1 Be ye therefore imitators of God, as dear children
2 and walk in charity even as the Christ also has loved us and has given himself for us as an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour.
3 But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not be once named among you as becomes saints,
4 neither dishonest words nor foolishness nor low jesting, which are not convenient, but rather giving of thanks.
5 For this ye know, that no fornicator nor unclean person nor covetous man, who is also an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6 Let no one deceive you with vain words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
7 Be not ye, therefore, partakers with them.
