^3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. ^3:2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. ^3:3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. ^3:4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. ^3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: ^3:6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: ^3:7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them. ^3:8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. ^3:9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; ^3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: ^3:11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. ^3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; ^3:13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. ^3:14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. ^3:15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. ^3:16 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. ^3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
