Ephesians   1



 1. Paul <3972>, an apostle <0652> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> 
by the will <2307> of God <2316>, to the saints <0040> which 
<3588> are at <1722> Ephesus <2181>, and to the faithful <4103> 
in Christ <5547> Jesus <2424>:



 2  Grace <5485> [be] to you, and peace <1515>, from God <2316> 
our Father <3962>, and [from] the Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> 
Christ <5547>.



 3. Blessed <2128> [be] the God <2316> and Father <3962> of our 
Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, who <3588> hath blessed 
<2127> us with all <3956> spiritual <4152> blessings <2129> in 
heavenly <2032> [places] in Christ <5547>:



 4  According <2531> as he hath chosen <1586> us in him before 
<4253> the foundation <2602> of the world <2889>, that we should 
be holy <0040> and without <0299> blame <0299> before <2714> him 
in love <0026>:



 5  Having predestinated <4309> us unto the adoption <5206> of 
children <5206> by Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> to himself <0848>, 
according <2596> to the good pleasure <2107> of his will <2307>,



 6  To the praise <1868> of the glory <1391> of his grace <5485>,
 wherein <3757> he hath made <5487> us accepted <5487> in the 
beloved <0025>.



 7  In whom <3739> we have <2192> redemption <0629> through 
<1223> his blood <0129>, the forgiveness <0859> of sins <3900>, 
according <2596> to the riches <4149> of his grace <5485>;



 8  Wherein <3757> he hath abounded <4052> toward <1519> us in 
all <3956> wisdom <4678> and prudence <5428>;



 9  Having made <1107> known <1107> unto us the mystery <3466> 
of his will <2307>, according <2596> to his good pleasure <2107> 
which <3739> he hath purposed <4388> in himself <0848>:



 10  That in the dispensation <3622> of the fulness <4138> of 
times <2540> he might gather <0346> together <0346> in one all 
<3956> things in Christ <5547>, both <5037> which <3588> are in 
heaven <3772>, and which <3588> are on <1909> earth <1093>; 
[even] in him:



 11  In whom <3739> also <2532> we have obtained <2820> an 
inheritance <2820>, being predestinated <4309> according <2596> 
to the purpose <4286> of him who worketh <1754> all <3956> 
things after <2596> the counsel <1012> of his own <0848> will 
<2307>:



 12  That we should be to the praise <1868> of his glory <1391>, 
who <3588> first <4276> trusted <4276> in Christ <5547>.



 13  In whom <3739> ye also <2532> [trusted], after that ye 
heard <0191> the word <4487> of truth <0225>, the gospel <2098> 
of your <5216> salvation <4991>: in whom <3739> also <2532> 
after that ye believed <4100>, ye were sealed <4972> with that 
holy <0040> Spirit <4151> of promise <1860>,



 14  Which <3739> is the earnest <0728> of our inheritance 
<2817> until <1519> the redemption <0629> of the purchased 
<4047> possession <4047>, unto the praise <1868> of his glory 
<1391>.



 15. Wherefore <5124> I also <2504>, after I heard <0191> of 
your <5209> faith <4102> in the Lord <2962> Jesus <2424>, and 
love <0026> unto all <3956> the saints <0040>,



 16  Cease <3973> not to give thanks <2168> for you, making 
<4160> mention <3417> of you in my prayers <4335>;



 17  That the God <2316> of our Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ 
<5547>, the Father <3962> of glory <1391>, may give <1325> unto 
you the spirit <4151> of wisdom <4678> and revelation <0602> in 
the knowledge <1922> of him:



 18  The eyes <3788> of your <5216> understanding <1271> being 
enlightened <5461>; that ye may know <1492> what <5101> is the 
hope <1680> of his calling <2821>, and what <5101> the riches 
<4149> of the glory <1391> of his inheritance <2817> in the 
saints <0040>,



