Colossians 3:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 Now therefore as the elect of God, holy and beloved, [a]put on the [b]bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering:
13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel to another: even as Christ forgave, even so do ye.
14 And above all these things put on love, which is the [c]bond of perfectness.
