"to set aside your earlier behavior, the former man, who was corrupted, by means of desire, unto error, "
— Ephesians 4:22, Catholic Public Domain Version
“That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;”
“that ye put away, as concerning your former manner of life, the old man, that waxeth corrupt after the lusts of deceit; ”
“that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man, that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit;”
“You were taught with reference to your former way of life to lay aside the old man who is being corrupted in accordance with deceitful desires,”
“To put off, according to former conversation, the old man, who is corrupted according to the desire of error.”
“That you are to put away, in relation to your earlier way of life, the old man, which has become evil by love of deceit;”
“That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;”
Such as these, despairing, have given themselves over to sexual immorality, carrying out every impurity with rapacity.
But this is not what you have learned in Christ.
For certainly, you have listened to him, and you have been instructed in him, according to the truth that is in Jesus:
to set aside your earlier behavior, the former man, who was corrupted, by means of desire, unto error,
and so be renewed in the spirit of your mind,
and so put on the new man, who, in accord with God, is created in justice and in the holiness of truth.
Because of this, setting aside lying, speak the truth, each one with his neighbor. For we are all part of one another.
