< Ephesians 6 >
1 you who [are] Children, do obey the parents of you in [the] Lord; this for is right.
2 do honor the Father of you and mother, which is [the] commandment first with a promise,
3 that well with you it may be and you will be long-lived upon the earth.
4 And you who [are] fathers, not do provoke the children of you, but do bring up them in [the] discipline and admonition of [the] Lord.
5 you who [are] slaves, do obey the according to flesh masters with fear and trembling in sincerity of the heart of you as to Christ.
6 not with eye-service as men-pleasers but as servants of Christ doing the will of God from [the] heart
7 with good will rendering service as to the Lord and not to men,
8 knowing that each one (what *ko) (maybe *NK+o) whatever he shall do good this he will receive [back] from (the *k) Lord whether slave or free.
9 And you who [are] masters, the [same things] them do perform toward them giving up the threatening, knowing that (also *no) of them and of you the master is in [the] heavens and partiality not there is with Him.
10 (Henceforth *N+kO) (brothers of mine *K) do be empowered in [the] Lord and in the strength of the might of Him.
11 do put on the complete armor of God for to be able you to stand against the schemes of the devil;
12 because not is to us the wrestling against blood and flesh but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of the darkness (age *K) this, against the spiritual [forces] of evil in the heavenly realms. (aiōn )
13 Because of this do take up the complete armor of God, so that you may be able to withstand in the day evil and all things having done to stand.
14 do stand therefore having girded the loins of you with truth and having put on the breastplate of righteousness
15 and having shod the feet with [the] readiness of the gospel of peace;
16 (besides *N+kO) all having taken up the shield of faith with which you will be able all the arrows of the evil one which enflamed to quench;
17 And the helmet of salvation (do take *NK+O) and the sword of the Spirit which is declaration of God;
18 through all [times] prayer and supplication praying in every season in [the] Spirit and unto (this *k) watching with all perseverance and with supplication for all saints
19 and also for me, that to me (may be given *N+kO) divine utterance in [the] opening of the mouth of mine with boldness to make known the mystery of the gospel,
20 for which I am an ambassador in a chain, that in it I may be bold as it behooves me to speak.
21 That now may know also you yourselves the [things] concerning me myself, what I am doing, all things will make known to you Tychicus the beloved brother and faithful servant in [the] Lord,
22 whom I have sent to you for this very purpose that you may know the [things] concerning us, and he may encourage the hearts of you.
23 Peace to the brothers and love with faith from God [the] Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.
24 Grace [be] with all those loving the Lord of us Jesus Christ in incorruptibility (to Ephesian it was written from Rome through Tychicus. *K)
