Colossians 3:5-11
Christian Standard Bible

5 Therefore, put to death what belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity,(A) lust,(B) evil desire, and greed,(C) which is idolatry.(D) 6 Because of these, God’s wrath(E) is coming upon the disobedient,[a] 7 and you once walked in these things when you were living(F) in them. 8 But now, put away(G) all the following: anger,(H) wrath,(I) malice,(J) slander,(K) and filthy language from your mouth.(L) 9 Do not lie(M) to one another, since you have put off(N) the old self(O) with its practices 10 and have put on(P) the new self. You are being renewed in knowledge according to the image of your[b] Creator.(Q) 11 In Christ there is not Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave and free; but Christ is all and in all.(R)

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

5 Put to death, therefore, whatever in you is earthly: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed (which is idolatry).(A) 6 On account of these the wrath of God is coming on those who are disobedient.[a](B) 7 These are the ways you also once followed, when you were living that life.[b] 8 But now you must get rid of all such things: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and abusive[c] language from your mouth.(C) 9 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have stripped off the old self with its practices 10 and have clothed yourselves with the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge according to the image of its creator.(D) 11 In that renewal[d] there is no longer Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, enslaved and free, but Christ is all and in all!(E)
