God's Word Translation

Colossians 3:13-18 God's Word Translation (GW)

13. Put up with each other, and forgive each other if anyone has a complaint. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

14. Above all, be loving. This ties everything together perfectly.

15. Also, let Christ’s peace control you. God has called you into this peace by bringing you into one body. Be thankful.

16. Let Christ’s word with all its wisdom and richness live in you. Use psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to teach and instruct yourselves about ⌊God’s⌋ kindness. Sing to God in your hearts.

17. Everything you say or do should be done in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

18. Wives, place yourselves under your husbands’ authority. This is appropriate behavior for the Lord’s people.
