Ephesians 4:27-29

J.B. Phillips New Testament

^26-27 If you are angry, be sure that it is not out of wounded pride or bad temper. Never go to bed angry—don’t give the devil that sort of foothold.

The new life means positive good

²⁸ If you used to be a thief you must not only give up stealing, but you must learn to make an honest living, so that you may be able to give to those in need.

²⁹ Let there be no more foul language, but good words instead—words suitable for the occasion, which God can use to help other people.
