Christ, therefore, having suffered in flesh, do ye also arm yourselves with the same mind; because he who suffered in flesh has ceased from sin;

in brotherly love being tenderly affectionate one to another; in honor, preferring one another;

submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ;

doing nothing through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind, each esteeming others better than himself;

Be clothed

whose adorning, let it not be the outward one of braiding of hair and of wearing of golden ornaments, or of putting on apparel;

but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill its desires.

Put on, therefore, as God's elect, holy and beloved, tender affections of compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, long-suffering;

God

But He giveth more grace Wherefore, the Scripture says, "God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble."
