Put On the New Self

(A)If then you have been raised with Christ, seek (B)the things that are above, where Christ is, (C)seated at the right hand of God. (D)Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For (E)you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ (F)who is your[a] life (G)appears, then you also will appear with him (H)in glory.

(I)Put to death therefore (J)what is earthly in you:[b] (K)sexual immorality, impurity, (L)passion, evil desire, and covetousness, (M)which is idolatry. (N)On account of these the wrath of God is coming.[c] (O)In these you too once walked, when you were living in them. But now (P)you must put them all away: (Q)anger, wrath, malice, (R)slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. (S)Do not lie to one another, seeing that (T)you have put off (U)the old self[d] with its practices 10 and (V)have put on (W)the new self, (X)which is being renewed in knowledge (Y)after the image of (Z)its creator. 11 (AA)Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave,[e] free; but Christ is (AB)all, and in all.

12 (AC)Put on then, as (AD)God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, (AE)compassionate hearts, (AF)kindness, (AG)humility, meekness, and patience, 13 (AH)bearing with one another and, (AI)if one has a complaint against another, (AJ)forgiving each other; (AK)as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14 And above all these put on (AL)love, which (AM)binds everything together in (AN)perfect harmony. 15 And let (AO)the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called (AP)in one body. And (AQ)be thankful. 16 Let (AR)the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, (AS)singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, (AT)with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 17 And (AU)whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, (AV)giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Rules for Christian Households

18 (AW)Wives, submit to your husbands, as (AX)is fitting in the Lord. 19 Husbands, love your wives, and (AY)do not be harsh with them. 20 Children, obey your parents (AZ)in everything, for this pleases the Lord. 21 Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged. 22 Bondservants, obey (BA)in everything those who are your earthly masters,[f] not by way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. 23 (BB)Whatever you do, work heartily, (BC)as for the Lord and not for men, 24 knowing that from the Lord (BD)you will receive the inheritance as your reward. (BE)You are serving the Lord Christ. 25 For the wrongdoer will be paid back for the wrong he has done, and there is no partiality.

追求屬天的事

你們既然和基督一同復活了,就應當追求天上的事,那裡有坐在上帝右邊的基督。 你們要思想天上的事,而不是地上的事, 因為你們的舊生命已經死了,你們的新生命與基督一同藏在上帝裡面。 基督就是你們的新生命,祂顯現的時候,你們也必和祂一起在榮耀中顯現。

所以,你們要治死身上屬世的罪惡,如淫亂、污穢、邪情、惡慾和貪心,貪心就是拜偶像, 因為上帝的烈怒必臨到做這些事的悖逆之人。 你們過去也和他們一樣過著罪惡的生活, 但現在必須杜絕這一切的惡事,如怒氣、憤恨、惡毒、毀謗和污言穢語。 不要彼此說謊,因為你們已經脫去了舊人和舊的行為, 10 穿上了新人。這新人在知識上不斷更新,更像他的造物主。 11 從此,不再分希臘人、猶太人,受割禮的、未受割禮的,野蠻人、未開化的人[a],奴隸和自由人,基督就是一切,並且貫穿一切。

12 所以,你們既然是上帝所揀選的,是聖潔、蒙愛的人,就要心存憐憫、恩慈、謙虛、溫柔和忍耐。 13 倘若彼此之間有怨言,總要互相寬容,彼此饒恕,主怎樣饒恕你們,你們也要照樣饒恕他人。 14 最重要的是要有愛,愛能把一切完美地聯合在一起。 15 要讓基督的平安掌管你們的心,你們就是為此而蒙召成為一個身體。要常存感恩的心。 16 要將基督的話豐豐富富地存在心裡,用各樣智慧彼此教導,互相勸誡,以感恩的心用詩篇、聖樂、靈歌頌讚上帝。 17 你們無論做什麼事、說什麼話,都要奉主耶穌的名而行,並藉著祂感謝父上帝。

和諧家庭

18 你們作妻子的,要順服丈夫,信主的人應當這樣做。 19 你們作丈夫的,要愛妻子,不可惡待她們。 20 你們作兒女的,凡事要聽從父母,因為這是主所喜悅的。 21 你們作父親的,不要激怒兒女,免得他們灰心喪志。 22 你們作奴僕的,凡事要聽從你們世上的主人,不要只做討好人的表面工夫,要以敬畏主的心真誠服侍。 23 無論做什麼事,都要發自內心,像是為主做的,而不是為人做的, 24 因為你們知道自己一定會從主那裡得到基業為獎賞。你們事奉的是主基督, 25 凡作惡的人終必自食惡果,因為上帝不偏待人。

Tuntunin Para sa Matuwid na Pamumuhay

Yamang kayo nga ay muling binuhay na kasama ni Cristo, hanapin ninyo ang mga bagay na nasa itaas, kung saan si Cristo ay nakaupo sakanan ng Diyos.

