— 1 Thessalonians 4:3, Catholic Public Domain Version
“For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:”
“For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye abstain from fornication; ”
“For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,”
“For this is God’s will: that you become holy, that you keep away from sexual immorality,”
“For this is the will of God, your sanctification: That you should abstain from fornication:”
“For the purpose of God for you is this: that you may be holy, and may keep yourselves from the desires of the flesh;”
“For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:”
Therefore, concerning other things, brothers, we ask and beg you, in the Lord Jesus, that, just as you have received from us the way in which you ought to walk and to please God, so also may you walk, in order that you may abound all the more.
For you know what precepts I have given to you through the Lord Jesus.
For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from fornication,
that each one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor,
not in passions of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God,
and that no one should overwhelm or circumvent his brother in business. For the Lord is the vindicator of all these things, just as we have preached and testified to you.
