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.
9. Do not lie to one another. Strip yourselves of the old man, with his deeds,
10. and clothe yourself with the new man, who has been renewed by knowledge, in accord with the image of the One who created him,
11. where there is neither Gentile nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian nor Scythian, servant nor free. Instead, Christ is everything, in everyone.
12. Therefore, clothe yourselves like the elect of God: holy and beloved, with hearts of mercy, kindness, humility, modesty, and patience.
13. Support one another, and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive one another. For just as the Lord has forgiven you, so also must you do.
14. And above all these things have charity, which is the bond of perfection.
15. And let the peace of Christ lift up your hearts. For in this peace, you have been called, as one body. And be thankful.
16. Let the word of Christ live in you in abundance, with all wisdom, teaching and correcting one another, with psalms, hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing to God with the grace in your hearts.
17. Let everything whatsoever that you do, whether in word or in deed, be done all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