 19  And what <5101> [is] the exceeding <5235> greatness <3174> 
of his power <1411> to us-ward <2248> who <3588> believe <4100>, 
according <2596> to the working <1753> of his mighty <2479> 
power <2904>,



 20  Which <3739> he wrought <1754> in Christ <5547>, when he 
raised <1453> him from the dead <3498>, and set <2523> [him] at 
<1722> his own <0848> right <1188> hand in the heavenly <2032> 
[places],



 21  Far <5231> above <5231> all <3956> principality <0746>, and 
power <1849>, and might <1411>, and dominion <2963>, and every 
<3956> name <3686> that is named <3687>, not only <3440> in this 
<3588> world <0165>, but also <2532> in that which is to come 
<3195>:



 22  And hath put <5293> all <3956> [things] under <5259> his 
feet <4228>, and gave <1325> him [to be] the head <2776> over 
<5228> all <3956> [things] to the church <1577>,



 23  Which <3748> is his body <4983>, the fulness <4138> of him 
that filleth <4137> all <3956> in all <3956>.



Ephesians   2



 1. And you [hath he quickened], who were dead <3498> in 
trespasses <3900> and sins <0266>;



 2  Wherein <3757> in time <4218> past ye walked <4043> 
according <2596> to the course <0165> of this <5127> world 
<2889>, according <2596> to the prince <0758> of the power 
<1849> of the air <0109>, the spirit <4151> that now <3568> 
worketh <1754> in the children <5207> of disobedience <0543>:



 3  Among <1722> whom <3739> also <2532> we all <3956> had our 
conversation <0390> in times <4218> past in the lusts <1939> of 
our flesh <4561>, fulfilling <4160> the desires <2307> of the 
flesh <4561> and of the mind <1271>; and were by nature <5449> 
the children <5043> of wrath <3709>, even <2532> as others 
<3062>.



 4. But God <2316>, who is rich <4145> in mercy <1656>, for his 
great <4183> love <0026> wherewith <3739> he loved <0025> us,



 5  Even <2532> when we were dead <3498> in sins <3900>, hath 
quickened <4806> us together <4806> with Christ <5547>, (by 
grace <5485> ye are saved <4982>;)



 6  And hath raised <4891> [us] up together <4891>, and made 
<4776> [us] sit <4776> together <4776> in heavenly <2032> 
[places] in Christ <5547> Jesus <2424>:



 7  That in the ages <0165> to come <1904> he might shew <1731> 
the exceeding <5235> riches <4149> of his grace <5485> in [his] 
kindness <5544> toward <1909> us through <1722> Christ <5547> 
Jesus <2424>.



 8  For by grace <5485> are ye saved <4982> through <1223> faith 
<4102>; and that not of yourselves <5216>: [it is] the gift 
<1435> of God <2316>:



 9  Not of works <2041>, lest <3361> any <5100> man should boast 
<2744>.



 10  For we are his workmanship <4161>, created <2936> in Christ 
<5547> Jesus <2424> unto good <0018> works <2041>, which <3739> 
God <2316> hath before <4282> ordained <4282> that we should 
walk <4043> in them.



 11. Wherefore <1352> remember <3421>, that ye [being] in time 
<4218> past Gentiles <1484> in the flesh <4561>, who <3588> are 
called <3004> Uncircumcision <0203> by that which <3588> is 
called <3004> the Circumcision <4061> in the flesh <4561> made 
<5499> by hands <5499>;



 12  That at <1722> that time <2540> ye were without <5565> 
Christ <5547>, being aliens <0526> from the commonwealth <4174> 
of Israel <2474>, and strangers <3581> from the covenants <1242> 
of promise <1860>, having <2192> no <3361> hope <1680>, and 
without <0112> God <0112> in the world <2889>:



 13  But now <3570> in Christ <5547> Jesus <2424> ye who <3739> 
sometimes <4218> were far <3112> off <3112> are made <1096> nigh 
<1451> by the blood <0129> of Christ <5547>.



