nasb@Ephesians:5:1 @Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children;

nasb@Ephesians:5:2 @and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma.

nasb@Ephesians:5:3 @But immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints;

nasb@Ephesians:5:4 @and there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.

nasb@Ephesians:5:5 @For this you know with certainty, that no immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

nasb@Ephesians:5:6 @Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

nasb@Ephesians:5:7 @Therefore do not be partakers with them;

nasb@Ephesians:5:8 @for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light

nasb@Ephesians:5:9 @(for the fruit of the Light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth),

nasb@Ephesians:5:10 @trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.

nasb@Ephesians:5:11 @Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them;

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

nasb@Ephesians:5:13 @But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.

nasb@Ephesians:5:14 @For this reason it says, " Awake, sleeper, And arise from the dead, And Christ will shine on you."

nasb@Ephesians:5:15 @Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,

nasb@Ephesians:5:16 @making the most of your time, because the days are evil.

nasb@Ephesians:5:17 @So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

nasb@Ephesians:5:18 @And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,

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

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

nasb@Ephesians:5:21 @and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ.

nasb@Ephesians:5:22 @Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.

nasb@Ephesians:5:23 @For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body.

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

nasb@Ephesians:5:25 @Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her,

nasb@Ephesians:5:26 @so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,

nasb@Ephesians:5:27 @that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless.

nasb@Ephesians:5:28 @So husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself;

nasb@Ephesians:5:29 @for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church,

nasb@Ephesians:5:30 @because we are members of His body.

nasb@Ephesians:5:31 @FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND SHALL BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH.

nasb@Ephesians:5:32 @This mystery is great; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church.

nasb@Ephesians:5:33 @Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband.
