12 Put on, therefore, as choice ones of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humble-mindedness, meekness, long-suffering,13 forbearing one another, and forgiving each other, if any one with any one may have a quarrel, as also the Christ did forgive you -- so also you;14 and above all these things, have love, which is a bond of the perfection,15 and let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body, and become thankful.
