Colossians 3:2-8 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

2. Consider the things that are above, not the things that are upon the earth.

3. For you have died, and so your life is hidden with Christ in God.

4. When Christ, your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

5. Therefore, mortify your body, while it is upon the earth. For because of fornication, impurity, lust, evil desires, and avarice, which are a kind of service to idols,

6. the wrath of God has overwhelmed the sons of unbelief.

7. You, too, walked in these things, in times past, when you were living among them.

8. But now you must set aside all these things: anger, indignation, malice, blasphemy, and indecent speech from your mouth.
