1:1. Paul <3972-Paulos->, an apostle <0652-apostolos-> of Jesus


<2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos-> by the will <2307-thelema-
> of God <2316-theos->, to the saints <0040-hagios- > which <3588-
ho-> are at <1722-en-> Ephesus <2181-Ephesos->, and to the
faithful <4103-pistos-> in Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-
Iesous->:

1:02 Grace <5485-charis-> [be] to you, and peace <1515- eirene->,
from God <2316-theos-> our Father <3962-pater->, and [from] the
Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ < 5547-Christos->.

1:3. Blessed <2128-eulogetos-> [be] the God <2316-theos- > and
Father <3962-pater-> of our Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-
Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos->, who <3588-ho-> hath blessed
<2127-eulogeo-> us with all <3956-pas-> spiritual < 4152-
pneumatikos-> blessings <2129-eulogia-> in heavenly < 2032-
epouranios-> [places] in rist <5547-Christos->:

1:04 According <2531-kathos-> as he hath chosen <1586- eklegomai-
> us in him before <4253-pro-> the foundation <2602- katabole->
of the world <2889-kosmos->, that we should be holy < 0040-hagios-
> and without <0299-amomos-> blame <0299-amomos-> before <2714-
katenopion-> him in love <0026-agape->:

1:05 Having predestinated <4309-proorizo-> us unto the adoption
<5206-huiothesia-> of children <5206-huiothesia-> by Jesus <2424-
Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos-> to himself <0848- hautou->,
according <2596-kata-> to the good pleasure <2107- eudokia-> of
his will <2307-thelema->,

1:06 To the praise <1868-epainos-> of the glory <1391- doxa-> of
his grace <5485-charis->, wherein <3757-hou-> he hath made <5487-
charitoo-> us accepted <5487-charitoo-> in the beloved <0025-
agapao->.

1:07 In whom <3739-hos-> we have <2192-echo-> redemption <0629-
apolutrosis-> through <1223-dia-> his blood <0129- haima->, the
forgiveness <0859-aphesis-> of sins <3900-paraptoma->, according
<2596-kata-> to the riches <4149-ploutos-> of his grace <5485-
charis->;

1:08 Wherein <3757-hou-> he hath abounded <4052- perisseuo->
toward <1519-eis-> us in all <3956-pas-> wisdom < 4678-sophia->
and prudence <5428-phronesis->;

1:09 Having made <1107-gnorizo-> known <1107-gnorizo-> unto us
the mystery <3466-musterion-> of his will <2307-thelema- >,
according <2596-kata-> to his good pleasure <2107- eudokia->
which <3739-hos-> he hath purposed <4388-protithemai-> in
himself <0848-hautou->:

1:10 That in the dispensation <3622-oikonomia-> of the fulness
<4138-pleroma-> of times <2540-kairos-> he might gather <0346-
anakephalaiomai-> together <0346-anakephalaiomai-> in one all
<3956-pas-> things in Christ <5547-Christos->, both <5037-te->
which <3588-ho-> are in heaven <3772-ouranos->, and which <3588-
ho-> are on <1909-epi-> earth <1093-ge->; [even] in him:

1:11 In whom <3739-hos-> also <2532-kai-> we have obtained <2820-
kleroo-> an inheritance <2820-kleroo->, being predestinated
<4309-proorizo-> according <2596-kata-> to the purpose <4286-
prothesis-> of him who worketh <1754-energeo-> all < 3956-pas->
things after <2596-kata-> the counsel <1012-boule-> of his own
<0848-hautou-> will <2307-thelema->:

1:12 That we should be to the praise <1868-epainos-> of his
glory <1391-doxa->, who <3588-ho-> first <4276- proelpizo->
trusted <4276-proelpizo-> in Christ <5547-Christos->.

1:13 In whom <3739-hos-> ye also <2532-kai-> [trusted], after
that ye heard <0191-akouo-> the word <4487-rhema-> of truth
<0225-aletheia->, the gospel <2098-euaggelion-> of your <5216-
humon-> salvation <4991-soteria->: in whom <3739-hos- > also
<2532-kai-> after that ye believed <4100-pisteuo->, ye were
sealed <4972-sphragizo-> with that holy <0040-hagios-> Spirit
<4151-pneuma-> of promise <1860-epaggelia->,

1:14 Which <3739-hos-> is the earnest <0728-arrhabon-> of our
inheritance <2817-kleronomia-> until <1519-eis-> the redemption
<0629-apolutrosis-> of the purchased <4047-peripoiesis- >
possession <4047-peripoiesis->, unto the praise <1868- epainos->
of his glory <1391-doxa->.

1:15. Wherefore <5124-touto-> I also <2504-kago->, after I heard
<0191-akouo-> of your <5209-humas-> faith <4102- pistis-> in the
Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous->, and love <0026-agape->
unto all <3956-pas-> the saints <0040-hagios->,

1:16 Cease <3973-pauo-> not to give thanks <2168- eucharisteo->
for you, making <4160-poieo-> mention <3417-mneia-> of you in my
prayers <4335-proseuche->;

1:17 That the God <2316-theos-> of our Lord <2962-kurios- > Jesus
<2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos->, the Father <3962-pater->
of glory <1391-doxa->, may give <1325-didomi-> unto you the
spirit <4151-pneuma-> of wisdom <4678-sophia-> and revelation
<0602-apokalupsis-> in the knowledge <1922-epignosis-> of him:

