Colossians 3:9-11

Contemporary English Version

^9 (A) And stop lying to each other. You have given up your old way of life with its habits.

^10 (B) Each of you is now a new person. You are becoming more and more like your Creator, and you will understand him better. ¹¹ It doesn't matter if you are a Greek or a Jew, or if you are circumcised or not. You may even be a barbarian or a Scythian,^[a] and you may be a slave or a free person. Yet Christ is all that matters, and he lives in all of us.
