Do not let any bad word come out of your mouths,
but (let) whatever (comes our of your mouths) be good
for building up of what is needed
so that it would give grace
to those who hear –
And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God,
by whom you were sealed
until that day of redemption.
Set aside
from you
every bitterness
and rage
and anger
and shouting
and cursing
with all evil
but be kind to one another
compassionate
forgiving one another,
just as God in Christ
has forgiven you.
Lord God,,
you feed us with the living bread from heaven;
you renew our faith,
increase our hope,
and strengthen our love.
Teach us to hunger
for Christ who is the true and living bread,
and to live by every word
that comes from your mouth,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
