3 For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality, 4 that each one of you know how to control his own body in sanctification and honor, 5 not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who don’t know God,

3 Ko ta te Atua hoki tenei e pai ai, ara ko to koutou whakatapunga, kia mawehe koutou i te moepuku.

4 Kia matau koutou katoa ki tona tinana, ki tona tinana, kia mau i runga i te tapu, i te honore.

5 Kaua i runga i te toronga o te hiahia, kei rite ki nga tauiwi kahore nei e matau ki te Atua.
