< Colossians 3 >

1 If then you have been raised with Christ, the [things] above do seek, where Christ is at [the] right hand of God sitting; 2 The [things] above do set [your] minds on not the [things] on the earth. 3 You have died for and the life of you has been hidden with Christ in God; 4 When Christ may be revealed, the life (of you, *N+KO) then also you yourselves with Him will appear in glory. 5 do put to death therefore the members (of you *K) which [are] upon the earth: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, desire evil and covetousness which is idolatry, 6 because of which things is coming the wrath of God on the sons of disobedience; 7 in which also you yourselves walked once when you were living in (them. *N+kO) 8 Now however do put off also you yourselves all [these] things: anger, rage, malice, slander, foul language out of the mouth of you. 9 Not do lie to one another having put off the old man with the practices of him 10 and having put on the new, which is being renewed in knowledge according to [the] image of the [one who] having created him; 11 where not there is Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, slave, free, but all and in all Christ [is]. 12 do put on therefore, as [the] elect of God holy and beloved, hearts (of compassion, *N+kO) kindness, humility, gentleness, [and] patience; 13 bearing with each other and forgiving each other If anyone against another shall have a complaint; even as also the (Lord *N+KO) has forgiven you, so also you; 14 Beyond all now these [put on] the love, (which *N+kO) is [the] bond of perfect unity. 15 And the peace (from Christ *N+KO) should rule in the hearts of you, to which also you were called in one body; And thankful do be. 16 The word of Christ should dwell in you richly, in all wisdom teaching and admonishing yourselves in psalms, (and *k) in hymns, (and *k) in songs spiritual with grace singing in (the hearts *N+kO) of you (to God; *N+KO) 17 And everything (which what *NK+o) (maybe *N+kO) you shall do in word or in deed, all in [the] name of [the] Lord Jesus giving thanks to God (and *k) [the] Father through Him. 18 you who [are] wives, do be submitted (to [your] own *K) husbands as was fitting in [the] Lord. 19 you who [are] Husbands, do love the wives and not do be harsh toward them. 20 you who [are] Children, do obey the parents in all things; this for pleasing is (in *N+kO) Lord. 21 you who [are] Fathers, not do provoke the children of you, that not they may become discouraged. 22 you who [are] Slaves, do obey in all things the according to flesh masters, not with (eye-service *N+kO) as men-pleasers but in sincerity of heart fearing the (Lord. *N+KO) 23 (and *k) (everything *K) that (any [of] *K) maybe you shall do, from [the] soul do work as to the Lord and not to men; 24 knowing that from [the] Lord (you will receive *NK+o) the reward of the inheritance; The (for *k) Lord Christ you serve. 25 The [one] (for *N+kO) doing wrong he will be repaid [for] what he has done wrong and not there is partiality.
