Ephesians 4:28-30
Worldwide English (New Testament)
28 The person who used to steal must not steal now. But he must do some good work with his own hands. Then he will have something to give to the poor people.
29 Do not let any bad words come out of your mouth. But say good things that will help people. Then those who hear you will also be blessed by what you say.
30 Do nothing that makes the Holy Spirit feel sad. He is the mark God has put on you until the day you will belong to God altogether.
