Ephesians 5
|
- 5:1
Be
ye
therefore
followers of
God,
as
dear
children;
|
- 5:2
And
walk
in
love,
as
Christ
also hath
loved
us,
and hath
given
himself
for
us an
offering
and a
sacrifice to
God
for a
sweetsmelling
savour.
|
- 5:3
But
fornication,
and
all
uncleanness,
or
covetousness, let
it not be
once
named
among
you,
as
becometh
saints;
|
- 5:4
Neither
filthiness,
nor foolish
talking,
nor
jesting,
which
are
not
convenient:
but
rather giving of
thanks.
|
- 5:5
For
this ye
know
* ,
that
no
*
whoremonger,
nor unclean
person,
nor covetous
man,
who
is an
idolater,
hath any
inheritance
in the
kingdom of
Christ
and of
God.
|
- 5:6
Let no
man
deceive
you with
vain
words:
for
because of these
things
cometh the
wrath of
God
upon the
children of
disobedience.
|
- 5:7
Be
not
ye
therefore
partakers with
them.
|
- 5:8
For ye
were
sometimes
darkness,
but
now are ye
light
in the
Lord:
walk
as
children of
light:
|
- 5:9
(For the
fruit of the
Spirit is
in
all
goodness
and
righteousness
and
truth;)
|
- 5:10
Proving
what
is
acceptable unto the
Lord.
|
- 5:11
And
have
no
fellowship with the
unfruitful
works of
darkness,
but
rather
*
reprove them.
|
- 5:12
For it
is a
shame
even to
speak of those
things which are
done
of
them in
secret.
|
- 5:13
But all
things that are
reproved are made
manifest
by the
light:
for
whatsoever doth make
manifest
is
light.
|
- 5:14

saith, Awake
thou that
sleepest,
and
arise
from the
dead,
and
Christ shall
give
thee
light.

See
then
that ye
walk
circumspectly,
not
as
fools,
but
as
wise,
|
- 5:16
Redeeming the
time,
because the
days
are
evil.
|
- 5:17
Wherefore
be
ye
not
unwise,
but
understanding
what the
will of the
Lord is.
|
- 5:18
And
be
not
drunk with
wine,
wherein
*
is
excess;
but be
filled
with the
Spirit;
|
- 5:19
Speaking to
yourselves in
psalms
and
hymns
and
spiritual
songs,
singing
and making
melody
in
your
heart to the
Lord;
|
- 5:20 Giving
thanks
always
for all
things unto
God
and the
Father
in the
name of
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ;
|
- 5:21 Submitting
yourselves one to
another
in the
fear of
God.
|
- 5:22
Wives, submit
yourselves unto your
own
husbands,
as unto the
Lord.
|
- 5:23
For the
husband
is the
head of the
wife,
even
as
Christ is the
head of the
church:
and
he
is the
saviour of the
body.
|
- 5:24
Therefore
as the
church is
subject unto
Christ,
so
let the
wives be to their
own
husbands
in every
thing.
|
- 5:25
Husbands,
love
your
wives, even
as
Christ
also
loved the
church,
and
gave
himself
for
it;
|
- 5:26
That he might
sanctify and cleanse
it with the
washing of
water
by the
word,
|
- 5:27
That he might
present
it to
himself a
glorious
church,
not
having
spot,
or
wrinkle,
or
any such
thing;
but
that it should
be
holy
and without
blemish.
|
- 5:28
So
ought
men to
love
their
wives
as their
own
bodies. He that
loveth
his
wife
loveth
himself.
|
- 5:29
For no
man ever
yet
hated his
own
flesh;
but
nourisheth
and
cherisheth
it, even
as
the
Lord the
church:
|
- 5:30
For we
are
members of
his
body,
of
his
flesh,
and
of
his
bones.
|
- 5:31
For this
cause
shall a
man
leave
his
father
and
mother,
and shall be
joined
unto
his
wife,
and they
two shall
be
one
*
flesh.
|
- 5:32
This
is a
great
mystery:
but
I
speak
concerning
Christ
and
the
church.
|
- 5:33
Nevertheless
*
let every
one
of
you in
particular
so
love
his
wife even
as
himself;
and the
wife see
that she
reverence her
husband.
