If angry, beware of sinning. Let not your irritation last until the sun goes down;

Let no unwholesome words ever pass your lips, but let all your words be good for benefiting others according to the need of the moment, so that they may be a means of blessing to the hearers.

Let all bitterness and all passionate feeling, all anger and loud insulting language, be unknown among you--and also every kind of malice.

But fornication and every kind of impurity, or covetousness, let them not even be mentioned among you, for they ought not to be named among God's people.

Let no one deceive you with empty words, for it is on account of these very sins that God's anger is coming upon the disobedient.

Therefore be very careful how you live and act. Let it not be as unwise men, but as wise.

Always and for everything let your thanks to God the Father be presented in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Yet I insist that among you also, each man is to love his own wife as much as he loves himself, and let a married woman see to it that she treats her husband with respect.

Let it not be in acts of eye-service as if you had but to please men, but as Christ's bondservants who are doing God's will from the heart.
