Ephesians 4:25-32
25Therefore, putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor. For we are members one of another.
26"Be angry, and don`t sin." Don`t let the sun go down on your wrath,
27neither give place to the devil.
28Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing that is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need.
29Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear.
30Don`t grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed to the day of redemption.
31Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice.
32Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.