 14. For he is our peace <1515>, who <3739> hath made <4160> 
both <0297> one <1520>, and hath broken <3089> down the middle 
<3320> wall of partition <5418> [between us];



 15  Having abolished <2673> in his flesh <4561> the enmity 
<2189>, [even] the law <3551> of commandments <1785> [contained] 
in ordinances <1378>; for to make <2936> in himself <1438> of 
twain <1417> one <1520> new <2537> man <0444>, [so] making 
<4160> peace <1515>;



 16  And that he might reconcile <0604> both <0297> unto God 
<2316> in one <1520> body <4983> by the cross <4716>, having 
slain <0615> the enmity <2189> thereby <0846>:



 17  And came <2064> and preached <2097> peace <1515> to you 
which <3588> were afar <3112> off, and to them that were nigh 
<1451>.



 18  For through <1223> him we both <0297> have <2192> access 
<4318> by one <1520> Spirit <4151> unto the Father <3962>.



 19  Now <3767> therefore <0686> ye are no <3765> more <3765> 
strangers <3581> and foreigners <3941>, but fellowcitizens 
<4847> with the saints <0040>, and of the household <3609> of 
God <2316>;



 20  And are built <2026> upon the foundation <2310> of the 
apostles <0652> and prophets <4396>, Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> 
himself <0848> being <5607> the chief <0204> corner <0204> 
[stone];



 21  In whom <3739> all <3956> the building <3619> fitly <4883> 
framed <4883> together <4883> groweth <0837> unto an holy <0040> 
temple <3485> in the Lord <2962>:



 22  In whom <3739> ye also <2532> are builded <4925> together 
<4925> for an habitation <2732> of God <2316> through <1722> the 
Spirit <4151>.



Ephesians   3



 1. For this <5127> cause <5484> I Paul <3972>, the prisoner 
<1198> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> for you Gentiles <1484>,



 2  If <1489> ye have heard <0191> of the dispensation <3622> of 
the grace <5485> of God <2316> which <3588> is given <1325> me 
to you-ward <5209>:



 3  How that by revelation <0602> he made <1107> known <1107> 
unto me the mystery <3466>; (as I wrote <4270> afore <4270> in 
few <3641> words,



 4  Whereby <3739>, when ye read <0314>, ye may <1410> 
understand <3539> my knowledge <4907> in the mystery <3466> of 
Christ <5547>)



 5  Which <3739> in other <2087> ages <1074> was not made <1107> 
known <1107> unto the sons <5207> of men <0444>, as it is now 
<3568> revealed <0601> unto his holy <0040> apostles <0652> and 
prophets <4396> by the Spirit <4151>;



 6  That the Gentiles <1484> should be fellowheirs <4789>, and 
of the same <4954> body <4954>, and partakers <4830> of his 
promise <1860> in Christ <5547> by the gospel <2098>:



 7  Whereof <3739> I was made <1096> a minister <1249>, 
according <2596> to the gift <1431> of the grace <5485> of God 
<2316> given <1325> unto me by the effectual <1753> working 
<1753> of his power <1411>.



 8  Unto me, who am less <1647> than the least <1647> of all 
<3956> saints <0040>, is this <3778> grace <5485> given <1325>, 
that I should preach <2097> among <1722> the Gentiles <1484> the 
unsearchable <0421> riches <4149> of Christ <5547>;



 9  And to make <5461> all <3956> [men] see <5461> what <5101> 
[is] the fellowship <2842> of the mystery <3466>, which <3588> 
from the beginning of the world <0165> hath been hid <0613> in 
God <2316>, who <3588> created <2936> all <3956> things by Jesus 
<2424> Christ <5547>:



 10  To the intent <2443> that now <3568> unto the 
principalities <0746> and powers <1849> in heavenly <2032> 
[places] might be known <1107> by the church <1577> the manifold 
<4182> wisdom <4678> of God <2316>,



 11  According <2596> to the eternal <0165> purpose <4286> which 
<3739> he purposed <4160> in Christ <5547> Jesus <2424> our Lord 
<2962>:



 12  In whom <3739> we have <2192> boldness <3954> and access 
<4318> with confidence <4006> by the faith <4102> of him.



 13  Wherefore <1352> I desire <0154> that ye faint <1573> not 
at <1722> my tribulations <2347> for you, which <3748> is your 
glory <1391>.



