For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Jesus, the Christ, for the sake of you Gentiles--

This, then, as one in union with the Lord, I say to you and urge upon you: Do not continue to live such purposeless lives as the Gentiles live,

Never let any foul word pass your lips, but only such good words as the occasion demands, that they may be a help to those who hear them.

Therefore have nothing to do with such people.

All such actions, when exposed, have their true character made manifest by the Light.

Do not drink wine to excess, for that leads to profligacy; but seek to be filled with the Spirit of God, and speak to one another in psalms and hymns and sacred songs.
