1 Therefore, since you⁺ have been raised with Christ (the Anointed One), strive for the things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God {Theou}. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you⁺ died, and your⁺ life is now hidden with Christ (the Anointed One) in God {Theō}. 4 When Christ (the Anointed One), who is your⁺ [our] life, appears, then you⁺ also will appear with Him in glory {doxē}. 5 Put to death, therefore, the components of your earthly nature: sexual immorality {porneian}, impurity (uncleanness), lust, evil desires, and greed, which is idolatry. 6 Because of these, the wrath of God {Theou} is coming on the sons of disobedience. 7 When you⁺ lived among them, you⁺ also used to walk in these ways. 8 But now you⁺ must put aside all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander (blaspheme), and filthy language from your⁺ lips. 9 Do not lie to one another, since you have taken off the old self with its practices, Colossians 3:1-9, Berean Annotated Bible.