 14. For this <5127> cause <5484> I bow <2578> my knees <1119> 
unto the Father <3962> of our Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ 
<5547>,



 15  Of whom <3739> the whole <3956> family <3965> in heaven 
<3772> and earth <1093> is named <3687>,



 16  That he would grant <1325> you, according <2596> to the 
riches <4149> of his glory <1391>, to be strengthened <2901> 
with might <1411> by his Spirit <4151> in the inner <2080> man 
<0444>;



 17  That Christ <5547> may dwell <2730> in your <5216> hearts 
<2588> by faith <4102>; that ye, being rooted <4492> and 
grounded <2311> in love <0026>,



 18  May be able <1840> to comprehend <2638> with all <3956> 
saints <0040> what <5101> [is] the breadth <4114>, and length 
<3372>, and depth <0899>, and height <5311>;



 19  And to know <1097> the love <0026> of Christ <5547>, which 
passeth <5235> knowledge <1108>, that ye might be filled <4137> 
with all <3956> the fulness <4138> of God <2316>.



 20  Now <1161> unto him that is able <1410> to do <4160> 
exceeding <5228> abundantly <4053> above <5228> all <3956> that 
we ask <0154> or <2228> think <3539>, according <2596> to the 
power <1411> that worketh <1754> in us,



 21  Unto him [be] glory <1391> in the church <1577> by Christ 
<5547> Jesus <2424> throughout <1519> all <3956> ages <1074>, 
world <0165> without end <0165>. Amen <0281>.



Ephesians   4



 1. I therefore <3767>, the prisoner <1198> of the Lord <2962>, 
beseech <3870> you that ye walk <4043> worthy <0516> of the 
vocation <2821> wherewith <3739> ye are called <2564>,



 2. With all <3956> lowliness <5012> and meekness <4236>, with 
longsuffering <3115>, forbearing <0430> one <0240> another 
<0240> in love <0026>;



 3  Endeavouring <4704> to keep <5083> the unity <1775> of the 
Spirit <4151> in the bond <4886> of peace <1515>.



 4  [There is] one <1520> body <4983>, and one <1520> Spirit 
<4151>, even <2532> as ye are called <2564> in one <3391> hope 
<1680> of your <5216> calling <2821>;



 5  One <1520> Lord <2962>, one <1520> faith <4102>, one <3391> 
baptism <0908>,



 6  One <1520> God <2316> and Father <3962> of all <3956>, who 
<3588> [is] above <1909> all <3956>, and through <1223> all 
<3956>, and in you all <3956>.



 7  But unto every <1538> one <1520> of us is given <1325> grace 
<5485> according <2596> to the measure <3358> of the gift <1431> 
of Christ <5547>.



 8  Wherefore <1352> he saith <3004>, When he ascended <0305> up 
on <5311> high <5311>, he led <0162> captivity <0161> captive 
<0162>, and gave <1325> gifts <1390> unto men <0444>.



 9  (Now that he ascended <0305>, what <5101> is it but that he 
also <2532> descended <2597> first <4412> into <1519> the lower 
<2737> parts <3313> of the earth <1093>?



 10  He that descended <2597> is the same also <2532> that 
ascended <0305> up far <5231> above <5231> all <3956> heavens 
<3772>, that he might fill <4137> all <3956> things.)



