(Col 3:1) If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
(Col 3:2) Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
(Col 3:3) For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
(Col 3:4) When Christ, {who is} our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
(Col 3:5) Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
(Col 3:6) For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
(Col 3:7) In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
(Col 3:8) But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
(Col 3:9) Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
(Col 3:10) And have put on the new {man}, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
(Col 3:11) Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond {nor} free: but Christ {is} all, and in all.
(Col 3:12) Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
(Col 3:13) Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also {do} ye.
(Col 3:14) And above all these things {put on} charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
(Col 3:15) And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
(Col 3:16) Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
(Col 3:17) And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, {do} all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
(Col 3:18) Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
(Col 3:19) Husbands, love {your} wives, and be not bitter against them.
(Col 3:20) Children, obey {your} parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
(Col 3:21) Fathers, provoke not your children {to anger}, lest they be discouraged.
(Col 3:22) Servants, obey in all things {your} masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:
(Col 3:23) And whatsoever ye do, do {it} heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
(Col 3:24) Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
(Col 3:25) But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
