drb@Ephesians:5:1 @Be ye therefore followers of God, as most dear children;

drb@Ephesians:5:2 @And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath delivered himself for us, an oblation and a sacrifice to God for an odour of sweetness.

drb@Ephesians:5:3 @But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not so much as be named among you, as becometh saints:

drb@Ephesians:5:4 @Or obscenity, or foolish talking, or scurrility, which is to no purpose; but rather giving of thanks.

drb@Ephesians:5:5 @For know you this and understand, that no fornicator, or unclean, or covetous person (which is a serving of idols), hath inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

drb@Ephesians:5:6 @Let no man deceive you with vain words. For because of these things cometh the anger of God upon the children of unbelief.

drb@Ephesians:5:7 @Be ye not therefore partakers with them.

drb@Ephesians:5:8 @For you were heretofore darkness, but now light in the Lord. Walk then as children of the light.

drb@Ephesians:5:9 @For the fruit of the light is in all goodness, and justice, and truth;

drb@Ephesians:5:10 @Proving what is well pleasing to God:

drb@Ephesians:5:11 @And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

drb@Ephesians:5:12 @For the things that are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of

drb@Ephesians:5:13 @But all things that are reproved, are made manifest by the light; for all that is made manifest is light.

drb@Ephesians:5:14 @Wherefore he saith: Rise thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead: and Christ shall enlighten thee.

drb@Ephesians:5:15 @See therefore, brethren, how you walk circumspectly: not as unwise,

drb@Ephesians:5:16 @But as wise: redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

drb@Ephesians:5:17 @Wherefore become not unwise, but understanding what is the will of God.

drb@Ephesians:5:18 @And be not drunk with wine, wherein is luxury; but be ye filled with the holy Spirit,

drb@Ephesians:5:19 @Speaking to yourselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord;

drb@Ephesians:5:20 @Giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father:

drb@Ephesians:5:21 @Being subject one to another, in the fear of Christ.

drb@Ephesians:5:22 @Let women be subject to their husbands, as to the Lord:

drb@Ephesians:5:23 @Because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church. He is the saviour of his body.

drb@Ephesians:5:24 @Therefore as the church is subject to Christ, so also let the wives be to their husbands in all things.

drb@Ephesians:5:25 @Husbands, love your wives, as Christ also loved the church, and delivered himself up for it:

drb@Ephesians:5:26 @That he might sanctify it, cleansing it by the laver of water in the word of life:

drb@Ephesians: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.

drb@Ephesians:5:28 @So also ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife, loveth himself.

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

drb@Ephesians:5:30 @Because we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

drb@Ephesians:5:31 @For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they shall be two in one flesh.

drb@Ephesians:5:32 @This is a great sacrament; but I speak in Christ and in the church.

drb@Ephesians:5:33 @Nevertheless let every one of you in particular love his wife as himself: and let the wife fear her husband.