 11  And he gave <1325> some <3588>, apostles <0652>; and some 
<3588>, prophets <4396>; and some <3588>, evangelists <2099>; 
and some <3588>, pastors <4166> and teachers <1320>;



 12  For the perfecting <2677> of the saints <0040>, for the 
work <2041> of the ministry <1248>, for the edifying <3619> of 
the body <4983> of Christ <5547>:



 13  Till <3360> we all <3956> come <2658> in the unity <1775> 
of the faith <4102>, and of the knowledge <1922> of the Son 
<5207> of God <2316>, unto a perfect <5046> man <0435>, unto the 
measure <3358> of the stature <2244> of the fulness <4138> of 
Christ <5547>:



 14  That we [henceforth <3063>] be no <3371> more <2001> 
children <3516>, tossed <2831> to and fro <2831>, and carried 
<4064> about <4064> with every <3596> wind <0417> of doctrine 
<1319>, by the sleight <2940> of men <0444>, [and] cunning 
craftiness <3834>, whereby <4314> they lie <3180> in wait <3180> 
to deceive <4106>;



 15  But speaking <0226> the truth <0226> in love <0026>, may 
grow <0837> up into <1519> him in all <3956> things, which 
<3739> is the head <2776>, [even] Christ <5547>:



 16  From whom <3739> the whole <3956> body <4983> fitly <4883> 
joined <4883> together <4883> and compacted <4822> by that which 
every <3596> joint <0860> supplieth <2024>, according <2596> to 
the effectual <1753> working <1753> in the measure <3358> of 
every <1538> part <3313>, maketh <4160> increase <0838> of the 
body <4983> unto the edifying <3619> of itself <1438> in love 
<0026>.



 17. This <5124> I say <3004> therefore <3767>, and testify 
<3143> in the Lord <2962>, that ye henceforth <3371> walk <4043> 
not as other <3062> Gentiles <1484> walk <4043>, in the vanity 
<3153> of their mind <3563>,



 18  Having the understanding <1271> darkened <4654>, being 
<5607> alienated <0526> from the life <2222> of God <2316> 
through <1223> the ignorance <0052> that is in them, because 
<1223> of the blindness <4457> of their heart <2588>:



 19  Who <3748> being past <0524> feeling <0524> have given 
<3860> themselves <1438> over <3860> unto lasciviousness <0766>, 
to work <2039> all <3956> uncleanness <0167> with greediness 
<4124>.



 20  But ye have not so <3779> learned <3129> Christ <5547>;



 21  If <1489> so <3779> be that ye have heard <0191> him, and 
have been taught <1321> by him, as the truth <0225> is in Jesus 
<2424>:



 22  That ye put <0659> off <0659> concerning <2596> the former 
<4387> conversation <0391> the old <3820> man <0444>, which 
<3588> is corrupt <5351> according <2596> to the deceitful 
<0539> lusts <1939>;



 23  And be renewed <0365> in the spirit <4151> of your <5216> 
mind <3563>;



 24  And that ye put <1746> on <1746> the new <2537> man <0444>, 
which <3588> after <2596> God <2316> is created <2936> in 
righteousness <1343> and true <0225> holiness <3742>.



 25  Wherefore <1352> putting <0659> away <0659> lying <5579>, 
speak <2980> every <1538> man truth <0226> with his neighbour 
<4139>: for we are members <3196> one <0240> of another <0240>.



 26  Be ye angry <3710>, and sin <0264> not: let not the sun 
<2246> go <1931> down <1931> upon your <5216> wrath <3950>:



 27  Neither <3383> give <1325> place <5117> to the devil <1228>.



 28  Let him that stole <2813> steal <2813> no <3371> more 
<2001>: but rather <3123> let him labour <2872>, working <2038> 
with [his] hands <5495> the thing which is good <0018>, that he 
may have <2192> to give <3330> to him that needeth <5532>.



