Colossians 3:19

άγαπάτε praes. imper. act. от άγαπάω (G25) любить (TDNT; TLNT; EDNT). Praes. imper. призывает к постоянному отношению и положительному опыту,
πι кραίνεσθε praes. imper. pass. от πικραίνω (G4087) делать горьким, горчить, огорчать. Гл. передает идею строгого отношения, грубости. Это разногласия, вызванные нетерпимостью, бездумные ссоры. Если любви нет, нельзя добиться повиновения с помощью постоянного раздражения и придирок (TDNT; Moule; Eadie). Praes. imper. с Отр..
μή (G3361) запрещает привычное действие.
