¹ Be, therefore, imitators of God, as beloved children; ² and walk in love, even as Christ has loved us, and has given himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God, for a sweet smelling savor. ³ But whoredom, and all uncleanness, and inordinate desire- let them not even be named among you; (as it becomes saints;) ⁴ nor obscenity, nor foolish talking, nor double meanings, nor things uncomely; but rather thanksgiving. ⁵ For this you know, that no fornicator, nor unclean person, nor lascivious man, who is an idolater, has inheritance in the kingdom of Christ, and of God. ⁶ Let no one deceive you with vain speeches; for on account of these things, the wrath of God comes upon the children of disobedience. ⁷ Be not, therefore, participants with them. ⁸ For you were formerly darkness; but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light. ⁹ (Now, the fruit of life consists in all goodness, and righteousness, and truth.) ¹⁰ Approve what is well pleasing to the Lord. ¹¹ And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them. ¹² For the things which are secretly done by them, it is base even to mention. ¹³ But all these reprehensible things are made manifest by the light; for whatever makes manifest is light. ¹⁴ Wherefore, it says, Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine upon you. ¹⁵ See, then, that you walk accurately: not as fools, but as wise men; ¹⁶ redeeming time, because the days are evil. ¹⁷ Therefore be not simpletons, but understand what the will of the Lord is. ¹⁸ And we not drunk with wine, by which comes dissoluteness; 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 at all times for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God, even the Father. ²¹ Be subject to one another, in the fear of God. ²² Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. ²³ For the husband is head of the wife, even as Christ is head of the congregation; he is the saviour of the body. ²⁴ Therefore, as the congregation is subject to Christ; so, also, let the wives be to their own husbands, in everything. ²⁵ Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ, also, loved the congregation, and gave himself for it; ²⁶ that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it with a bath of water, with the word. ²⁷ That he might present it to himself glorious, a congregation not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it might be holy, and without blemish. ²⁸ So ought husbands to love their own wives, as their own bodies: he who loves his own wife, loves himself. ²⁹ For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord the congregation: ³⁰ because we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. ³¹ For this reason shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall adhere to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh. ³² This is a great mystery; but I speak concerning Christ and the congregation. ³³ Therefore, also, let every one of you in particular, so love his own wife as himself; and let the wife reverence her husband.
