²⁶ Be angry but do not sin;^[a] do not let the sun go down on your anger, ²⁷ and do not make room for the devil.

²⁹ Let no evil talk come out of your mouths but only what is good for building up,^[a] as there is need, so that your words may give grace to those who hear. ³⁰ And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with which you were marked with a seal for the day of redemption.^{(A) 31} Put away from you all bitterness and wrath and anger and wrangling and slander, together with all malice.^{(B) 32} Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you.^[b](C)
