Colossians 3:5-10
English Standard Version
5 (A)Put to death therefore (B)what is earthly in you:[a] (C)sexual immorality, impurity, (D)passion, evil desire, and covetousness, (E)which is idolatry. 6 (F)On account of these the wrath of God is coming.[b] 7 (G)In these you too once walked, when you were living in them. 8 But now (H)you must put them all away: (I)anger, wrath, malice, (J)slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. 9 (K)Do not lie to one another, seeing that (L)you have put off (M)the old self[c] with its practices 10 and (N)have put on (O)the new self, (P)which is being renewed in knowledge (Q)after the image of (R)its creator.

Kehillah in Colossae 3:5-10
Orthodox Jewish Bible
5 Therefore, put to death your evarim (members) in the Olam Hazeh: zenut (fornication), debauchery, sensuality, zimmah (licentiousness), and chamdanut (covetousness), which is avodah zarah (idolatry).
6 Because of such things as these the charon af Hashem habah (the coming burning wrath of Hashem) is on the way.
7 Such was your derech to fier zich (comport oneself), the derech resha’im formerly [TEHILLIM 1:6], when you were living in these things.
8 But now you also put away all these things: ka’as (anger), rage, kavvanah ra’ah (malice) chillul Hashem (blasphemy). Put away loshon hora from your mouth.
9 Do not speak sheker to one another, having disrobed from the Adam hakadmoni (old [unregenerated] humanity) with his ma’asim (works),
10 And instead enrobe with the Adam HaChadash, the one being renewed in da’as in accordance with the demut (1:15; BERESHIS 1:26-27; Pp 2:6) of the One having created him.
