< Ephesians 5 >

1 do be therefore imitators of God as children beloved 2 and do walk in love even as also Christ loved (us *NK+O) and gave up himself for (us *NK+O) [as] an offering and a sacrifice to God into an aroma of a sweet smell. 3 Sexual immorality however and impurity all or covetousness not even should be named among you as is proper to saints 4 and filthiness and foolish talking or crude joking (which *N+kO) not (were fit *N+kO) but rather thanksgiving. 5 This for (you should know *N+kO) realizing that any fornicator or unclean person or covetous man, (who *N+kO) is an idolater, not has inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. 6 No one you should deceive with empty words; because of these things for comes the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience. 7 Not therefore do be partakers with them. 8 You were for once darkness now however light in [the] Lord; as children of light do walk — 9 for the fruit of the (light [is] *N+KO) in all goodness and in righteousness and in truth — 10 discerning what is well-pleasing to the Lord. 11 And not do have fellowship with the works unfruitful of darkness, rather however even do expose [them]; 12 the [things] for in secret being done by them shameful it is even to mention. 13 But everything being exposed by the light is made visible; everything for which is becoming visible light is; 14 Therefore it says: (do awake *N+kO) you who [are] sleeping and do rise up out from the dead, and will shine upon you Christ. 15 do take heed therefore carefully how you walk not as unwise but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days evil are. 17 Because of this not do be foolish, but (do understand *N+kO) what the will of the Lord [is]. 18 And not do be drunk with wine, in which is debauchery, Instead do be filled with [the] Spirit 19 speaking to each other (in *n) psalms and in hymns and in songs spiritual, singing and making melody (in *ko) the heart of you to the Lord, 20 giving thanks at all times for all things in [the] name the Lord of us Jesus Christ to the God and Father; 21 Be submitting yourselves to one another in reverence (of Christ. *N+KO) 22 you who [are] wives, to [your] own husbands (do submit yourselves *K+O) as to the Lord; 23 for (the *k) husband is head of the wife as also Christ [is the] head of the church, (and *k) He Himself (is *k) Savior of the body; 24 But (even as *N+kO) the church is subjected to Christ so also wives (to [their] own *K) husbands in everything. 25 you who [are] Husbands, do love the wives (of your own *K) even as also Christ loved the church and Himself gave up for her 26 so that her He may sanctify having cleansed [her] by the washing of water by declaration 27 so that may present (He himself *N+kO) to Himself in glory the church not having spot or wrinkle or any of the such things, but that it may be holy and blameless. 28 So ought (also *no) husbands to love the their own wives as the their own bodies. The [one] loving the his own wife himself loves; 29 no [one] for at any time the his own flesh hated, but he nourishes and he cherishes it even as also [does] (Christ *N+KO) the church, 30 for members we are of the body of Him (from the flesh of Him and from the of bones of Him. *K) 31 Because of this will leave a man the father (of him *k) and mother and will be joined to (the wife *NK+o) of him, and will be the two into flesh one. 32 mystery this great is, I myself however speak as to Christ and as to the church. 33 However also you according to individual, each the his own wife so should love as himself, and the wife that she may respect the husband.
