Ephesians:4:1 @
Call upon you ,
then ,
do I --
the prisoner of the Lord --
to walk worthily of the calling with which ye were called ,
ylt @
Ephesians:4:2 @
with all lowliness and meekness ,
with long-suffering ,
forbearing one another in love ,
ylt @
Ephesians:4:3 @
being diligent to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of the peace ;
ylt @
Ephesians:4:4 @
one body and one Spirit ,
according as also ye were called in one hope of your calling ;
ylt @
Ephesians:4:5 @
one Lord ,
one faith ,
one baptism ,
ylt @
Ephesians:4:6 @
one God and Father of all ,
who [
is ]
over all ,
and through all ,
and in you all ,
ylt @
Ephesians:4:7 @
and to each one of you was given the grace ,
according to the measure of the gift of Christ ,
ylt @
Ephesians:4:8 @
wherefore ,
he saith , '
Having gone up on high he led captive captivity ,
and gave gifts to men ,' --
ylt @
Ephesians:4:9 @
and that ,
he went up ,
what is it except that he also went down first to the lower parts of the earth ?
ylt @
Ephesians:4:10 @
he who went down is the same also who went up far above all the heavens ,
that He may fill all things --
ylt @
Ephesians:4:11 @
and He gave some [
as ]
apostles ,
and some [
as ]
prophets ,
and some [
as ]
proclaimers of good news ,
and some [
as ]
shepherds and teachers ,
ylt @
Ephesians:4:12 @
unto the perfecting of the saints ,
for a work of ministration ,
for a building up of the body of the Christ ,
ylt @
Ephesians:4:13 @
till we may all come to the unity of the faith and of the recognition of the Son of God ,
to a perfect man ,
to a measure of stature of the fulness of the Christ ,
ylt @
Ephesians:4:14 @
that we may no more be babes ,
tossed and borne about by every wind of the teaching ,
in the sleight of men ,
in craftiness ,
unto the artifice of leading astray ,
ylt @
Ephesians:4:15 @
and ,
being true in love ,
we may increase to Him [
in ]
all things ,
who is the head --
the Christ ;
ylt @
Ephesians:4:16 @
from whom the whole body ,
being fitly joined together and united ,
through the supply of every joint ,
according to the working in the measure of each single part ,
the increase of the body doth make for the building up of itself in love .
