Ephesians 5

1Be ye^G1096 therefore^G3767 imitators^G3402 of God^G2316, as^G5613 beloved^G27 children^G5043; 2and^G2532 walk^G4043 in^G1722 love^G26, even as^G2531 Christ^G5547 also^G2532 loved^G25 you^G2248, and^G2532 gave^G3860 himself^G1438 up for^G5228 us^G2257, an offering^G4376 and^G2532 a sacrifice^G2378 to God^G2316 for^G1519 an odor^G3744 of a sweet smell^G3744. 3But^G1161 fornication^G4202, and^G2532 all^G3956 uncleanness^G167, or^G2228 covetousness^G4124, let it^G3687 not even^G3366 be named^G3687 among^G1722 you^G5213, as^G2531 becometh^G4241 saints^G40; 4nor^G2532 filthiness^G151, nor^G2532 foolish talking^G3473, or^G2228 jesting^G2160, which^G3588 are^G433 not^G3756 befitting^G433: but^G235 rather^G3123 giving of thanks^G2169. 5For^G1063 this^G5124 ye know^G1097 of a surety^G2075, that^G3754 no^G3956 fornicator^G4205, nor^G2228 unclean person^G169, nor^G2228 covetous man^G4123, who^G3739 is^G2076 an idolater^G1496, hath^G2192 any^G3756 inheritance^G2817 in^G1722 the kingdom^G932 of Christ^G5547 and^G2532 God^G2316. 6Let^G538 no man^G3367 deceive^G538 you^G5209 with^G1223 empty^G2756 words^G3056: for because of^G1063 these things^G5023 cometh^G2064 the wrath^G3709 of God^G2316 upon^G1909 the sons^G5207 of disobedience^G543. 7Be^G1096 not^G3361 ye^G1096 therefore^G3767 partakers^G4830 with them^G846; 8For^G1063 ye were^G2258 once^G4218 darkness^G4655, but^G1161 are now^G3568 light^G5457 in^G1722 the Lord^G2962: walk^G4043 as^G5613 children^G5043 of light^G5457 9(for^G1063 the fruit^G2590 of the light^G4151 is in^G1722 all^G3956 goodness^G19 and^G2532 righteousness^G1343 and^G2532 truth^G225), 10proving^G1381 what^G5101 is^G2076 well-pleasing^G2101 unto the Lord^G2962; 11and^G2532 have^G4790 no^G3361 fellowship^G4790 with the unfruitful^G175 works^G2041 of darkness^G4655, but^G1161 rather^G3123 even^G2532 reprove^G1651 them; 12for^G1063 the things which^G3588 are done^G1096 by them^G846 in secret^G2931 it is^G2076 a shame^G150 even^G2532 to speak^G3004 of^G5259. 13But^G1161 all things^G3956 when^G3588 they are reproved^G1651 are made manifest^G5319 by^G5259 the light^G5457: for^G1063 everything^G3956 that is made manifest^G5319 is^G2076 light^G5457. 14Wherefore^G1352 he saith^G3004, Awake, thou^G1453 that^G3588 sleepest^G2518, and^G2532 arise^G450 from^G1537 the dead^G3498, and^G2532 Christ^G5547 shall shine^G2017 upon^G2017 thee^G4671. 15Look^G991 therefore^G3767 carefully^G199 how^G4459 ye walk^G4043, not^G3361 as^G5613 unwise^G781, but^G235 as^G5613 wise^G4680; 16redeeming^G1805 the time^G2540, because^G3754 the days^G2250 are^G1526 evil^G4190. 17Wherefore^G5124 be ye^G1096 not^G3361 foolish^G878, but^G235 understand^G4920 what^G5101 the will^G2307 of the Lord^G2962 is. 18And^G2532 be^G3182 not^G3361 drunken^G3182 with^G1722 wine^G3631, wherein^G3739 is^G2076 riot^G810, but^G235 be filled^G4137 with^G1722 the Spirit^G4151; 19speaking^G2980 one to another^G1438 in psalms^G5568 and^G2532 hymns^G5215 and^G2532 spiritual^G4152 songs^G5603, singing^G103 and^G2532 making melody^G5567 with^G1722 your^G5216 heart^G2588 to the Lord^G2962; 20giving thanks^G2168 always^G3842 for^G5228 all things^G3956 in^G1722 the name^G3686 of our^G2257 Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 to God^G2316, even^G2532 the Father^G3962; 21subjecting^G5293 yourselves one to another^G240 in^G1722 the fear^G5401 of Christ^G2316. 22Wives^G1135, be in subjection unto^G5293 your own^G2398 husbands^G435, as^G5613 unto the Lord^G2962. 23For^G3754 the husband^G435 is^G2076 the head^G2776 of the wife^G1135, as^G5613 Christ also^G2532 is^G5547 the head^G2776 of the church^G1577, being^G2532 himself^G846 the^G2076 saviour^G4990 of the body^G4983. 24But^G235 as^G5618 the church^G1577 is subject to^G5293 Christ^G2532, so^G3779 let the wives^G1135 also be to their^G2398 husbands^G435 in^G1722 everything^G3956. 25Husbands^G435, love^G25 your^G1438 wives^G1135, even as^G2531 Christ^G5547 also^G2532 loved^G25 the church^G1577, and^G2532 gave^G3860 himself^G1438 up for^G5228 it^G846; 26that^G2443 he^G846 might sanctify^G37 it, having cleansed it^G2511 by the washing^G3067 of water^G5204 with^G1722 the word^G4487, 27that^G2443 he might present^G3936 the church^G846 to himself^G1438 a glorious^G1741 church^G1577, not^G3361 having^G2192 spot^G4696 or^G2228 wrinkle^G4512 or^G2228 any^G5100 such thing^G5108; but^G235 that^G2443 it should be^G5600 holy^G40 and^G2532 without blemish^G299. 28Even so^G3779 ought^G3784 husbands^G435 also to love^G25 their^G1438 own wives^G1135 as^G5613 their own^G1438 bodies^G4983. He that^G3588 loveth^G25 his^G1438 own wife^G1135 loveth^G25 himself^G1438: 29for^G1063 no man^G3762 ever^G4218 hated^G3404 his own^G1438 flesh^G4561; but^G235 nourisheth^G1625 and^G2532 cherisheth^G2282 it^G846, even^G2532 as^G2531 Christ^G2962 also the church^G1577; 30because^G3754 we are^G2070 members^G3196 of his^G846 body^G4983. 31For^G473 this cause^G5127 shall^G2641 a man^G444 leave^G2641 his^G846 father^G3962 and^G2532 mother^G3384, and^G2532 shall cleave^G4347 to^G4314 his^G846 wife^G1135; and^G2532 the two^G1417 shall^G2071 become^G1519 one^G1520 flesh^G4561. 32This^G5124 mystery^G3466 is^G2076 great^G3173: but^G1161 I^G1473 speak^G3004 in regard^G1519 of Christ^G5547 and^G2532 of^G1519 the church^G1577. 33Nevertheless^G4133 do^G25 ye also^G2532 severally^G1538 love^G25 each one^G1520 his^G1438 own wife^G1135 even as^G5613 himself^G1438; and^G1161 let the wife^G1135 see that^G2443 she fear^G5399 her husband^G435.
