Ephesians 5




asv@Ephesians:5:1 @Be ye therefore imitators of God, as beloved children;

asv@Ephesians:5:2 @and walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of a sweet smell.

asv@Ephesians:5:3 @But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints;

asv@Ephesians:5:4 @nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, or jesting, which are not befitting: but rather giving of thanks.

asv@Ephesians:5:5 @For this ye know of a surety, that no fornicator, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

asv@Ephesians:5:6 @Let no man deceive you with empty words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience.

asv@Ephesians:5:7 @Be not ye therefore partakers with them;

asv@Ephesians:5:8 @For ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord: walk as children of light

asv@Ephesians:5:9 @(for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth),

asv@Ephesians:5:10 @proving what is well-pleasing unto the Lord;

asv@Ephesians:5:11 @and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them;

asv@Ephesians:5:12 @for the things which are done by them in secret it is a shame even to speak of.

asv@Ephesians:5:13 @But all things when they are reproved are made manifest by the light: for everything that is made manifest is light.

asv@Ephesians:5:14 @Wherefore he saith, Awake, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall shine upon thee.

asv@Ephesians:5:15 @Look therefore carefully how ye walk, not as unwise, but as wise;

asv@Ephesians:5:16 @redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

asv@Ephesians:5:17 @Wherefore be ye not foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

asv@Ephesians:5:18 @And be not drunken with wine, wherein is riot, but be filled with the Spirit;

asv@Ephesians:5:19 @speaking one to another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord;

asv@Ephesians:5:20 @giving thanks always for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;

asv@Ephesians:5:21 @subjecting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ.

asv@Ephesians:5:22 @Wives, be in subjection unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

asv@Ephesians:5:23 @For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is the head of the church, being himself the saviour of the body.

asv@Ephesians:5:24 @But as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their husbands in everything.

asv@Ephesians:5:25 @Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it;

asv@Ephesians:5:26 @that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word,

asv@Ephesians:5:27 @that he might present the church to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

asv@Ephesians:5:28 @Even so ought husbands also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his own wife loveth himself:

asv@Ephesians:5:29 @for no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as Christ also the church;

asv@Ephesians:5:30 @because we are members of his body.

asv@Ephesians:5:31 @For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh.

asv@Ephesians:5:32 @This mystery is great: but I speak in regard of Christ and of the church.

asv@Ephesians:5:33 @Nevertheless do ye also severally love each one his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she fear her husband.