 29  Let no <3361> corrupt <4550> communication <3056> proceed 
<1607> out of your <5216> mouth <4750>, but that which <1536> is 
good <0018> to the use <5532> of edifying <3619>, that it may 
minister <1325> grace <5485> unto the hearers <0191>.



 30  And grieve <3076> not the holy <0040> Spirit <4151> of God 
<2316>, whereby <3739> ye are sealed <4972> unto the day <2250> 
of redemption <0629>.



 31  Let all <3956> bitterness <4088>, and wrath <2372>, and 
anger <3709>, and clamour <2906>, and evil <0988> speaking 
<0988>, be put <0142> away from you, with all <3956> malice 
<2549>:



 32  And be ye kind <5543> one <0240> to another <0240>, 
tenderhearted <2155>, forgiving <5483> one <1438> another <1438>,
 even <2532> as God <2316> for Christ's <5547> sake <1722> hath 
forgiven <5483> you.



Ephesians   5



 1. Be ye therefore <3767> followers <3402> of God <2316>, as 
dear <0027> children <5043>;



 2  And walk <4043> in love <0026>, as Christ <5547> also <2532> 
hath loved <0026> us, and hath given <3860> himself <1438> for 
us an offering <4376> and a sacrifice <2378> to God <2316> for a 
sweetsmelling <2175> savour <3744>.



 3. But fornication <4202>, and all <3956> uncleanness <0167>, 
or <2228> covetousness <4124>, let it not be once <3366> named 
<3687> among <1722> you, as becometh <4241> saints <0040>;



 4  Neither <3756> filthiness <0151>, nor <2532> foolish <3473> 
talking <3473>, nor <2228> jesting <2160>, which <3588> are not 
convenient <0433>: but rather <3123> giving of thanks <2169>.



 5  For this <5124> ye know <1097>, that no <3756> whoremonger 
<4205>, nor <2228> unclean <0169> person, nor <2228> covetous 
<4123> man, who <3739> is an idolater <1496>, hath <2192> any 
inheritance <2817> in the kingdom <0932> of Christ <5547> and of 
God <2316>.



 6  Let no <3367> man <3367> deceive <0538> you with vain <2756> 
words <3056>: for because <1223> of these <5023> things cometh 
<2064> the wrath <3709> of God <2316> upon the children <5207> 
of disobedience <0543>.



 7  Be not ye therefore <3767> partakers <4830> with them.



 8  For ye were sometimes <4218> darkness <4655>, but now <3568> 
[are ye] light <5457> in the Lord <2962>: walk <4043> as 
children <5043> of light <5457>:



 9  (For the fruit <2590> of the Spirit <4151> [is] in all 
<3956> goodness <0019> and righteousness <1343> and truth <0226>;
)



 10  Proving <1381> what <5101> is acceptable <2101> unto the 
Lord <2962>.



 11  And have no <3361> fellowship <4790> with the unfruitful 
<0175> works <2041> of darkness <4655>, but rather <3123> 
reprove <1651> [them].



 12  For it is a shame <0149> even <2532> to speak <3004> of 
those <3588> things which are done <1096> of them in secret 
<2931>.



 13  But all <3956> things that are reproved <1651> are made 
<5319> manifest <5319> by the light <5457>: for whatsoever 
<3956> doth make <5319> manifest <5319> is light <5457>.



 14  Wherefore <1352> he saith <3004>, Awake <1453> thou that 
sleepest <2518>, and arise <0450> from the dead <3498>, and 
Christ <5547> shall give thee light <2017>.



 15  See <0991> then <3767> that ye walk <4043> circumspectly 
<0199>, not as fools <0781>, but as wise <4680>,



 16  Redeeming <1805> the time <2540>, because <3754> the days 
<2250> are evil <4190>.



 17  Wherefore <5124> be ye not unwise <0878>, but understanding 
<4920> what <5101> the will <2307> of the Lord <2962> [is].



