²⁹ Let no ^[a](A)unwholesome word come out of your mouth, but if there is any good word for ^(B)edification ^[b]according to the need of the moment, say that, so that it will give grace to those who hear.

³ But ^(A)sexual immorality ^[a]or any impurity or greed must not even be mentioned among you, as is proper among ^[b]saints; ⁴ and there must be no ^(B)filthiness ^[c]or foolish talk, or vulgar joking, which ^(C)are not fitting, but rather ^(D)giving of thanks. ⁵ For this you know with certainty, that ^(E)no sexually immoral or ^[d]impure or greedy person, which ^[e]amounts to an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom ^(F)of Christ and God.

^5 (A)Therefore, ^[a]treat ^(B)the parts of your earthly body as dead to ^(C)sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which ^[b]amounts to idolatry. ⁶ For it is because of these things that ^(D)the wrath of God is coming ^[c]upon the ^[d]sons of disobedience, ⁷ and ^(E)in them you also once walked, when you were living ^[e]in them. ⁸ But now you also, ^(F)rid yourselves of all of them: ^(G)anger, wrath, malice, slander, and ^(H)obscene speech from your mouth.
