⁹ Do not lie to one another, for you have stripped off the old (unregenerate) self with its evil practices,

¹⁰ And have clothed yourselves with the new [spiritual self], which is [ever in the process of being] renewed and remolded into [fuller and more perfect ^[a]knowledge upon] knowledge after the image (the likeness) of Him Who created it.^(A)

¹¹ [In this new creation all distinctions vanish.] There ^[b]is no room for and there can be neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised, [nor difference between nations whether alien] barbarians or Scythians [^[c]who are the most savage of all], nor slave or free man; but Christ is all and in all [^[d]everything and everywhere, to all men, without distinction of person].
