δὲ
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: γίνεσθε εἰς ἀλλήλους χρηστοί εὔσπλαγχνοι χαριζόμενοι ἑαυτοῖς καθὼς καὶ ὁ Θεὸς ἐν Χριστῷ ἐχαρίσατο ὑμῖν)
The connecting word Instead introduces a contrast relationship. Speaking angry and hurtful things is in contrast to speaking kind and tender things to one another.
εὔσπλαγχνοι
tender-hearted
Alternate translation: “gentle and compassionate towards others”
