- With all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love.
- Making every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
- There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling.
- But speaking the truth in love, we must grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ.
- Be angry but do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and do not make room for the devil.
- Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only what is useful for building up, as there is need, so that your words may give grace to those who hear.
- And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with which you were marked with a seal for the day of redemption.
- And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you.
Words spoken by the wise bring them favor,
but the lips of fools consume them. Do not adorn yourselves outwardly by braiding your hair, and by wearing gold ornaments or fine clothing; rather, let your adornment be the inner self with the lasting beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in God's sight.Next verse!With image
