1 Therefore of Christ having suffered in flesh for us, arm ye yourselves also with the same mentality, because he who has suffered in flesh has ceased from sin,

2 in order to live the remaining time in flesh, no longer by lusts of men, but by the will of God.

3 For enough time of life has past for you to accomplish the will of the Gentiles, having gone in debaucheries, lusts, excesses of wine, revelings, drinking parties, and lawless idolatries.

4 During which they think it strange of you not running together into the same pouring out of debauchery, while they slander.

5 Men who will give back an accounting to him who fares readily to judge the living and the dead.
