Ephesians 4:22-28
English Standard Version
22 to (A)put off (B)your old self,[a] which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through (C)deceitful desires, 23 and (D)to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to put on (E)the new self, (F)created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
25 Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you (G)speak the truth with his neighbor, for (H)we are members one of another. 26 (I)Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and (J)give no opportunity to the devil. 28 Let the thief no longer steal, but rather (K)let him labor, (L)doing honest work with his own hands, so (M)that he may have something to share with anyone in need.

Ephesians 4:22-28
New International Version
22 You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off(A) your old self,(B) which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires;(C) 23 to be made new in the attitude of your minds;(D) 24 and to put on(E) the new self,(F) created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.(G)
25 Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully(H) to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body.(I) 26 “In your anger do not sin”[a]:(J) Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, 27 and do not give the devil a foothold.(K) 28 Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work,(L) doing something useful with their own hands,(M) that they may have something to share with those in need.(N)

Ephesians 4:22-28
King James Version
22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
27 Neither give place to the devil.
28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
