Ephesians 5 RV1885 — Ephesians 5

1 Be ye therefore imitators of God, as beloved children; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:1

2 and walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odour of a sweet smell. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:2

3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:3

4 nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, or jesting, which are not befitting: but rather giving of thanks. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:4

5 For this ye know of a surety, that no fornicator, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, which is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:5

6 Let no man deceive you with empty words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:6

7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:7

8 For ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord: walk as children of light RV1885 — Ephesians 5:8

9 (for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth), RV1885 — Ephesians 5:9

10 proving what is well-pleasing unto the Lord; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:10

11 and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:11

12 for the things which are done by them in secret it is a shame even to speak of. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:12

13 But all things when they are reproved are made manifest by the light: for everything that is made manifest is light. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:13

14 Wherefore he saith, Awake, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall shine upon thee. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:14

15 Look therefore carefully how ye walk, not as unwise, but as wise; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:15

16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:16

17 Wherefore be ye not foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:17

18 And be not drunken with wine, wherein is riot, but be filled with the Spirit; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:18

19 speaking one to another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:19

20 giving thanks always for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:20

21 subjecting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:21

22 Wives, be in subjection unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:22

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, being himself the saviour of the body. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:23

24 But as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their husbands in everything. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:24

25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:25

26 that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, RV1885 — Ephesians 5:26

27 that he might present the church to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:27

28 Even so ought husbands also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his own wife loveth himself: RV1885 — Ephesians 5:28

29 for no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as Christ also the church; RV1885 — Ephesians 5:29

30 because we are members of his body. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:30

31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the twain shall become one flesh. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:31

32 This mystery is great: but I speak in regard of Christ and of the church. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:32

33 Nevertheless do ye also severally love each one his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she fear her husband. RV1885 — Ephesians 5:33
