8 Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for ^athe one who loves another has fulfilled the law. 9 For the commandments, ^b“You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: ^c“You shall ^dlove your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the ^efulfilling of the law.

11 Besides this you know the time, that the hour has come for you to ^fwake from sleep. For ^gsalvation is ^hnearer to us now than when we first believed. 12 ⁱThe night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the ^jworks of darkness and ^kput on the armor of light. 13 ^lLet us walk properly as in the daytime, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and sensuality, not in quarreling and jealousy. 14 But ^mput on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its ⁿdesires.
