Ephesians 5




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

dby@Ephesians:5:2 @ and walk in love, even as the Christ loved us, and delivered himself up for us, an offering and sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savour.

dby@Ephesians:5:3 @ But fornication and all uncleanness or unbridled lust, let it not be even named among you, as it becomes saints;

dby@Ephesians:5:4 @ and filthiness and foolish talking, or jesting, which are not convenient; but rather thanksgiving.

dby@Ephesians:5:5 @ For this ye are [well] informed of, knowing that no fornicator, or unclean person, or person of unbridled lust, who is an idolater, has inheritance in the kingdom of the Christ and God.

dby@Ephesians:5:6 @ Let no one deceive you with vain words, for on account of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

dby@Ephesians:5:7 @ Be not ye therefore fellow-partakers with them;

dby@Ephesians:5:8 @ for ye were once darkness, but now light in [the] Lord; walk as children of light,

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

dby@Ephesians:5:10 @ proving what is agreeable to the Lord;

dby@Ephesians:5:11 @ and do not have fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather also reprove [them],

dby@Ephesians:5:12 @ for the things that are done by them in secret it is shameful even to say.

dby@Ephesians:5:13 @ But all things having their true character exposed by the light are made manifest; for that which makes everything manifest is light.

dby@Ephesians:5:14 @ Wherefore he says, Wake up, [thou] that sleepest, and arise up from among the dead, and the Christ shall shine upon thee.

dby@Ephesians:5:15 @ See therefore how ye walk carefully, not as unwise but as wise,

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

dby@Ephesians:5:17 @ For this reason be not foolish, but understanding what [is] the will of the Lord.

dby@Ephesians:5:18 @ And be not drunk with wine, in which is debauchery; but be filled with the Spirit,

dby@Ephesians:5:19 @ speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and chanting with your heart to the Lord;

dby@Ephesians:5:20 @ giving thanks at all times for all things to him [who is] God and [the] Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

dby@Ephesians:5:21 @ submitting yourselves to one another in [the] fear of Christ.

dby@Ephesians:5:22 @ Wives, [submit yourselves] to your own husbands, as to the Lord,

dby@Ephesians:5:23 @ for a husband is head of the wife, as also the Christ [is] head of the assembly. He [is] Saviour of the body.

dby@Ephesians:5:24 @ But even as the assembly is subjected to the Christ, so also wives to their own husbands in everything.

dby@Ephesians:5:25 @ Husbands, love your own wives, even as the Christ also loved the assembly, and has delivered himself up for it,

dby@Ephesians:5:26 @ in order that he might sanctify it, purifying [it] by the washing of water by [the] word,

dby@Ephesians:5:27 @ that he might present the assembly to himself glorious, having no spot, or wrinkle, or any of such things; but that it might be holy and blameless.

dby@Ephesians:5:28 @ So ought men also to love their own wives as their own bodies: he that loves his own wife loves himself.

dby@Ephesians:5:29 @ For no one has ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as also the Christ the assembly:

dby@Ephesians:5:30 @ for we are members of his body; [we are of his flesh, and of his bones.]

dby@Ephesians:5:31 @ Because of this a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be united to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh.

dby@Ephesians:5:32 @ This mystery is great, but I speak as to Christ, and as to the assembly.

dby@Ephesians:5:33 @ But ye also, every one of you, let each so love his own wife as himself; but as to the wife [I speak] that she may fear the husband.
