5 (A)Therefore (a)consider (B)the members of your earthly body as dead to (b)(C)immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which (c)amounts to idolatry. 6 For it is because of these things that (D)the wrath of God will come (d)upon the sons of disobedience, 7 and (E)in them you also once walked, when you were living (e)in them.
