| Colossians 3:2 | Mind the things that are above, not the things that are upon the earth. | Keep your mind on the higher things, not on the things of earth. | Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth. |

| Colossians 3:5 | Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, lust, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is the service of idols. | Then put to death your bodies which are of the earth; wrong use of the flesh, unclean things, passion, evil desires and envy, which is the worship of strange gods; | Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry; |

| Colossians 3:7 | In which you also walked some time, when you lived in them. | Among whom you were living in the past, when you did such things. | You also once walked in those, when you lived in these things; |
| Colossians 3:8 | But now put you also all away: anger, indignation, malice, blasphemy, filthy speech out of your mouth. | But now it is right for you to put away all these things; wrath, passion, bad feeling, curses, unclean talk; | but now you also put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth. |
| Colossians 3:9 | Lie not one to another: stripping yourselves of the old man with his deeds, | Do not make false statements to one another; because you have put away the old man with all his doings, | Don't lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings, |
| Colossians 3:10 | And putting on the new, him who is renewed unto knowledge, according to the image of him that created him. | And have put on the new man, which has become new in knowledge after the image of his maker; | and have put on the new man, that is being renewed in knowledge after the image of his Creator, |
| Colossians 3:11 | Where there is neither Gentile nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian nor Scythian, bond nor free. But Christ is all, and in all. | Where there is no Greek or Jew, no one with circumcision or without circumcision, no division between nations, no servant or free man: but Christ is all and in all. | where there can't be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondservant, freeman; but Christ is all, and in all. |
| Colossians 3:12 | Put ye on therefore, as the elect of God, holy, and beloved, the bowels of mercy, benignity, humility, modesty, patience: | As saints of God, then, holy and dearly loved, let your behaviour be marked by pity and mercy, kind feeling, a low opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, and a power of undergoing all things; | Put on therefore, as God's elect, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance; |
| Colossians 3:13 | Bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if any have a complaint against another: even as the Lord hath forgiven you, so do you also. | Being gentle to one another and having forgiveness for one another, if anyone has done wrong to his brother, even as the Lord had forgiveness for you: | bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as the Lord forgave you, so also do. |
| Colossians 3:14 | But above all these things have charity, which is the bond of perfection: | And more than all, have love; the only way in which you may be completely joined together. | Above all these things, walk in love, which is the bond of perfection. |
| Colossians 3:15 | And let the peace of Christ rejoice in your hearts, wherein also you are called in one body: and be ye thankful. | And let the peace of Christ be ruling in your hearts, as it was the purpose of God for you to be one body; and give praise to God at all times. | Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body. Be thankful. |
| Colossians 3:16 | Let the word of Christ dwell in you abundantly, in all wisdom: teaching and admonishing one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing in grace in your hearts to God. | Let the word of Christ be in you in all wealth of wisdom; teaching and helping one another with songs of praise and holy words, making melody to God with grace in your hearts. | Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to God. |

| Colossians 3:23 | Whatsoever you do, do it from the heart, as to the Lord, and not to men: | Whatever you do, do it readily, as to the Lord and not to men; | Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, |
| Colossians 3:24 | Knowing that you shall receive of the Lord the reward of inheritance. Serve ye the Lord Christ. | Being certain that the Lord will give you the reward of the heritage: for you are the servants of the Lord Christ. | knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord, Christ. |
