"Instead, acting according to truth in charity, we should increase in everything, in him who is the head, Christ himself. "
— Ephesians 4:15, Catholic Public Domain Version
“But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:”
“but speaking truth in love, may grow up in all things into him, who is the head, even Christ; ”
“but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him, who is the head, Christ;”
“But practicing the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Christ, who is the head.”
“But doing the truth in charity, we may in all things grow up in him who is the head, even Christ:”
“But saying true words in love, may come to full growth in him, who is the head, even Christ;”
“But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:”
for the sake of the perfection of the saints, by the work of the ministry, in the edification of the body of Christ,
until we all meet in the unity of faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, as a perfect man, in the measure of the age of the fullness of Christ.
So may we then no longer be little children, disturbed and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the wickedness of men, and by the craftiness which deceives unto error.
Instead, acting according to truth in charity, we should increase in everything, in him who is the head, Christ himself.
For in him, the whole body is joined closely together, by every underlying joint, through the function allotted to each part, bringing improvement to the body, toward its edification in charity.
And so, I say this, and I testify in the Lord: that from now on you should walk, not as the Gentiles also walk, in the vanity of their mind,
having their intellect obscured, being alienated from the life of God, through the ignorance that is within them, because of the blindness of their hearts.
