5:1 Be 1096 5737 ye 3402 0 therefore 3767 followers 3402 of God 2316, as 5613 dear 27 children 5043;

5:2 And 2532 walk 4043 5720 in 1722 love 26, as 2531 Christ 5547 also 2532 hath loved 25 5656 us 2248, and 2532 hath given 3860 5656 himself 1438 for 5228 us 2257 an offering 4376 and 2532 a sacrifice 2378 to God 2316 for 1519 a sweetsmelling 2175 savour 3744.

5:3 But 2532 fornication 4202, and 1161 all 3956 uncleanness 167, or 2228 covetousness 4124, let it 3687 0 not be once 3366 named 3687 5744 among 1722 you 5213, as 2531 becometh 4241 5719 saints 40;

5:4 Neither 2532 filthiness 151, nor 2532 foolish talking 3473, nor 2228 jesting 2160, which 3588 are 433 0 not 3756 convenient 433 5723: but 235 rather 3123 giving of thanks 2169.

5:5 For 1063 this 5124 ye know 2075 5748 1097 5723, that 3754 no 3756 3956 whoremonger 4205, nor 2228 unclean person 169, nor 2228 covetous man 4123, who 3739 is 2076 5748 an idolater 1496, hath 2192 5719 any inheritance 2817 in 1722 the kingdom 932 of Christ 5547 and 2532 of God 2316.

5:6 Let 538 0 no man 3367 deceive 538 5720 you 5209 with vain 2756 words 3056: for 1063 because 1223 of these things 5023 cometh 2064 5736 the wrath 3709 of God 2316 upon 1909 the children 5207 of disobedience 543.(disobedience: or, unbelief)

5:7 Be 1096 0 not 3361 ye 1096 5737 therefore 3767 partakers 4830 with them 846.

5:8 For 1063 ye were 2258 5713 sometimes 4218 darkness 4655, but 1161 now 3568 [are ye] light 5457 in 1722 the Lord 2962: walk 4043 5720 as 5613 children 5043 of light 5457:

5:9 (For 1063 the fruit 2590 of the Spirit 4151 [is] in 1722 all 3956 goodness 19 and 2532 righteousness 1343 and 2532 truth 225;)

5:10 Proving 1381 5723 what 5101 is 2076 5748 acceptable 2101 unto the Lord 2962.

5:11 And 2532 have 4790 0 no 3361 fellowship 4790 5720 with the unfruitful 175 works 2041 of darkness 4655, but 1161 rather 3123 2532 reprove 1651 5720 [them].

5:12 For 1063 it is 2076 5748 a shame 149 even 2532 to speak 3004 5721 of those things 2931 0 which are done 1096 5740 of 5259 them 846 in secret 2931.

5:13 But 1161 all things 3956 that are reproved 1651 5746 are made manifest 5319 5743 by 5259 the light 5457: for 1063 whatsoever 3956 doth make manifest 5319 5746 is 2076 5748 light 5457.(reproved: or, discovered)

5:14 Wherefore 1352 he saith 3004 5719, Awake thou 1453 5669 that sleepest 2518 5723, and 2532 arise 450 5628 from 1537 the dead 3498, and 2532 Christ 5547 shall give 2017 0 thee 4671 light 2017 5692.(he: or, it)

5:15 See 991 5720 then 3767 that 4459 ye walk 4043 5719 circumspectly 199, not 3361 as 5613 fools 781, but 235 as 5613 wise 4680,

5:16 Redeeming 1805 5734 the time 2540, because 3754 the days 2250 are 1526 5748 evil 4190.

5:17 Wherefore 1223 5124 be ye 1096 5737 not 3361 unwise 878, but 235 understanding 4920 5723 what 5101 the will 2307 of the Lord 2962 [is].

5:18 And 2532 be 3182 0 not 3361 drunk 3182 5745 with wine 3631, wherein 1722 3739 is 2076 5748 excess 810; but 235 be filled 4137 5744 with 1722 the Spirit 4151;

5:19 Speaking 2980 5723 to yourselves 1438 in psalms 5568 and 2532 hymns 5215 and 2532 spiritual 4152 songs 5603, singing 103 5723 and 2532 making melody 5567 5723 in 1722 your 5216 heart 2588 to the Lord 2962;

5:20 Giving thanks 2168 5723 always 3842 for 5228 all things 3956 unto God 2316 and 2532 the Father 3962 in 1722 the name 3686 of our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547;

5:21 Submitting yourselves 5293 5746 one to another 240 in 1722 the fear 5401 of God 2316.

5:22 Wives 1135, submit yourselves 5293 5732 unto your own 2398 husbands 435, as 5613 unto the Lord 2962.

5:23 For 3754 the husband 435 is 2076 5748 the head 2776 of the wife 1135, even 2532 as 5613 Christ 5547 is the head 2776 of the church 1577: and 2532 he 846 is 2076 5748 the saviour 4990 of the body 4983.

5:24 Therefore 235 as 5618 the church 1577 is subject 5293 5743 unto Christ 5547, so 3779 2532 [let] the wives 1135 [be] to their own 2398 husbands 435 in 1722 every thing 3956.

5:25 Husbands 435, love 25 5720 your 1438 wives 1135, even as 2531 Christ 5547 also 2532 loved 25 5656 the church 1577, and 2532 gave 3860 5656 himself 1438 for 5228 it 846;

5:26 That 2443 he 846 might sanctify 37 5661 and cleanse it 2511 5660 with the washing 3067 of water 5204 by 1722 the word 4487,

5:27 That 2443 he might present 3936 5661 it 846 to himself 1438 a glorious 1741 church 1577, not 3361 having 2192 5723 spot 4696, or 2228 wrinkle 4512, or 2228 any 5100 such thing 5108; but 235 that 2443 it should be 5600 5753 holy 40 and 2532 without blemish 299.

5:28 So 3779 ought 3784 5719 men 435 to love 25 5721 their 1438 wives 1135 as 5613 their own 1438 bodies 4983. He that loveth 25 5723 his 1438 wife 1135 loveth 25 5719 himself 1438.

5:29 For 1063 no man 3762 ever yet 4218 hated 3404 5656 his own 1438 flesh 4561; but 235 nourisheth 1625 5719 and 2532 cherisheth 2282 5719 it 846, even as 2531 2532 the Lord 2962 the church 1577:

5:30 For 3754 we are 2070 5748 members 3196 of his 846 body 4983, of 1537 his 846 flesh 4561, and 2532 of 1537 his 846 bones 3747.

5:31 For 473 this cause 5127 shall 2641 0 a man 444 leave 2641 5692 his 846 father 3962 and 2532 mother 3384, and 2532 shall be joined 4347 5701 unto 4314 his 846 wife 1135, and 2532 they two 1417 shall be 2071 5704 one 1519 3391 flesh 4561.

5:32 This 5124 is 2076 5748 a great 3173 mystery 3466: but 1161 I 1473 speak 3004 5719 concerning 1519 Christ 5547 and 1519 2532 the church 1577.

5:33 Nevertheless 4133 2532 let 25 0 every one 1520 1538 of you 5210 in particular 2596 so 3779 love 25 5720 his 1438 wife 1135 even as 5613 himself 1438; and 1161 the wife 1135 [see] that 2443 she reverence 5399 5741 [her] husband 435.
