16 Therefore, we do not give up, but even if the man we are outside is wasting away, certainly the man we are inside is being renewed from day to day.

16 I pray that he may grant you through the abundance of his glory to be made mighty in the man you are inside,+ with power through his spirit,

23 And you should continue to be made new in your dominant mental attitude,*+ 24 and should put on the new personality+ that was created according to God’s will in true righteousness and loyalty.
