^{3 Ref} for this is the will of God -- your sanctification; that ye abstain from the whoredom,

^{4 Ref} that each of you know his own vessel to possess in sanctification and honour,

^{5 Ref} not in the affection of desire, as also the nations that were not knowing God,

^{6 Ref} that no one go beyond and defraud in the matter his brother, because an avenger `is' the Lord of all these, as also we spake before to you and testified,

^{7 Ref} for God did not call us on uncleanness, but in sanctification;

^{8 Ref} he, therefore, who is despising -- doth not despise man, but God, who also did give His Holy Spirit to us.

^{3 Ref} For the purpose of God for you is this: that you may be holy, and may keep yourselves from the desires of the flesh;

^{4 Ref} So that every one of you may keep his body holy and in honour;

^{5 Ref} Not in the passion of evil desires, like the Gentiles, who have no knowledge of God;

^{6 Ref} And that no man may make attempts to get the better of his brother in business: for the Lord is the judge in all these things, as we said to you before and gave witness.

^{7 Ref} Because it is God's purpose that our way of life may be not unclean but holy.

^{8 Ref} Whoever, then, goes against this word, goes against not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

^{3 Ref} For this is the will of God, `even' your sanctification, that ye abstain from fornication;

^{4 Ref} that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own vessel in sanctification and honor,

^{5 Ref} not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who know not God;

^{6 Ref} that no man transgress, and wrong his brother in the matter: because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.

^{7 Ref} For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.

^{8 Ref} Therefore he that rejecteth, rejecteth not man, but God, who giveth his Holy Spirit unto you.
