Ephesians 4:29 Made Simple

KJV ORIGINAL

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

Close to the original. Clear modern English.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

Don't let toxic words come out of your mouth. Instead, speak things that actually build people up and bring them something good — words that leave others feeling blessed, not broken.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Your words either build people up or tear them down — choose wisely.