1:18 The eyes <3788-ophthalmos-> of your <5216-humon->
understanding <1271-dianoia-> being enlightened <5461- photizo->;
that ye may know <1492-eido-> what <5101-tis-> is the hope <1680-
elpis-> of his calling <2821-klesis->, and what <5101- tis-> the
riches <4149-ploutos-> of the glory <1391-doxa-> of his
inheritance <2817-kleronomia-> in the saints <0040- hagios->,

1:19 And what <5101-tis-> [is] the exceeding <5235- huperballo->
greatness <3174-megethos-> of his power <1411-dunamis- > to us-
ward <2248-hemas-> who <3588-ho-> believe <4100- pisteuo->,
according <2596-kata-> to the working <1753-energeia-> of his
mighty <2479-ischus-> power <2904-kratos->,

1:20 Which <3739-hos-> he wrought <1754-energeo-> in Christ
<5547-Christos->, when he raised <1453-egeiro-> him from the
dead <3498-nekros->, and set <2523-kathizo-> [him] at <1722-en->
his own <0848-hautou-> right <1188-dexios-> hand in the heavenly
<2032-epouranios-> [places],

1:21 Far <5231-huperano-> above <5231-huperano-> all <3956-pas->
principality <0746-arche->, and power <1849-exousia->, and might
<1411-dunamis->, and dominion <2963-kuriotes->, and every <3956-
pas-> name <3686-onoma-> that is named <3687-onomazo- >, not only
<3440-monon-> in this <3588-ho-> world <0165-aion- >, but also
<2532-kai-> in that which is to come <3195-mello->:

1:22 And hath put <5293-hupotasso-> all <3956-pas-> [things]
under <5259-hupo-> his feet <4228-pous->, and gave <1325-didomi-
> him [to be] the head <2776-kephale-> over <5228- huper-> all
<3956-pas-> [things] to the church <1577-ekklesia->,

1:23 Which <3748-hostis-> is his body <4983-soma->, the fulness
<4138-pleroma-> of him that filleth <4137-pleroo-> all <3956-pas-
> in all <3956-pas->.

2:1. And you [hath he quickened], who were dead <3498-nekros- >
in trespasses <3900-paraptoma-> and sins <0266-hamartia- >;

2:02 Wherein <3757-hou-> in time <4218-pote-> past ye walked
<4043-peripateo-> according <2596-kata-> to the course <0165-
aion-> of this <5127-toutou-> world <2889-kosmos->, according
<2596-kata-> to the prince <0758-archon-> of the power <1849-
exousia-> of the air <0109-aer->, the spirit <4151- pneuma-> that
now <3568-nun-> worketh <1754-energeo-> in the children <5207-
huios-> of disobedience <0543-apeitheia->:

2:03 Among <1722-en-> whom <3739-hos-> also <2532- kai-> we all
<3956-pas-> had our conversation <0390-anastrepho-> in times
<4218-pote-> past in the lusts <1939-epithumia-> of our flesh
<4561-sarx->, fulfilling <4160-poieo-> the desires <2307-thelema-
> of the flesh <4561-sarx-> and of the mind <1271- dianoia->; and
were by nature <5449-phusis-> the children <5043-teknon- > of
wrath <3709-orge->, even <2532-kai-> as others < 3062-loipoy->.

2:4. But God <2316-theos->, who is rich <4145-plousios- > in
mercy <1656-eleos->, for his great <4183-polus-> love <0026-
agape-> wherewith <3739-hos-> he loved <0025-agapao- > us,

2:05 Even <2532-kai-> when we were dead <3498-nekros-> in sins
<3900-paraptoma->, hath quickened <4806-suzoopoieo-> us together
<4806-suzoopoieo-> with Christ <5547-Christos->, (by grace <5485-
charis-> ye are saved <4982-sozo->;)

2:06 And hath raised <4891-sunegeiro-> [us] up together < 4891-
sunegeiro->, and made <4776-sugkathizo-> [us] sit < 4776-
sugkathizo-> together <4776-sugkathizo-> in heavenly < 2032-
epouranios-> [places] in Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-
Iesous->:

2:07 That in the ages <0165-aion-> to come <1904- eperchomai-> he
might shew <1731-endeiknumi-> the exceeding <5235- huperballo->
riches <4149-ploutos-> of his grace <5485-charis-> in [his]
kindness <5544-chrestotes-> toward <1909-epi-> us through <1722-
en-> Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-Iesous->.

2:08 For by grace <5485-charis-> are ye saved <4982-sozo- >
through <1223-dia-> faith <4102-pistis->; and that not of
yourselves <5216-humon->: [it is] the gift <1435-doron- > of God
<2316-theos->:

2:09 Not of works <2041-ergon->, lest <3361-me-> any <5100-tis->
man should boast <2744-kauchaomai->.

2:10 For we are his workmanship <4161-poiema->, created < 2936-
ktizo-> in Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-Iesous- > unto
good <0018-agathos-> works <2041-ergon->, which < 3739-hos-> God
<2316-theos-> hath before <4282-proetoimazo-> ordained <4282-
proetoimazo-> that we should walk <4043-peripateo-> in them.

