22 Flee(D) from youthful passions, and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace,(E) along with those who call on the Lord(F) from a pure heart.

International Standard Version
20 In a large house there are not only utensils made of gold and silver, but also those made of wood and clay. Some are for special use, while others are for ordinary use. 21 Therefore, if anyone stops associating with[a] these people, he will become a special utensil, set apart for the owner’s use, prepared for every good action.
22 Flee from youthful passions. Instead, pursue righteousness, faithfulness,[b] love, and peace together with those who call on the Lord with a pure heart.
