Ephesians 5:2-4
Living Bible
2 Be full of love for others, following the example of Christ who loved you and gave himself to God as a sacrifice to take away your sins. And God was pleased, for Christ’s love for you was like sweet perfume to him.
3 Let there be no sex sin, impurity or greed among you. Let no one be able to accuse you of any such things. 4 Dirty stories, foul talk, and coarse jokes—these are not for you. Instead, remind each other of God’s goodness, and be thankful.

Ephesians 5:2-4
New International Version
2 and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us(A) and gave himself up for us(B) as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.(C)
3 But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality,(D) or of any kind of impurity, or of greed,(E) because these are improper for God’s holy people. 4 Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk(F) or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving.(G)