2:11. Wherefore <1352-dio-> remember <3421-mnemoneuo-> , that ye
[being] in time <4218-pote-> past Gentiles <1484-ethnos- > in the
flesh <4561-sarx->, who <3588-ho-> are called < 3004-lego->
Uncircumcision <0203-akrobustia-> by that which <3588-ho- > is
called <3004-lego-> the Circumcision <4061-peritome-> in the
flesh <4561-sarx-> made <5499-cheiropoietos-> by hands <5499-
cheiropoietos->;

2:12 That at <1722-en-> that time <2540-kairos-> ye were without
<5565-choris-> Christ <5547-Christos->, being aliens <0526-
apallotrioo-> from the commonwealth <4174-politeia-> of Israel
<2474-Israel->, and strangers <3581-xenos-> from the covenants
<1242-diatheke-> of promise <1860-epaggelia->, having <2192-echo-
> no <3361-me-> hope <1680-elpis->, and without <0112-atheos->
God <0112-atheos-> in the world <2889-kosmos->:

2:13 But now <3570-nuni-> in Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-
Iesous-> ye who <3739-hos-> sometimes <4218-pote-> were far
<3112-makran-> off <3112-makran-> are made <1096- ginomai-> nigh
<1451-eggus-> by the blood <0129-haima-> of Christ <5547-
Christos->.

2:14. For he is our peace <1515-eirene->, who <3739-hos- > hath
made <4160-poieo-> both <0297-amphoteros-> one < 1520-heis->, and
hath broken <3089-luo-> down the middle <3320- mesotoichon-> wall
of partition <5418-phragmos-> [between us];

2:15 Having abolished <2673-katargeo-> in his flesh < 4561-sarx->
the enmity <2189-echthra->, [even] the law <3551-nomos- > of
commandments <1785-entole-> [contained] in ordinances < 1378-
dogma->; for to make <2936-ktizo-> in himself <1438- heautou-> of
twain <1417-duo-> one <1520-heis-> new <2537- kainos-> man <0444-
anthropos->, [so] making <4160-poieo-> peace <1515- eirene->;

2:16 And that he might reconcile <0604-apokatallasso-> both
<0297-amphoteros-> unto God <2316-theos-> in one < 1520-heis->
body <4983-soma-> by the cross <4716-stauros->, having slain
<0615-apokteino-> the enmity <2189-echthra-> thereby <0846-autos-
>:

2:17 And came <2064-erchomai-> and preached <2097- euaggelizo->
peace <1515-eirene-> to you which <3588-ho-> were afar <3112-
makran-> off, and to them that were nigh <1451-eggus->.

2:18 For through <1223-dia-> him we both <0297- amphoteros-> have
<2192-echo-> access <4318-prosagoge-> by one <1520- heis-> Spirit
<4151-pneuma-> unto the Father <3962-pater->.

2:19 Now <3767-oun-> therefore <0686-ara-> ye are no <3765-
ouketi-> more <3765-ouketi-> strangers <3581-xenos- > and
foreigners <3941-paroikos->, but fellowcitizens <4847- sumpolites-
> with the saints <0040-hagios->, and of the household <3609-
oikeios-> of God <2316-theos->;

2:20 And are built <2026-epoikodomeo-> upon the foundation <2310-
themelios-> of the apostles <0652-apostolos-> and prophets <4396-
prophetes->, Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547- Christos->
himself <0848-hautou-> being <5607-on-> the chief < 0204-
akrogoniaios-> corner <0204-akrogoniaios-> [stone];

2:21 In whom <3739-hos-> all <3956-pas-> the building <3619-
oikodome-> fitly <4883-sunarmologeo-> framed <4883- sunarmologeo-
> together <4883-sunarmologeo-> groweth <0837-auzano- > unto an
holy <0040-hagios-> temple <3485-naos-> in the Lord <2962-kurios-
>:

2:22 In whom <3739-hos-> ye also <2532-kai-> are builded <4925-
sunoikodomeo-> together <4925-sunoikodomeo-> for an habitation
<2732-katoiketerion-> of God <2316-theos-> through <1722-en->
the Spirit <4151-pneuma->.

3:1. For this <5127-toutou-> cause <5484-charin-> I Paul <3972-
Paulos->, the prisoner <1198-desmios-> of Jesus <2424- Iesous->
Christ <5547-Christos-> for you Gentiles <1484-ethnos- >,

3:02 If <1489-eige-> ye have heard <0191-akouo-> of the
dispensation <3622-oikonomia-> of the grace <5485-charis- > of
God <2316-theos-> which <3588-ho-> is given <1325- didomi-> me to
you-ward <5209-humas->:

3:03 How that by revelation <0602-apokalupsis-> he made < 1107-
gnorizo-> known <1107-gnorizo-> unto me the mystery < 3466-
musterion->; (as I wrote <4270-prographo-> afore < 4270-prographo-
> in few <3641-oligos-> words,

3:04 Whereby <3739-hos->, when ye read <0314-anaginosko- >, ye
may <1410-dunamai-> understand <3539-noieo-> my knowledge <4907-
sunesis-> in the mystery <3466-musterion-> of Christ < 5547-
Christos->)

3:05 Which <3739-hos-> in other <2087-heteros-> ages <1074-genea-
> was not made <1107-gnorizo-> known <1107-gnorizo- > unto the
sons <5207-huios-> of men <0444-anthropos->, as it is now <3568-
nun-> revealed <0601-apokalupto-> unto his holy <0040- hagios->
apostles <0652-apostolos-> and prophets <4396-prophetes- > by the
Spirit <4151-pneuma->;

3:06 That the Gentiles <1484-ethnos-> should be fellowheirs
<4789-sugkleronomos->, and of the same <4954-sussomos- > body
<4954-sussomos->, and partakers <4830-summetochos-> of his
promise <1860-epaggelia-> in Christ <5547-Christos-> by the
gospel <2098-euaggelion->:

3:07 Whereof <3739-hos-> I was made <1096-ginomai-> a minister
<1249-diakonos->, according <2596-kata-> to the gift <1431-dorea-
> of the grace <5485-charis-> of God <2316-theos-> given <1325-
didomi-> unto me by the effectual <1753-energeia-> working <1753-
energeia-> of his power <1411-dunamis->.

