5 (A)Therefore, [a]treat (B)the parts of your earthly body as dead to (C)sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which [b]amounts to idolatry. 6 For it is because of these things that (D)the wrath of God is coming [c]upon the [d]sons of disobedience, 7 and (E)in them you also once walked, when you were living [e]in them. 8 But now you also, (F)rid yourselves of all of them: (G)anger, wrath, malice, slander, and (H)obscene speech from your mouth. 9 [f](I)Do not lie to one another, since you (J)stripped off the old [g]self with its evil practices, 10 and have (K)put on the new self, which is being [h](L)renewed to a true knowledge (M)according to the image of the One who (N)created it—
