ISV(i)
2 They are not to insult anyone or be argumentative. Instead, they are to be gentle and perfectly courteous to everyone.
3 After all, we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, and misled. We were slaves to many kinds of lusts and pleasures, spending our days in malice and jealousy. We were despised, and we hated one another.
4 In grace our Savior God appeared, to make his love for mankind clear.
5 ‘Twas not for deeds that we had done, but by his steadfast love alone, he saved us through a second birth, renewed us by the Spirit’s work,
6 and poured him out upon us, too, through Jesus the Messiah our Savior true.
