Colossians 3:5-8

Put On the New Self

5 i Therefore put to death j your members which are on the earth: k fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, l which is idolatry. 6 m Because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon n the sons of disobedience, 7 o in which you yourselves once walked when you lived in them. 8 p But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth.
