    6For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:

    16Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.

    17Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

    18And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

    19To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

    20Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.

    13Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem:

    16For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name’s sake.

    17And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.

    18And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

    22That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;

    23And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

    24And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

    25Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

    26Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

    27Neither give place to the devil.

    28Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

    29Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

    30And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

    31Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

    32And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.

  13. Philemon 1:9–16Rank 13 from verse 6
    Open

    9Yet for love’s sake I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.

    10I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:

    11Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:

    12Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:

    13Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:

    14But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.

    15For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;

    16Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?
