Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children; and walk in love, as Christ also loved you, and gave himself for you an offering and a sacrifice to God, of a sweet odor. But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints, read more.
neither obscenity, nor foolish talking, nor indecent jesting, which are not becoming; but rather giving of thanks.
