Ephesians 4:25-5:7

21st Century King James Version

²⁵ Therefore, putting away lying, let every man speak truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another.

²⁶ Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down on your wrath,

²⁷ neither give place to the devil.

²⁸ Let him that stole steal no more, but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

²⁹ Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to use in edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

³⁰ And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

³¹ Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice;

³² and be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.

5 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;

² and walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given Himself for us as an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savor.

³ But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let them not once be named among you, as becometh saints;

⁴ neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not befitting, but rather giving of thanks.

⁵ For this ye know: that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and of God.

⁶ Let no man deceive you with vain words, for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

⁷ Be ye not therefore partakers with them.
