¹ Forasmuch then as Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;

¹⁸ Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God; being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit;

²⁴ Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.

¹¹ Thus also consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

¹³ Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.

¹² The night is far gone, and the day is near. Let's therefore throw off the works of darkness, and let's put on the armor of light.

¹³ Let us walk properly, as in the day; not in reveling and drunkenness, not in sexual promiscuity and lustful acts, and not in strife and jealousy.

¹⁴ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, for its lusts.

⁷ For he who has died has been freed from sin.

² May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?

¹⁶ Wash yourselves, make yourself clean. Put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes; Cease to do evil.

³ For consider him who has endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, that you don't grow weary, fainting in your souls.

¹⁰ For he who has entered into his rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from his.

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

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

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

⁵ Have this in your mind, which was also in Christ Jesus,

²⁰ I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

⁴¹ They shall burn your houses with fire, and execute judgments on you in the sight of many women; and I will cause you to cease from playing the prostitute, and you shall also give no hire any more.
