e]in sanctification. 8 So, he who rejects this is not rejecting man but the God who (M)gives His Holy Spirit to you.
