Colossians 3:5–10

6because of which things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience,

7in which you also once walked when you were living in them.

8But now you also put away all these things: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, obscene talk from your mouth.

…

11where there is no Greek or Jew, circumcision or uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave, free, but the Messiah is all and in all.

12So put on, as chosen ones of God, holy and beloved, compassionate affection, kindness, humility, gentleness, patience,
