For whatsoever is manifest, that same is light. ¹⁴ Wherefore he saith, "Awake thou that sleepest, and stand up from death, and Christ shall give thee light." ¹⁵ Take heed therefore that ye walk circumspectly — not as fools, but as wise - ¹⁶ redeeming the time: for the days are evil. ¹⁷ Wherefore, be ye not unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. ¹⁸ And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess: but be fulfilled with the spirit, ¹⁹ speaking unto yourselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord in your hearts, ²⁰ giving thanks always for all things unto God the father, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ: ²¹ submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. ²² Women: submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. ²³ For the husband is the wife's head, even as Christ is the head of the congregation, and the same is the saviour of the body. ²⁴ Therefore as the congregation is in subjection to Christ, likewise let the wives be in subjection to their husbands in all things. ²⁵ Husbands: love your wives, even as Christ loved the congregation, and gave himself for it, ²⁶ to sanctify it, and cleansed it in the fountain of water through the word, ²⁷ to make it unto himself a glorious congregation without spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing: but that it should be holy and without blame. ²⁸ So ought men to love their wives, as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife, loveth himself. ²⁹ For no man ever yet, hated his own flesh; but nourisheth, and cherisheth it: even as the Lord doth the congregation. ³⁰ For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. ³¹ "For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall continue with his wife, and two shall be made one flesh." ³² This is a great secret, but I speak between Christ and the congregation. ³³ Nevertheless, do ye so that every one of you love his wife truly even as himself: And let the wife see that she fear her husband.

²⁵ Husbands: love your wives, even as Christ loved the congregation, and gave himself for it,

²¹ submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

⁷ Likewise, ye men, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as unto them that are heirs also of the grace of life, that your prayers be not let.