3:08 Unto me, who am less <1647-elachistoteros-> than the least
<1647-elachistoteros-> of all <3956-pas-> saints < 0040-hagios->,
is this <3778-houtos-> grace <5485-charis-> given < 1325-didomi->,
that I should preach <2097-euaggelizo-> among <1722-en- > the
Gentiles <1484-ethnos-> the unsearchable <0421- anexichniastos->
riches <4149-ploutos-> of Christ <5547-Christos->;

3:09 And to make <5461-photizo-> all <3956-pas-> [men] see <5461-
photizo-> what <5101-tis-> [is] the fellowship <2842- koinonia->
of the mystery <3466-musterion->, which <3588-ho-> from the
beginning of the world <0165-aion-> hath been hid <0613-
apokrupto-> in God <2316-theos->, who <3588-ho-> created <2936-
ktizo-> all <3956-pas-> things by Jesus <2424-Iesous- > Christ
<5547-Christos->:

3:10 To the intent <2443-hina-> that now <3568-nun-> unto the
principalities <0746-arche-> and powers <1849-exousia- > in
heavenly <2032-epouranios-> [places] might be known < 1107-
gnorizo-> by the church <1577-ekklesia-> the manifold <4182-
polupoikilos-> wisdom <4678-sophia-> of God <2316- theos->,

3:11 According <2596-kata-> to the eternal <0165-aion- > purpose
<4286-prothesis-> which <3739-hos-> he purposed < 4160-poieo-> in
Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> our Lord <2962-
kurios->:

3:12 In whom <3739-hos-> we have <2192-echo-> boldness <3954-
parrhesia-> and access <4318-prosagoge-> with confidence <4006-
pepoithesis-> by the faith <4102-pistis-> of him.

3:13 Wherefore <1352-dio-> I desire <0154-aiteo-> that ye faint
<1573-ekkakeo-> not at <1722-en-> my tribulations < 2347-thlipsis-
> for you, which <3748-hostis-> is your glory <1391- doxa->.

3:14. For this <5127-toutou-> cause <5484-charin-> I bow <2578-
kampto-> my knees <1119-gonu-> unto the Father <3962- pater-> of
our Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-
Christos->,

3:15 Of whom <3739-hos-> the whole <3956-pas-> family <3965-
patria-> in heaven <3772-ouranos-> and earth <1093-ge- > is named
<3687-onomazo->,

3:16 That he would grant <1325-didomi-> you, according < 2596-
kata-> to the riches <4149-ploutos-> of his glory < 1391-doxa->,
to be strengthened <2901-krataioo-> with might <1411- dunamis->
by his Spirit <4151-pneuma-> in the inner <2080-eso-> man <0444-
anthropos->;

3:17 That Christ <5547-Christos-> may dwell <2730- katoikeo-> in
your <5216-humon-> hearts <2588-kardia-> by faith < 4102-pistis->;
that ye, being rooted <4492-rhizoo-> and grounded <2311-
themelioo-> in love <0026-agape->,

3:18 May be able <1840-exischuo-> to comprehend <2638-
katalambano-> with all <3956-pas-> saints <0040- hagios-> what
<5101-tis-> [is] the breadth <4114-platos->, and length <3372-
mekos->, and depth <0899-bathos->, and height <5311- hupsos->;

3:19 And to know <1097-ginosko-> the love <0026-agape- > of
Christ <5547-Christos->, which passeth <5235-huperballo- >
knowledge <1108-gnosis->, that ye might be filled <4137- pleroo->
with all <3956-pas-> the fulness <4138-pleroma-> of God <2316-
theos->.

3:20 Now <1161-de-> unto him that is able <1410-dunamai- > to do
<4160-poieo-> exceeding <5228-huper-> abundantly < 4053-perissos-
> above <5228-huper-> all <3956-pas-> that we ask <0154-aiteo->
or <2228-e-> think <3539-noieo->, according <2596- kata-> to the
power <1411-dunamis-> that worketh <1754-energeo-> in us,

3:21 Unto him [be] glory <1391-doxa-> in the church < 1577-
ekklesia-> by Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424- Iesous->
throughout <1519-eis-> all <3956-pas-> ages <1074- genea->, world
<0165-aion-> without end <0165-aion->. Amen <0281- amen->.

4:1. I therefore <3767-oun->, the prisoner <1198-desmios- > of
the Lord <2962-kurios->, beseech <3870-parakaleo-> you that ye
walk <4043-peripateo-> worthy <0516-axios-> of the vocation
<2821-klesis-> wherewith <3739-hos-> ye are called <2564-kaleo->,

4:2. With all <3956-pas-> lowliness <5012- tapeinophrosune-> and
meekness <4236-praiotes->, with longsuffering <3115- makrothumia-
>, forbearing <0430-anechomai-> one <0240-allelon-> another
<0240-allelon-> in love <0026-agape->;

4:03 Endeavouring <4704-spoudazo-> to keep <5083-tereo- > the
unity <1775-henotes-> of the Spirit <4151-pneuma-> in the bond
<4886-sundesmos-> of peace <1515-eirene->.