 18  And be not drunk <3182> with wine <3631>, wherein <3757> is 
excess <0810>; but be filled <4137> with the Spirit <4151>;



 19  Speaking <2980> to yourselves <1438> in psalms <5568> and 
hymns <5215> and spiritual <4152> songs <5603>, singing <0103> 
and making <5567> melody <5567> in your <5216> heart <2588> to 
the Lord <2962>;



 20  Giving thanks <2168> always <3842> for all <3956> things 
unto God <2316> and the Father <3962> in the name <3686> of our 
Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>;



 21. Submitting <5293> yourselves one <0240> to another <0240> 
in the fear <5401> of God <2316>.



 22  Wives <1135>, submit <5293> yourselves unto your <3588> own 
<2398> husbands <0435>, as unto the Lord <2962>.



 23  For the husband <0435> is the head <2776> of the wife 
<1135>, even <2532> as Christ <5547> is the head <2776> of the 
church <1577>: and he is the saviour <4990> of the body <4983>.



 24  Therefore <0235> as the church <1577> is subject <5293> 
unto Christ <5547>, so <3779> [let] the wives <1135> [be] to 
their own <2398> husbands <0435> in every <3956> thing.



 25  Husbands <0435>, love <0025> your <1438> wives <1135>, even 
<2531> as Christ <5547> also <2532> loved <0025> the church 
<1577>, and gave <3860> himself <1438> for it;



 26  That he might sanctify <0037> and cleanse <2511> it with 
the washing <3067> of water <5204> by the word <4487>,



 27  That he might present <3936> it to himself <1438> a 
glorious <1741> church <1577>, not having <2192> spot <4696>, or 
<2228> wrinkle <4512>, or <2228> any <5100> such <5108> thing; 
but that it should be holy <0040> and without <0299> blemish 
<0299>.



 28  So <3779> ought <3784> men <0435> to love <0025> their 
wives <1135> as their own <1438> bodies <4983>. He that loveth 
<0025> his wife <1135> loveth <0025> himself <1438>.



 29  For no <3762> man <3762> ever <4218> yet hated <3404> his 
own <1438> flesh <4561>; but nourisheth <1625> and cherisheth 
<2282> it, even <2532> as the Lord <2962> the church <1577>:



 30  For we are members <3196> of his body <4983>, of his flesh 
<4561>, and of his bones <3747>.



 31  For this <5127> cause <0873> shall a man <0444> leave 
<2641> his father <3962> and mother <3384>, and shall be joined 
<4347> unto his wife <1135>, and they two <1417> shall be one 
<3391> flesh <4561>.



 32  This <5124> is a great <3173> mystery <3466>: but I speak 
<3004> concerning <1519> Christ <5547> and the church <1577>.



 33  Nevertheless <4133> let every <1520> one of you in 
particular <1520> so <3779> love <0025> his wife <1135> even 
<5613> as himself <1438>; and the wife <1135> [see] that she 
reverence <5399> [her] husband <0435>.



Ephesians   6



 1. Children <5043>, obey <5219> your <5216> parents <1118> in 
the Lord <2962>: for this <5124> is right <1342>.



 2  Honour <5091> thy father <3962> and mother <3384>; (which 
<3748> is the first <4413> commandment <1785> with promise 
<1860>;)



 3  That it may be well <2095> with thee, and thou mayest live 
<3118> long <2118> on <1909> the earth <1093>.



 4  And, ye fathers <3962>, provoke <3949> not your <5216> 
children <5043> to wrath <3949>: but bring <1625> them up in the 
nurture <3809> and admonition <3559> of the Lord <2962>.



