12 So,
as those
who have been chosen of God,
holy
and beloved,
put on
a heart of compassion,
kindness,
humility,
gentleness and
patience;
13 bearing with one another, and
forgiving each other,
whoever has a complaint against anyone;
just as the Lord forgave you,
so also should you.
14 Beyond all these things
put on
love,
which is the perfect bond of unity.
15 Let the peace of Christ
rule in your hearts,
to which indeed you were called in one body; and
be thankful.
16 Let the word of Christ
richly dwell within you,
with all wisdom
teaching and
admonishing one another
with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,
singing
with thankfulness in your hearts to God.
17 Whatever you do
in word or deed,
do all in the name of the Lord Jesus,
giving thanks
through Him
to God the Father.
– Colossians 3:12-17 NASB
