1 Thessalonians 4:5-8

New International Version

⁵ not in passionate lust^(A) like the pagans,^(B) who do not know God;^{(C) 6} and that in this matter no one should wrong or take advantage of a brother or sister.^[a](D) The Lord will punish^(E) all those who commit such sins,^(F) as we told you and warned you before. ⁷ For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life.^{(G) 8} Therefore, anyone who rejects this instruction does not reject a human being but God, the very God who gives you his Holy Spirit.^(H)