 5  Servants <1401>, be obedient <5219> to them that are [your] 
masters <2962> according <2596> to the flesh <4561>, with fear 
<5401> and trembling <5156>, in singleness <0572> of your <5216> 
heart <2588>, as unto Christ <5547>;



 6  Not with eyeservice <3787>, as menpleasers <0441>; but as 
the servants <1401> of Christ <5547>, doing <4160> the will 
<2307> of God <2316> from the heart <5590>;



 7  With good <2133> will <2133> doing <1398> service <1398>, as 
to the Lord <2962>, and not to men <0444>:



 8  Knowing <1492> that whatsoever <5100> good <0018> thing any 
<1538> man doeth <4160>, the same <3778> shall he receive <2865> 
of the Lord <2962>, whether <1535> [he be] bond <1401> or <1535> 
free <1658>.



 9  And, ye masters <2962>, do <4160> the same <0846> things 
unto them, forbearing <0447> threatening <0547>: knowing <1492> 
that your <5216> Master <2962> also <2532> is in heaven <3772>; 
neither <3756> is there respect <3382> of persons <4382> with 
him.



 10. Finally <3063>, my brethren <0080>, be strong <1743> in the 
Lord <2962>, and in the power <2904> of his might <2479>.



 11  Put <1746> on <1746> the whole armour <3833> of God <2316>, 
that ye may be able <1410> to stand <2476> against <4314> the 
wiles <3180> of the devil <1228>.



 12  For we wrestle <3823> not against <4314> flesh <4561> and 
blood <0129>, but against <4314> principalities <0746>, against 
<4314> powers <1849>, against <4314> the rulers <2888> of the 
darkness <4655> of this <5127> world <0165>, against <4314> 
spiritual <4152> wickedness <4189> in high <2032> [places].



 13  Wherefore <5124> take <0353> unto you the whole armour 
<3833> of God <2316>, that ye may be able <1410> to withstand 
<0436> in the evil <4190> day <2250>, and having done <2716> all 
<0537>, to stand <2476>.



 14  Stand <2476> therefore <3767>, having your <5216> loins 
<3751> girt <4024> about <4024> with truth <0226>, and having 
<1746> on <1746> the breastplate <2382> of righteousness <1343>;



 15  And your <3588> feet <4228> shod <5265> with the 
preparation <2091> of the gospel <2098> of peace <1515>;



 16  Above <1909> all <3956>, taking <0353> the shield <2375> of 
faith <4102>, wherewith <3739> ye shall be able <1410> to quench 
<4570> all <3956> the fiery <4448> darts <0956> of the wicked 
<4190>.



 17  And take <1209> the helmet <4030> of salvation <4992>, and 
the sword <3162> of the Spirit <4151>, which <3739> is the word 
<4487> of God <2316>:



 18  Praying <4336> always <2540> with all <3956> prayer <4335> 
and supplication <1162> in the Spirit <4151>, and watching 
<0069> thereunto <5124> with all <3956> perseverance <4343> and 
supplication <1162> for all <3956> saints <0040>;



 19. And for me, that utterance <3056> may be given <1325> unto 
me, that I may open <0457> my mouth <4750> boldly <3954>, to 
make <1107> known <1107> the mystery <3466> of the gospel <2098>,



 20  For which <3739> I am an ambassador <4243> in bonds <0254>: 
that therein <0846> I may speak boldly <3955>, as I ought <1163> 
to speak <2980>.



 21  But that ye also <2532> may know <1492> my affairs <2596>, 
[and] how <5101> I do <4238>, Tychicus <5190>, a beloved <0027> 
brother <0080> and faithful <4103> minister <1249> in the Lord 
<2962>, shall make <1107> known <1107> to you all <3956> things:



 22  Whom <3739> I have sent <3992> unto you for the same <0846> 
purpose, that ye might know <1097> our affairs <4012>, and 
[that] he might comfort <3870> your <5216> hearts <2588>.



 23  Peace <1515> [be] to the brethren <0080>, and love <0026> 
with faith <4102>, from God <2316> the Father <3962> and the 
Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>.



 24  Grace <5485> [be] with all <3956> them that love <0025> our 
Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> in sincerity <0861>. Amen 
<0281>.
