[1] If you then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sits on the right hand of God.
[1] ---
[2] Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
[2] ---
[3] For you are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
[3] ---
[4] When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall you also appear with him in glory.
[4] ---
[5] Mortify therefore your members which are on the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
[5] ---
[6] For which things’ sake the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience:
[6] ---
[7] In the which you also walked some time, when you lived in them.
[7] ---
[8] But now you also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
[8] ---
[9] Lie not one to another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his deeds;
[9] ---
[10] And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
[10] ---
[11] Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
[11] ---
[12] Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, long-suffering;
[12] ---
[13] Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do you.
[13] ---
[14] And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfection.
[14] ---
[15] And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also you are called in one body; and be you thankful.
[15] ---
[16] Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
[16] ---
[17] And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
[17] ---
[18] Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
[18] ---
[19] Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
[19] ---
[20] Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing to the Lord.
[20] ---
[21] Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
[21] ---
[22] Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eye-service, as men pleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God;
[22] ---
[23] And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not to men;
[23] ---
[24] Knowing that of the Lord you shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for you serve the Lord Christ.
[24] ---
[25] But he that does wrong shall receive for the wrong which he has done: and there is no respect of persons.
