¹⁴ But thanks be to God, who always causes us to triumph in Christ, and makes manifest by us in every place the savor of the knowledge of him. ¹⁵ Because we are to God a sweet savor of Christ, in those who are saved, and in those who perish; ¹⁶ to the one a savor of death unto death, to the other a savor of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things? ¹⁷ For we are not as the many, corrupting the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.

¹ BECOME therefore followers of God, as beloved children ² and walk in love, as also Christ loved us, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of sweet smell. ³ But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becomes saints, ⁴ and filthiness, and foolish talking, and jesting, which are not becoming, but rather giving of thanks. ⁵ For this ye know, being aware that no fornicator, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. ⁶ Let no one deceive you with vain words; for because of these things comes the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience. ⁷ Become not therefore partakers with them. ⁸ For ye were once darkness, but now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,— ⁹ for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,— ¹⁰ proving what is acceptable to the Lord; ¹¹ and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather also reprove them. ¹² For it is a shame even to speak of the things done by them in secret. ¹³ But all things, when reproved, are by the light made manifest; for whatever makes manifest is light. ¹⁴ Wherefore he says: Awake, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ will give thee light. ¹⁵ See to it then, how ye walk with exactness, not as unwise, but as wise, ¹⁶ redeeming the time, because the days are evil. ¹⁷ Therefore be not foolish, but understanding what is the will of the Lord. ¹⁸ And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess, but be filled with the Spirit; ¹⁹ speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; ²⁰ giving thanks always for all things, to God and the Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; ²¹ submitting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ; ²² wives to their own husbands, as to the Lord. ²³ Because a husband is the head of the wife, as also Christ is the head of the church; himself the Savior of the body. ²⁴ But as the church is subjected to Christ, so also are the wives to their own husbands in everything. ²⁵ Husbands, love your wives, as also Christ loved the church, and gave himself up for it; ²⁶ that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the bathing of water in the word, ²⁷ that he might himself present to himself the church, glorious, having no spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing, but that it may be holy and blameless. ²⁸ So husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loves his wife loves himself. ²⁹ For no one ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, as also Christ the church; ³⁰ because we are members of his body, [being] of his flesh, and of his bones. ³¹ For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh. ³² This mystery is great; but I am speaking of Christ and of the church. ³³ Nevertheless, do ye also, severally, each so love his wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she reverence her husband.

³ Then Mary took a pound of ointment of pure spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.
