The Corinthians’ Repentance

7 Therefore,^(A) having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

²² But now ^(A)having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit ^[a]to holiness, and the end, everlasting life.

¹⁰ For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, ^(A)that we may be partakers of His holiness.

^14 (A)Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, ^(B)without which no one will see the Lord:

^15 (A)but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, ¹⁶ because it is written, ^(B)“Be holy, for I am holy.”

¹⁷ And if you call on the Father, who ^(C)without partiality judges according to each one’s work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your ^[a]stay here in fear;

³ For this is ^(A)the will of God, ^(B)your sanctification: ^(C)that you should abstain from sexual immorality; ^4 (D)that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, ^5 (E)not in passion of lust, ^(F)like the Gentiles ^(G)who do not know God;

⁷ For God did not call us to uncleanness, ^(A)but in holiness.
