1If, therefore, ye have been raised together with the Christ, the things on high, be seeking, where, the Christ, is—on the right hand of God, sitting; 2The things on high, hold in esteem, not the things upon the earth: 3For ye have died, and, your life, is hid, together with the Christ, in God,— 4As soon as, the Christ, shall be made manifest—our life, then, ye also, together with him, shall be made manifest in glory; 5 Make dead, therefore, your members that are on the earth—as regardeth fornication, impurity, passion, base coveting, and greed, the which, is idolatry,— 6On account of which things cometh the anger of God,— 7Wherein, ye also, walked, at one time, when ye were living in these things; 8 But, now, do, ye also, put them all away,—anger, wrath, baseness, defamation, shameful talk out of your mouth: 9Be not guilty of falsehood one to another: having stript off the old man, together with his practices, 10And having put on the new—who is being moulded afresh unto personal knowledge, after the image of him that hath created him,— 11Wherein there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, foreigner, Scythian, bond, free,—but, all things and in all, Christ: 12 Put on, therefore, as men chosen of God, holy and beloved, tender affections of compassion, graciousness, lowliness of mind, meekness, long-suffering, 13Bearing one with another, and in favour forgiving one another—if any, against any, have a complaint,—according as, the Lord, in favour forgave you, so also ye; 14And, over all these things, love, which is a uniting-bond of completeness; 15And let, the peace of Christ, act as umpire in your hearts, unto which ye have been called in *[*one*]* body, and be thankful: 16Let, the word of the Christ, dwell within you richly,—in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another, with psalms, hymns, spiritual songs, with gratitude, raising song with your hearts unto God: 17And whatsoever ye may be doing, in word, or in work, all things, [do] in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks unto the Divine Father through him:— 18 Ye wives! be submitting yourselves unto your husbands, as is becoming in the Lord; 19Ye husbands! be loving your wives, and be not embittered against them; 20Ye children! be obedient unto your parents in all things, for, this, is, well pleasing, in the Lord; 21Ye fathers! be not irritating your children, lest they be disheartened; 22Ye servants! be obedient, in all things, unto them who, according to the flesh, are your masters,—not with eye-service, as man-pleasers, but with singleness of heart, revering the Lord,— 23Whatsoever ye may be doing, from the soul, be working at it, as unto the Lord, and not unto men,- 24Knowing that, from the Lord, ye shall duly receive the recompense of the inheritance,—unto the Lord Christ, are ye in service; 25For, he that acteth unrighteously, shall get back what he had unrighteously done, and there is no respect of persons;
