^{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 should abstain from fornication:

^{4 Ref} That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;

^{5 Ref} Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:

^{6 Ref} That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.

^{7 Ref} For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.

^{8 Ref} He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.
