¹⁷ This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,

²² That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;

⁸ For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

⁷ In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.

³⁰ For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:

¹¹ And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
