4 Love is longsuffering, love is kind, is not jealous, love does not boast, is not conceited,5 does not behave unbecomingly, does not seek her own interest, is not irritable, does not count up her wrongs,6 does not rejoice in wickedness, but rejoices with the truth,7 excuses all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

14 Above all these, clothe yourselves with love, which is the perfect bond of union.15 Let the peace of Christ be umpire in your hearts. For this you were called into one body. And be thankful.16 The message of Christ must dwell in you richly, as you teach in all wisdom and admonish one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs and sing with grace in your hearts to God.17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

14 Above all these, clothe yourselves with love, which is the perfect bond of union.

15 Take care that no one repays evil with evil, but always seek eagerly what is good in dealing with one another and with every one.

6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What, therefore, God has yoked together let not man put asunder."

9 What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder."

25 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ also loved the church and gave himself for it,

28 Thus ought men to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself,29 for no one ever hates his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church,

31 "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave to his wife and the two shall become one flesh.

31 Let all bitterness and anger and wrath and clamor and abusive language be put away from you with every kind of malice.32 Be kind to one another, sympathetic, forgiving one another just as God in Christ has forgiven you.

25 Therefore put aside lying and speak truth every one to his neighbor, for we are members one of another.26 "Be angry and do not sin." Do not let the sun go down on your wrath,27 neither give place for the Devil.28 He who steals must steal no longer, but rather he must labor, working with his own hands something good, so as to have something to share with any one in need.29 Let no vile word come out of your mouth, but, if anything, a good word for needed upbuilding of character to give grace to those who hear.30 Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God by whom you have been sealed for the day of redemption.31 Let all bitterness and anger and wrath and clamor and abusive language be put away from you with every kind of malice.32 Be kind to one another, sympathetic, forgiving one another just as God in Christ has forgiven you.

3 doing nothing in a partisan or vainglorious way, but each modestly regarding the others as of more account than himself.4 Do not be each intent on his own interests, but also on the interests of others.

26 You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.27 All who have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.28 There cannot be Jew or Greek, slave or free, male or female: for you all are one in Christ Jesus.

4 Let marriage be held in honor by all and let the bed be undefiled; for unchaste persons and adulterers God will judge.

14 Do not be yoked up, like unmatched animals, with unbelievers. For what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness,

11 Yet neither is woman without man nor man without woman in the Lord.
