Put away evil and wrong from your home.

Give up all the evil you have been doing, and get yourselves new minds and hearts. Why do you Israelites want to die?

No more lying, then! Each of you must tell the truth to the other believer, because we are all members together in the body of Christ.

Don't give the Devil a chance.

Do not use harmful words, but only helpful words, the kind that build up and provide what is needed, so that what you say will do good to those who hear you.

Get rid of all bitterness, passion, and anger. No more shouting or insults, no more hateful feelings of any sort.

But now you must get rid of all these things: anger, passion, and hateful feelings. No insults or obscene talk must ever come from your lips.

So get rid of every filthy habit and all wicked conduct. Submit to God and accept the word that he plants in your hearts, which is able to save you.

Do any of you think you are religious? If you do not control your tongue, your religion is worthless and you deceive yourself.

Rid yourselves, then, of all evil; no more lying or hypocrisy or jealousy or insulting language.

Everything I say is true; nothing is false or misleading.

To honor the LORD is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil ways and false words.

Anyone who thinks and speaks evil can expect to find nothing good---only disaster.

and constant arguments from people whose minds do not function and who no longer have the truth. They think that religion is a way to become rich.
