Colossians 3:4-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
4When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.
5Therefore, treat the parts of your earthly body as dead to sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which amounts to idolatry.
6For it is because of these things that the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience,
7and in them you also once walked, when you were living in them.
8But now you also, rid yourselves of all of them: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene speech from your mouth.
9Do not lie to one another, since you stripped off the old self with its evil practices,
King James Version
5Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
8But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
9Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
Christian Standard Bible
5Therefore, put to death what belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desire, and greed, which is idolatry.
6Because of these, God’s wrath is coming upon the disobedient,
7and you once walked in these things when you were living in them.
8But now, put away all the following: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and filthy language from your mouth.
9Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old self with its practices
New Living Translation
Chapter 3
4And when Christ, who is your life, is revealed to the whole world, you will share in all his glory.
5So put to death the sinful, earthly things lurking within you. Have nothing to do with sexual immorality, impurity, lust, and evil desires. Don’t be greedy, for a greedy person is an idolater, worshiping the things of this world.
6Because of these sins, the anger of God is coming.
7You used to do these things when your life was still part of this world.
8But now is the time to get rid of anger, rage, malicious behavior, slander, and dirty language.
9Don’t lie to each other, for you have stripped off your old sinful nature and all its wicked deeds.