4:04 [There is] one <1520-heis-> body <4983-soma->, and one
<1520-heis-> Spirit <4151-pneuma->, even <2532-kai- > as ye are
called <2564-kaleo-> in one <3391-mia-> hope <1680- elpis-> of
your <5216-humon-> calling <2821-klesis->;

4:05 One <1520-heis-> Lord <2962-kurios->, one < 1520-heis->
faith <4102-pistis->, one <3391-mia-> baptism < 0908-baptisma->,

4:06 One <1520-heis-> God <2316-theos-> and Father <3962-pater->
of all <3956-pas->, who <3588-ho-> [is] above < 1909-epi-> all
<3956-pas->, and through <1223-dia-> all <3956-pas- >, and in you
all <3956-pas->.

4:07 But unto every <1538-hekastos-> one <1520-heis-> of us is
given <1325-didomi-> grace <5485-charis-> according <2596-kata->
to the measure <3358-metron-> of the gift <1431-dorea- > of
Christ <5547-Christos->.

4:08 Wherefore <1352-dio-> he saith <3004-lego->, When he
ascended <0305-anabaino-> up on <5311-hupsos-> high <5311-hupsos-
>, he led <0162-aichmaloteuo-> captivity <0161- aichmalosia->
captive <0162-aichmaloteuo->, and gave <1325-didomi-> gifts
<1390-doma-> unto men <0444-anthropos->.

4:09 (Now that he ascended <0305-anabaino->, what <5101- tis-> is
it but that he also <2532-kai-> descended <2597- katabaino->
first <4412-proton-> into <1519-eis-> the lower < 2737-katoteros-
> parts <3313-meros-> of the earth <1093-ge->?

4:10 He that descended <2597-katabaino-> is the same also <2532-
kai-> that ascended <0305-anabaino-> up far <5231- huperano->
above <5231-huperano-> all <3956-pas-> heavens < 3772-ouranos->,
that he might fill <4137-pleroo-> all <3956-pas-> things.)

4:11 And he gave <1325-didomi-> some <3588-ho->, apostles <0652-
apostolos->; and some <3588-ho->, prophets <4396- prophetes->;
and some <3588-ho->, evangelists <2099-euaggelistes->; and some
<3588-ho->, pastors <4166-poimen-> and teachers < 1320-didaskalos-
>;

4:12 For the perfecting <2677-katartismos-> of the saints <0040-
hagios->, for the work <2041-ergon-> of the ministry < 1248-
diakonia->, for the edifying <3619-oikodome-> of the body <4983-
soma-> of Christ <5547-Christos->:

4:13 Till <3360-mechri-> we all <3956-pas-> come < 2658-katantao-
> in the unity <1775-henotes-> of the faith <4102- pistis->, and
of the knowledge <1922-epignosis-> of the Son <5207- huios-> of
God <2316-theos->, unto a perfect <5046-teleios-> man <0435-aner-
>, unto the measure <3358-metron-> of the stature < 2244-helikia-
> of the fulness <4138-pleroma-> of Christ <5547- Christos->:

4:14 That we [henceforth <3063-loipon->] be no <3371- meketi->
more <2001-episucho-> children <3516-nepios->, tossed <2831-
kludonizomai-> to and fro <2831-kludonizomai->, and carried
<4064-periphero-> about <4064-periphero-> with every <3596-
hodoiporeo-> wind <0417-anemos-> of doctrine <1319- didaskalia->,
by the sleight <2940-kubeia-> of men <0444-anthropos-> , [and]
cunning craftiness <3834-panourgia->, whereby <4314-pros- > they
lie <3180-methodeia-> in wait <3180-methodeia-> to deceive <4106-
plane->;

4:15 But speaking <0226-aletheuo-> the truth <0226- aletheuo-> in
love <0026-agape->, may grow <0837-auzano-> up into <1519-eis->
him in all <3956-pas-> things, which <3739-hos-> is the head
<2776-kephale->, [even] Christ <5547-Christos->:

4:16 From whom <3739-hos-> the whole <3956-pas-> body <4983-soma-
> fitly <4883-sunarmologeo-> joined <4883- sunarmologeo->
together <4883-sunarmologeo-> and compacted <4822- sumbibazo-> by
that which every <3596-hodoiporeo-> joint <0860-haphe- >
supplieth <2024-epichoregia->, according <2596-kata-> to the
effectual <1753-energeia-> working <1753-energeia-> in the
measure <3358-metron-> of every <1538-hekastos-> part <3313-
meros->, maketh <4160-poieo-> increase <0838-auxesis- > of the
body <4983-soma-> unto the edifying <3619-oikodome-> of itself
<1438-heautou-> in love <0026-agape->.

4:17. This <5124-touto-> I say <3004-lego-> therefore <3767-oun-
>, and testify <3143-marturomai-> in the Lord <2962- kurios->,
that ye henceforth <3371-meketi-> walk <4043-peripateo- > not as
other <3062-loipoy-> Gentiles <1484-ethnos-> walk < 4043-
peripateo->, in the vanity <3153-mataiotes-> of their mind <3563-
nous->,

4:18 Having the understanding <1271-dianoia-> darkened < 4654-
skotizo->, being <5607-on-> alienated <0526- apallotrioo-> from
the life <2222-zoe-> of God <2316-theos-> through < 1223-dia->
the ignorance <0052-agnoia-> that is in them, because < 1223-dia-
> of the blindness <4457-porosis-> of their heart < 2588-kardia->:

4:19 Who <3748-hostis-> being past <0524-apalgeo-> feeling <0524-
apalgeo-> have given <3860-paradidomi-> themselves < 1438-heautou-
> over <3860-paradidomi-> unto lasciviousness <0766- aselgeia->,
to work <2039-ergasia-> all <3956-pas-> uncleanness <0167-
akatharsia-> with greediness <4124-pleonexia->.

