Ephesians 4:22

“The heart is more deceitful than all else And is desperately sick; Who can know it?

knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin;

Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit.

Therefore this I say, and testify in the Lord, that you walk no longer just as the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind,

Therefore, laying aside falsehood, speak truth each one of you with his neighbor, for we are members of one another.

Let all bitterness and anger and wrath and shouting and slander be put away from you, along with all malice.

But now you also, lay them all aside: wrath, anger, malice, slander, and abusive speech from your mouth.

Do not lie to one another, since you put off the old man with its evil practices,

But encourage one another day after day, as long as it is still called “Today,” so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, laying aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,

Therefore, laying aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in gentleness receive the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

Therefore, laying aside all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander,

For the time already past is sufficient for you to have worked out the desire of the Gentiles, having pursued a course of sensuality, lusts, drunkenness, carousing, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries.
