Ephesians 4:28-30
New American Standard Bible
28 The one who steals must no longer steal; but rather (A)he must labor, (B)producing with his own hands what is good, (C)so that he will have something to share with the one who has need. 29 Let no [a](D)unwholesome word come out of your mouth, but if there is any good word for (E)edification [b]according to the need of the moment, say that, so that it will give grace to those who hear. 30 (F)Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, [c]by whom you were (G)sealed for the day of redemption.