4:20 But ye have not so <3779-houto-> learned <3129- manthano->
Christ <5547-Christos->;

4:21 If <1489-eige-> so <3779-houto-> be that ye have heard
<0191-akouo-> him, and have been taught <1321-didasko- > by him,
as the truth <0225-aletheia-> is in Jesus <2424-Iesous- >:

4:22 That ye put <0659-apotithemi-> off <0659-apotithemi- >
concerning <2596-kata-> the former <4387-proteros-> conversation
<0391-anastrophe-> the old <3820-palaios-> man < 0444-anthropos->,
which <3588-ho-> is corrupt <5351-phtheiro-> according <2596-
kata-> to the deceitful <0539-apate-> lusts <1939- epithumia->;

4:23 And be renewed <0365-ananeoo-> in the spirit <4151- pneuma->
of your <5216-humon-> mind <3563-nous->;

4:24 And that ye put <1746-enduo-> on <1746-enduo-> the new
<2537-kainos-> man <0444-anthropos->, which <3588- ho-> after
<2596-kata-> God <2316-theos-> is created <2936- ktizo-> in
righteousness <1343-dikaiosune-> and true <0225-aletheia- >
holiness <3742-hosiotes->.

4:25 Wherefore <1352-dio-> putting <0659-apotithemi-> away <0659-
apotithemi-> lying <5579-pseudos->, speak <2980-laleo- > every
<1538-hekastos-> man truth <0226-aletheuo-> with his neighbour
<4139-plesion->: for we are members <3196-melos-> one <0240-
allelon-> of another <0240-allelon->.

4:26 Be ye angry <3710-orgizo->, and sin <0264-hamartano- > not:
let not the sun <2246-helios-> go <1931-epiduo-> down <1931-
epiduo-> upon your <5216-humon-> wrath <3950- parorgismos->:

4:27 Neither <3383-mete-> give <1325-didomi-> place <5117-topos-
> to the devil <1228-diabolos->.

4:28 Let him that stole <2813-klepto-> steal <2813- klepto-> no
<3371-meketi-> more <2001-episucho->: but rather < 3123-mallon->
let him labour <2872-kopiao->, working <2038-ergazomai- > with
[his] hands <5495-cheir-> the thing which is good <0018- agathos-
>, that he may have <2192-echo-> to give <3330- metadidomi-> to
him that needeth <5532-chreia->.

4:29 Let no <3361-me-> corrupt <4550-sapros-> communication
<3056-logos-> proceed <1607-ekporeuomai-> out of your <5216-
humon-> mouth <4750-stoma->, but that which <1536-ei tis-> is
good <0018-agathos-> to the use <5532-chreia-> of edifying <3619-
oikodome->, that it may minister <1325-didomi-> grace <5485-
charis-> unto the hearers <0191-akouo->.

4:30 And grieve <3076-lupeo-> not the holy <0040-hagios- > Spirit
<4151-pneuma-> of God <2316-theos->, whereby <3739- hos-> ye are
sealed <4972-sphragizo-> unto the day <2250-hemera-> of
redemption <0629-apolutrosis->.

4:31 Let all <3956-pas-> bitterness <4088-pikria->, and wrath
<2372-thumos->, and anger <3709-orge->, and clamour <2906-krauge-
>, and evil <0988-blasphemia-> speaking <0988- blasphemia->, be
put <0142-airo-> away from you, with all <3956-pas-> malice
<2549-kakia->:

4:32 And be ye kind <5543-chrestos-> one <0240-allelon- > to
another <0240-allelon->, tenderhearted <2155- eusplagchnos->,
forgiving <5483-charizomai-> one <1438-heautou-> another <1438-
heautou->, even <2532-kai-> as God <2316-theos-> for Christ's
<5547-Christos-> sake <1722-en-> hath forgiven < 5483-charizomai-
> you.

5:1. Be ye therefore <3767-oun-> followers <3402-mimetes- > of
God <2316-theos->, as dear <0027-agapetos-> children <5043-
teknon->;

5:02 And walk <4043-peripateo-> in love <0026-agape->, as Christ
<5547-Christos-> also <2532-kai-> hath loved <0026- agape-> us,
and hath given <3860-paradidomi-> himself <1438-heautou- > for us
an offering <4376-prosphora-> and a sacrifice <2378- thusia-> to
God <2316-theos-> for a sweetsmelling <2175-euodia-> savour
<3744-osme->.

5:3. But fornication <4202-porneia->, and all <3956-pas- >
uncleanness <0167-akatharsia->, or <2228-e-> covetousness <4124-
pleonexia->, let it not be once <3366-mede-> named < 3687-onomazo-
> among <1722-en-> you, as becometh <4241-prepo-> saints <0040-
hagios->;

5:04 Neither <3756-ou-> filthiness <0151-aischrotes->, nor <2532-
kai-> foolish <3473-morologia-> talking <3473- morologia->, nor
<2228-e-> jesting <2160-eutrapelia->, which <3588- ho-> are not
convenient <0433-aneko->: but rather <3123-mallon-> giving of
thanks <2169-eucharistia->.

5:05 For this <5124-touto-> ye know <1097-ginosko->, that no
<3756-ou-> whoremonger <4205-pornos->, nor <2228-e- > unclean
<0169-akathartos-> person, nor <2228-e-> covetous < 4123-
pleonektes-> man, who <3739-hos-> is an idolater < 1496-
eidololatres->, hath <2192-echo-> any inheritance < 2817-
kleronomia-> in the kingdom <0932-basileia-> of Christ <5547-
Christos-> and of God <2316-theos->.