Ituon ninyo ang inyong pag-iisip sa mga bagay na nasaitaas at hindi sa mga bagay na nasa lupa. Ito ay sapagkat namatay nakayo at ang buhay ninyo ay natatagong kasama ni Cristo sa Diyos. Kapag si Cristo na ating buhay ay mahahayag, kasama rin naman niya kayong mahahayag sa kaluwalhatian.

Patayin nga ninyo ang inyong mga bahagi na maka-lupa. Ito ay ang pakikiapid, karumihan, pita ng laman, masasamang nasa at kasakiman na siyang pagsamba sa diyos-diyosan. Dahil sa mga bagay na ito, ang poot ng Diyos ay dumarating sa mga anak na masuwayin. Ang mga ito ay inyo rin namang nilakaran noong una nang kayo ay namumuhay pa sa gani­-­­­tong mga bagay. Ngunit ngayon ay hubarin na ninyo ang lahat ng ito: galit, poot, masamang hangarin, pamumusong, malalaswang salita na mula sa inyong bibig. Huwag na kayong magsinungaling sa isa’t isa, yamang hinubad na ninyo nang lubusan ang dating pagkatao kasama ang mga masa­samang gawa nito. 10 Isuot naman ninyo ang bagong pagkatao na binago patungo sa kaalaman ayon sa wangis ng lumalang sa kaniya. 11 Doon ay wala ng pagkakaiba ang mga Griyego o mga Judio, ang mga nasa pagtutuli o wala sa pagtutuli, mga hindi Griyego, mga Scita, mga alipin o malaya. Si Cristo ang lahat at nasa lahat.

12 Kaya nga, bilang mga hinirang ng Diyos, mga banal at minamahal, magsuot kayo ng pusong maawain, ng kabutihan, kapakumbabaan ng pag-iisip, ng kaamuan at pagtitiyaga. 13 Magbatahan kayo sa isa’t isa at magpatawaran kayo sa isa’t isa kapag ang sinuman ay may hinaing sa kaninuman. Kung paanong pinatawad kayo ni Cristo ay gayundin kayo magpa­tawad. 14 Higit sa lahat ng mga bagay na ito, magbihis kayo ng pag-ibig na siyang tali ng kasakdalan.

15 Ang kapayapaan ng Diyos ang siyang maghari sa inyong mga puso. Kayo ay tinawag dito sa isang katawan at maging mapagpasalamat kayo. 16 Manahang sagana sa inyo ang salita ni Cristo sa lahat ng karunungan. Turuan at payuhan ninyo ang bawat isa sa pamamagitan ng mga salmo, ng mga himno at mga awiting espirituwal. Umawit kayong may biyaya sa inyong puso sa Panginoon. 17 Anuman ang inyong gawin sa salita o sa gawa, gawin ninyo ang lahat sa pangalan ng Panginoong Jesus na may pagpapasalamat sa Diyos Ama sa pamamagitan niya.

Tuntunin Para sa Sambahayang Kristiyano

18 Mga asawang babae, magpasakop kayo sa inyong asawa gaya ng nararapat sa Panginoon.

19 Mga asawang lalaki, ibigin ninyo ang inyong asawa at huwag kayong maging marahas sa kanila.

20 Mga anak, sundin ninyo ang inyong mga magulang sa lahat ng bagay sapagkat nakalulugod ito sa Diyos.

21 Mga ama, huwag ninyong ibunsod sa galit ang inyong mga anak upang huwag manghina ang kanilang loob.

22 Mga alipin, sundin ninyo sa lahat ng bagay ang inyong mga amo dito sa lupa, hindi lamang kung sila ay nakatingin bilang pakitang-tao, kundi sa katapatan ng puso na may takot sa Diyos. 23 Anuman ang inyong gawin, gawin ninyo ito ng buong puso na para sa Panginoon at hindi para sa mga tao. 24 Yamang nalalaman ninyo na kayo ay tatanggap mula sa Panginoon ng gantimpalang mana dahil ang Panginoon, ang Cristo ang inyong pinaglilingkuran. 25 Ang sinumang guma­gawa ng masama ay tatanggap ng kabayaran sa kaniyang ginawangkasamaan. Ang Diyos ay walang mga taong itinatangi.
