The Message Bible MSG
New International Version NIV
8 But you know better now, so make sure it's all gone for good: bad temper, irritability, meanness, profanity, dirty talk.
8
But now you must also rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips.
9 Don't lie to one another. You're done with that old life. It's like a filthy set of ill-fitting clothes you've stripped off and put in the fire.
9
Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices
10 Now you're dressed in a new wardrobe. Every item of your new way of life is custom-made by the Creator, with his label on it. All the old fashions are now obsolete.
10
and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.
