But speaking the truth in love, let us grow in every way into Him who is the head— Christ.

惟用爱心说诚实话，凡事长进，连于元首基督。

我们反而要用爱心说诚实话，各方面向着基督长进，连于元首基督，

我们反而要用爱心说诚实话，各方面向着基督长进，连于元首基督，

相反，我们说话要凭爱心坚持真理，在各方面都要追求长进，更像元首基督。

却要在爱中过诚实的生活，在各方面长进，达到基督的身量。他是教会的头，

我们却要在爱中说真话，在一切事上向着他长进；他就是头，是基督。

惟用愛心說誠實話，凡事長進，連於元首基督，

我們反而要用愛心說誠實話，各方面向着基督長進，連於元首基督，

我們反而要用愛心說誠實話，各方面向着基督長進，連於元首基督，

相反，我們說話要憑愛心堅持真理，在各方面都要追求長進，更像元首基督。

卻要在愛中過誠實的生活，在各方面長進，達到基督的身量。他是教會的頭，

但我們總要以愛心持守真理，各方面長大、直到長成了基督：基督就是元首。

我們卻要在愛中說真話，在一切事上向著他長進；他就是頭，是基督。

惟居愛崇真、萬事漸長於彼、彼乃元首、即基督也、

基督為教會首、爾居仁而言實、萬事託之生長、

當以愛心言真實、凡事日漸增長、及於為元首者、即基督也、

務須篤守真諦、涵養愛德、日漸月漬、暢茂條達、庶克仰配為吾人元首之基督。

Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.

Instead, we will speak the truth in love. So we will grow up in every way to become the body of Christ. Christ is the head of the body.

Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,

Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church.

But speaking the truth in love, let us grow in every way into him who is the head— Christ.

but speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, that is, Christ,

but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head— Christ—

but speaking truth in love, may grow up in all things into him, who is the head, even Christ;

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head,[ even] Christ:

But practicing the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Christ, who is the head.

but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him who is the head, Christ,

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

Little children, we must not love with word or speech, but with truth and action.

Since you put away lying, Speak the truth, each one to his neighbor, because we are members of one another.

And He put everything under His feet and appointed Him as head over everything for the church,

These are the things you must do: Speak truth to one another; make true and sound decisions within your gates.

The whole building, being put together by Him, grows into a holy sanctuary in the Lord.

Like newborn infants, desire the pure spiritual milk, so that you may grow by it for your salvation,

Instead, we have renounced shameful secret things, not walking in deceit or distorting God’s message, but commending ourselves to every person’s conscience in God’s sight by an open display of the truth.

He is also the head of the body, the church; He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He might come to have first place in everything.For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him,

for the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of the body.

But for you who fear My name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings, and you will go out and playfully jump like calves from the stall.

How joyful is the man the Lord does not charge with sin and in whose spirit is no deceit!

Then Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him and said about him,“ Here is a true Israelite; no deceit is in him.”

By obedience to the truth, having purified yourselves for sincere love of the brothers, love one another earnestly from a pure heart,

I am not saying this as a command. Rather, by means of the diligence of others, I am testing the genuineness of your love.

If a brother or sister is without clothes and lacks daily foodand one of you says to them,“ Go in peace, keep warm, and eat well,” but you don’t give them what the body needs, what good is it?

“ How can you say,‘ I love you,’” she told him,“ when your heart is not with me? This is the third time you have mocked me and not told me what makes your strength so great!”

Love must be without hypocrisy. Detest evil; cling to what is good.

I will be like the dew to Israel; he will blossom like the lily and take root like the cedars of Lebanon.His new branches will spread, and his splendor will be like the olive tree, his fragrance, like the forest of Lebanon.The people will return and live beneath his shade. They will grow grain and blossom like the vine. His renown will be like the wine of Lebanon.
