    3:1 If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.

    3:2 Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth.

    3:3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

    3:4 When Christ, our life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.

    3:5 Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry;

    3:6 for which things` sake the wrath of God comes on the sons of disobedience.

    3:7 You also once walked in those, when you lived in these things;

    3:8 but now you also put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.

    3:9 Don`t lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings,

    3:10 and have put on the new man, that is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator,

    3:11 where there can`t be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, freeman; but Christ is all, and in all.

    3:12 Put on therefore, as God`s elect, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance;

    3:13 bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as the Lord forgave you, so also do.

    3:14 Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection.

    3:15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body. Be thankful.

    3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to God.

    3:17 Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God, the Father, through him.

    3:18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

    3:19 Husbands, love your wives, and don`t be bitter against them.

    3:20 Children, obey your parents in all things, for this pleases the Lord.

    3:21 Fathers, don`t provoke your children, so that they won`t be discouraged.

    3:22 Servants, obey in all things those who are your masters according to the flesh, not just when they are looking, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord.

    3:23 Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men,

    3:24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord, Christ.

    3:25 For he who does wrong will receive again for the wrong that he has done, and there is no partiality.