5:06 Let no <3367-medeis-> man <3367-medeis-> deceive <0538-
apatao-> you with vain <2756-kenos-> words <3056- logos->: for
because <1223-dia-> of these <5023-tauta-> things cometh <2064-
erchomai-> the wrath <3709-orge-> of God <2316-theos- > upon the
children <5207-huios-> of disobedience <0543-apeitheia- >.

5:07 Be not ye therefore <3767-oun-> partakers <4830- summetochos-
> with them.

5:08 For ye were sometimes <4218-pote-> darkness <4655- skotos->,
but now <3568-nun-> [are ye] light <5457-phos-> in the Lord
<2962-kurios->: walk <4043-peripateo-> as children <5043-teknon-
> of light <5457-phos->:

5:09 (For the fruit <2590-karpos-> of the Spirit <4151- pneuma->
[is] in all <3956-pas-> goodness <0019-agathosune-> and
righteousness <1343-dikaiosune-> and truth <0226- aletheuo->;)

5:10 Proving <1381-dokimazo-> what <5101-tis-> is acceptable
<2101-euarestos-> unto the Lord <2962-kurios->.

5:11 And have no <3361-me-> fellowship <4790-sugkoinoneo- > with
the unfruitful <0175-akarpos-> works <2041-ergon-> of darkness
<4655-skotos->, but rather <3123-mallon-> reprove < 1651-elegcho-
> [them].

5:12 For it is a shame <0149-aischron-> even <2532-kai- > to
speak <3004-lego-> of those <3588-ho-> things which are done
<1096-ginomai-> of them in secret <2931-kruphe->.

5:13 But all <3956-pas-> things that are reproved <1651- elegcho-
> are made <5319-phaneroo-> manifest <5319-phaneroo- > by the
light <5457-phos->: for whatsoever <3956-pas-> doth make <5319-
phaneroo-> manifest <5319-phaneroo-> is light <5457- phos->.

5:14 Wherefore <1352-dio-> he saith <3004-lego->, Awake <1453-
egeiro-> thou that sleepest <2518-katheudo->, and arise <0450-
anistemi-> from the dead <3498-nekros->, and Christ < 5547-
Christos-> shall give thee light <2017-epiphauo->.

5:15 See <0991-blepo-> then <3767-oun-> that ye walk <4043-
peripateo-> circumspectly <0199-akribos->, not as fools <0781-
asophos->, but as wise <4680-sophos--oneidismos->,

5:16 Redeeming <1805-exagorazo-> the time <2540-kairos- >,
because <3754-hoti-> the days <2250-hemera-> are evil <4190-
poneros->.

5:17 Wherefore <5124-touto-> be ye not unwise <0878- aphron->,
but understanding <4920-suniemi-> what <5101-tis-> the will
<2307-thelema-> of the Lord <2962-kurios-> [is].

5:18 And be not drunk <3182-methusko-> with wine <3631- oinos->,
wherein <3757-hou-> is excess <0810-asotia->; but be filled
<4137-pleroo-> with the Spirit <4151-pneuma->;

5:19 Speaking <2980-laleo-> to yourselves <1438-heautou- > in
psalms <5568> and hymns <5215-humnos-> and spiritual <4152-
pneumatikos-> songs <5603-oide->, singing <0103-aido- > and
making <5567-psallo-> melody <5567-psallo-> in your <5216-humon-
> heart <2588-kardia-> to the Lord <2962-kurios->;

5:20 Giving thanks <2168-eucharisteo-> always <3842- pantote->
for all <3956-pas-> things unto God <2316-theos-> and the Father
<3962-pater-> in the name <3686-onoma-> of our Lord <2962-kurios-
> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos->;

5:21. Submitting <5293-hupotasso-> yourselves one <0240- allelon-
> to another <0240-allelon-> in the fear <5401-phobos- > of God
<2316-theos->.

5:22 Wives <1135-gune->, submit <5293-hupotasso-> yourselves
unto your <3588-ho-> own <2398-idios-> husbands < 0435-aner->, as
unto the Lord <2962-kurios->.

5:23 For the husband <0435-aner-> is the head <2776- kephale-> of
the wife <1135-gune->, even <2532-kai-> as Christ < 5547-Christos-
> is the head <2776-kephale-> of the church <1577- ekklesia->:
and he is the saviour <4990-soter-> of the body <4983- soma->.

5:24 Therefore <0235-alla-> as the church <1577-ekklesia- > is
subject <5293-hupotasso-> unto Christ <5547-Christos-> , so <3779-
houto-> [let] the wives <1135-gune-> [be] to their own <2398-
idios-> husbands <0435-aner-> in every <3956-pas-> thing.

5:25 Husbands <0435-aner->, love <0025-agapao-> your <1438-
heautou-> wives <1135-gune->, even <2531-kathos-> as Christ
<5547-Christos-> also <2532-kai-> loved <0025- agapao-> the
church <1577-ekklesia->, and gave <3860-paradidomi-> himself
<1438-heautou-> for it;

5:26 That he might sanctify <0037-hagiazo-> and cleanse < 2511-
katharizo-> it with the washing <3067-loutron-> of water <5204-
hudor-> by the word <4487-rhema->,

5:27 That he might present <3936-paristemi-> it to himself <1438-
heautou-> a glorious <1741-endoxos-> church <1577- ekklesia->,
not having <2192-echo-> spot <4696-spilos->, or < 2228-e->
wrinkle <4512-rhutis->, or <2228-e-> any <5100-tis- > such <5108-
toioutos-> thing; but that it should be holy <0040-hagios- > and
without <0299-amomos-> blemish <0299-amomos->.

