¹ Christ, then, having suffered for us in the flesh, ye also with the same mind arm yourselves, because he who did suffer in the flesh hath done with sin,

¹⁸ because also Christ once for sin did suffer -- righteous for unrighteous -- that he might lead us to God, having been put to death indeed, in the flesh, and having been made alive in the spirit,

²⁴ and those who are Christ's, the flesh did crucify with the affections, and the desires;

¹¹ so also ye, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to the sin, and living to God in Jesus Christ our Lord.

¹³ because of this take ye up the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to resist in the day of the evil, and all things having done -- to stand.

¹² the night did advance, and the day came nigh; let us lay aside, therefore, the works of the darkness, and let us put on the armour of the light;

¹³ as in day-time, let us walk becomingly; not in revellings and drunkennesses, not in chamberings and lasciviousnesses, not in strife and emulation;

¹⁴ but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and for the flesh take no forethought -- for desires.

⁷ for he who hath died hath been set free from the sin.

² let it not be! we who died to the sin -- how shall we still live in it?

¹⁶ Wash ye, make ye pure, Turn aside the evil of your doings, from before Mine eyes, Cease to do evil, learn to do good.

³ for consider again him who endured such gainsaying from the sinners to himself, that ye may not be wearied in your souls -- being faint.

¹⁰ for he who did enter into his rest, he also rested from his works, as God from His own.

³ for ye did die, and your life hath been hid with the Christ in God;

⁴ when the Christ -- our life -- may be manifested, then also we with him shall be manifested in glory.

⁵ Put to death, then, your members that `are' upon the earth -- whoredom, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and the covetousness, which is idolatry --

⁵ For, let this mind be in you that `is' also in Christ Jesus,

²⁰ with Christ I have been crucified, and live no more do I, and Christ doth live in me; and that which I now live in the flesh -- in the faith I live of the Son of God, who did love me and did give himself for me;

⁴¹ And burnt thy houses with fire, And done in thee judgments before the eyes of many women, And I have caused thee to cease from going a-whoring, And also a gift thou givest no more.
