Ephesians:4




jub@Ephesians:4:1 @ I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation with which ye are called,

jub@Ephesians:4:2 @ with all humility and meekness, with tolerance, forbearing one another in love,

jub@Ephesians:4:3 @ being diligent to guard the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

jub@Ephesians:4:4 @ [There is] one body and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling,

jub@Ephesians:4:5 @ one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

jub@Ephesians:4:6 @ one God and Father of all, who [is] above all and through all, and in you all.

jub@Ephesians:4:7 @ But unto each one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of the Christ.

jub@Ephesians:4:8 @ Therefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive and gave gifts unto men.

jub@Ephesians:4:9 @ (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

jub@Ephesians:4:10 @ He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all the heavens, that he might fulfill all things.)

jub@Ephesians:4:11 @ And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers,

jub@Ephesians:4:12 @ for the perfecting of the saints in the work of the ministry, unto [the] edifying of the body of the Christ

jub@Ephesians:4:13 @ until we all come forth in [the] unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the coming of age of the Christ:

jub@Ephesians:4:14 @ That we no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men [and] cunning craftiness, by which they lie in wait to deceive,

jub@Ephesians:4:15 @ but following the truth in charity, let us grow up into him in all things, who is the head, the Christ:

jub@Ephesians:4:16 @ From whom the whole body fitly joined together and [well] tied together among itself by the nourishment that every [connecting] bond supplies, by the operation of each member according to measure they have received, making increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in charity.

jub@Ephesians:4:17 @ This I say, therefore, and require in the Lord that from now on ye not walk as the other Gentiles walk in the vanity of their [own] senses,

jub@Ephesians:4:18 @ having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them because of the blindness of their heart,

jub@Ephesians:4:19 @ who, after losing all sense [of feeling] have given themselves over unto lasciviousness to work all uncleanness with greediness.

jub@Ephesians:4:20 @ But ye have not so learned of the Christ,

jub@Ephesians:4:21 @ if so be that ye have heard him and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus,

jub@Ephesians:4:22 @ that ye put off [everything] concerning the old way of life, [that is], the old man who corrupts himself according to deceitful desires,

jub@Ephesians:4:23 @ and be renewed in the spirit of your understanding

jub@Ephesians:4:24 @ and that ye put on the new man, which is created in conformity to God in righteousness and in the holiness of the truth.

jub@Ephesians:4:25 @ Therefore, leaving the lie, speak every man truth with his neighbour, for we are members one of another.

jub@Ephesians:4:26 @ Be ye angry and sin not; let not the sun go down upon your wrath,

jub@Ephesians:4:27 @ neither give place to the devil.

jub@Ephesians:4:28 @ Let him that stole steal no more, but rather let him labour, working with [his] hands that which is good, that he may have to give to him that is in need.

jub@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good for edification, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

jub@Ephesians:4:30 @ And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God with which ye are sealed for the day of redemption.

jub@Ephesians:4:31 @ Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamour and evil speaking be taken away from you, with all malice,

jub@Ephesians:4:32 @ and be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another even as God has forgiven you in Christ.:
