Ephesians chapter 5

Bible Version
Book
Chapter
1
Be you thereforeG3767 followersG3402 of God,G2316 as dearG27 children;G5043
2
And walkG4043 in love,G26 as ChristG5547 alsoG2532 has lovedG26 us, and has givenG3860 himselfG1438 for us an offeringG4376 and a sacrificeG2378 to GodG2316 for a sweet smellingG2175 smell.G3744
3
But fornication,G4202 and allG3956 uncleanness,G167 orG2228 covetousness,G4124 let it not be onceG3366 namedG3687 amongG1722 you, as becomesG4241 saints;G40
4
NeitherG2532 G3756 filthiness,G151 norG2532 foolishG3473 talking,G3473 norG2228 jesting,G2160 whichG3588 are not convenient:G433 but ratherG3123 giving of thanks.G2169
5
For thisG5124 you know,G1097 that noG3956 G3756 fornicator,G4205 norG2228 uncleanG169 person, norG2228 covetousG4123 man, whoG3739 is an idolater,G1496 hasG2192 any inheritanceG2817 in the kingdomG932 of ChristG5547 and of God.G2316
6
Let noG3367 manG3367 deceiveG538 you with vainG2756 words:G3056 for becauseG1223 of theseG5023 things comesG2064 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 on the childrenG5207 of disobedience.G543
7
Be not you thereforeG3767 partakersG4830 with them.
8
For you were sometimesG4218 darkness,G4655 but nowG3568 are you lightG5457 in the Lord:G2962 walkG4043 as childrenG5043 of light:G5457
9
(For the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG4151 is in allG3956 goodnessG19 and righteousnessG1343 and truth;G226)
10
ProvingG1381 whatG5101 is acceptableG2101 to the Lord.G2962
11
And have noG3361 fellowshipG4790 with the unfruitfulG175 worksG2041 of darkness,G4655 but ratherG3123 reproveG1651 them.
12
For it is a shameG149 evenG2532 to speakG3004 of thoseG3588 things which are doneG1096 of them in secret.G2931
13
But allG3956 things that are reprovedG1651 are madeG5319 manifestG5319 by the light:G5457 for whateverG3956 does makeG5319 manifestG5319 is light.G5457
14
WhyG1352 he said,G3004 AwakeG1453 you that sleep,G2518 and ariseG450 from the dead,G3498 and ChristG5547 shall give you light.G2017
15
SeeG991 thenG3767 that you walkG4043 circumspectly,G199 not as fools,G781 but as wise,G4680
16
RedeemingG1805 the time,G2540 becauseG3754 the daysG2250 are evil.G4190
17
WhyG1223 G5124 be you not unwise,G878 but understandingG4920 whatG5101 the willG2307 of the LordG2962 is.
18
And be not drunkG3182 with wine,G3631 whereinG1722 G3757 is excess;G810 but be filledG4137 with the Spirit;G4151
19
SpeakingG2980 to yourselvesG1438 in psalmsG5568 and hymnsG5215 and spiritualG4152 songs,G5603 singingG103 and makingG5567 melodyG5567 in yourG5216 heartG2588 to the Lord;G2962
20
Giving thanksG2168 alwaysG3842 for allG3956 things to GodG2316 and the FatherG3962 in the nameG3686 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 Christ;G5547
21
SubmittingG5293 yourselves oneG240 to anotherG240 in the fearG5401 of God.G2316
22
Wives,G1135 submitG5293 yourselves to yourG3588 ownG2398 husbands,G435 as to the Lord.G2962
23
For the husbandG435 is the headG2776 of the wife,G1135 evenG2532 as ChristG5547 is the headG2776 of the church:G1577 and he is the saviorG4990 of the body.G4983
24
ThereforeG235 as the churchG1577 is subjectG5293 to Christ,G5547 soG3779 let the wivesG1135 be to their ownG2398 husbandsG435 in everyG3956 thing.
25
Husbands,G435 loveG25 yourG1438 wives,G1135 evenG2531 as ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 the church,G1577 and gaveG3860 himselfG1438 for it;
26
That he might sanctifyG37 and cleanseG2511 it with the washingG3067 of waterG5204 by the word,G4487
27
That he might presentG3936 it to himselfG1438 a gloriousG1741 church,G1577 not havingG2192 spot,G4696 orG2228 wrinkle,G4512 orG2228 anyG5100 suchG5108 thing; but that it should be holyG40 and withoutG299 blemish.G299
28
SoG3779 oughtG3784 menG435 to loveG25 their wivesG1135 as their ownG1438 bodies.G4983 He that lovesG25 his wifeG1135 lovesG25 himself.G1438
29
For noG3762 manG3762 everG4218 yet hatedG3404 his ownG1438 flesh;G4561 but nourishesG1625 and cherishesG2282 it, evenG2532 as the LordG2962 the church:G1577
30
For we are membersG3196 of his body,G4983 of his flesh,G4561 and of his bones.G3747
31
For thisG5127 causeG473 shall a manG444 leaveG2641 his fatherG3962 and mother,G3384 and shall be joinedG4347 to his wife,G1135 and they twoG1417 shall be oneG3391 flesh.G4561
32
ThisG5124 is a greatG3173 mystery:G3466 but I speakG3004 concerningG1519 ChristG5547 and the church.G1577
33
NeverthelessG4133 let everyG2596 G1520 one of you in particularG3588 soG3779 loveG25 his wifeG1135 evenG5613 as himself;G1438 and the wifeG1135 see that she reverenceG5399 her husband.G435