5:28 So <3779-houto-> ought <3784-opheilo-> men < 0435-aner-> to
love <0025-agapao-> their wives <1135-gune-> as their own <1438-
heautou-> bodies <4983-soma->. He that loveth <0025- agapao-> his
wife <1135-gune-> loveth <0025-agapao-> himself < 1438-heautou->.

5:29 For no <3762-oudeis-> man <3762-oudeis-> ever <4218-pote->
yet hated <3404-miseo-> his own <1438-heautou-> flesh <4561-sarx-
>; but nourisheth <1625-ektrepho-> and cherisheth < 2282-thalpo->
it, even <2532-kai-> as the Lord <2962-kurios-> the church <1577-
ekklesia->:

5:30 For we are members <3196-melos-> of his body <4983- soma->,
of his flesh <4561-sarx->, and of his bones <3747-osteon- >.

5:31 For this <5127-toutou-> cause <0873-aphorizo-> shall a man
<0444-anthropos-> leave <2641-kataleipo-> his father <3962-pater-
> and mother <3384-meter->, and shall be joined <4347- proskollao-
> unto his wife <1135-gune->, and they two <1417-duo- > shall be
one <3391-mia-> flesh <4561-sarx->.

5:32 This <5124-touto-> is a great <3173-megas-> mystery <3466-
musterion->: but I speak <3004-lego-> concerning < 1519-eis->
Christ <5547-Christos-> and the church <1577-ekklesia- >.

5:33 Nevertheless <4133-plen-> let every <1520-heis-> one of you
in particular <1520-heis-> so <3779-houto-> love < 0025-agapao->
his wife <1135-gune-> even <5613-hos-> as himself < 1438-heautou-
>; and the wife <1135-gune-> [see] that she reverence <5399-
phobeo-> [her] husband <0435-aner->.

6:1. Children <5043-teknon->, obey <5219-hupakouo-> your <5216-
humon-> parents <1118-goneus-> in the Lord <2962- kurios->: for
this <5124-touto-> is right <1342-dikaios->.

6:02 Honour <5091-timao-> thy father <3962-pater-> and mother
<3384-meter->; (which <3748-hostis-> is the first < 4413-protos->
commandment <1785-entole-> with promise <1860-epaggelia- >;)

6:03 That it may be well <2095-eu-> with thee, and thou mayest
live <3118-makrochronios-> long <2118-euthutes-> on <1909-epi->
the earth <1093-ge->.

6:04 And, ye fathers <3962-pater->, provoke <3949- parorgizo->
not your <5216-humon-> children <5043-teknon-> to wrath <3949-
parorgizo->: but bring <1625-ektrepho-> them up in the nurture
<3809-paideia-> and admonition <3559-nouthesia-> of the Lord
<2962-kurios->.

6:05 Servants <1401-doulos->, be obedient <5219-hupakouo- > to
them that are [your] masters <2962-kurios-> according < 2596-kata-
> to the flesh <4561-sarx->, with fear <5401-phobos- > and
trembling <5156-tromos->, in singleness <0572-haplotes- > of your
<5216-humon-> heart <2588-kardia->, as unto Christ <5547-
Christos->;

6:06 Not with eyeservice <3787-ophthalmodouleia->, as
menpleasers <0441-anthropareskos->; but as the servants < 1401-
doulos-> of Christ <5547-Christos->, doing <4160- poieo-> the
will <2307-thelema-> of God <2316-theos-> from the heart <5590-
psuche->;

6:07 With good <2133-eunoia-> will <2133-eunoia-> doing <1398-
douleuo-> service <1398-douleuo->, as to the Lord < 2962-kurios->,
and not to men <0444-anthropos->:

6:08 Knowing <1492-eido-> that whatsoever <5100-tis-> good <0018-
agathos-> thing any <1538-hekastos-> man doeth <4160- poieo->,
the same <3778-houtos-> shall he receive <2865-komizo- > of the
Lord <2962-kurios->, whether <1535-eite-> [he be] bond <1401-
doulos-> or <1535-eite-> free <1658-eleutheros->.

6:09 And, ye masters <2962-kurios->, do <4160-poieo-> the same
<0846-autos-> things unto them, forbearing <0447-aniemi- >
threatening <0547-apeile->: knowing <1492-eido-> that your <5216-
humon-> Master <2962-kurios-> also <2532-kai-> is in heaven
<3772-ouranos->; neither <3756-ou-> is there respect <3382-meros-
> of persons <4382-prosopolepsia-> with him.

6:10. Finally <3063-loipon->, my brethren <0080-adephos- >, be
strong <1743-endunamoo-> in the Lord <2962-kurios->, and in the
power <2904-kratos-> of his might <2479-ischus->.

6:11 Put <1746-enduo-> on <1746-enduo-> the whole armour <3833-
panoplia-> of God <2316-theos->, that ye may be able < 1410-
dunamai-> to stand <2476-histemi-> against <4314-pros- > the
wiles <3180-methodeia-> of the devil <1228-diabolos->.

6:12 For we wrestle <3823-pale-> not against <4314-pros- > flesh
<4561-sarx-> and blood <0129-haima->, but against < 4314-pros->
principalities <0746-arche->, against <4314-pros-> powers <1849-
exousia->, against <4314-pros-> the rulers <2888- kosmokrator->
of the darkness <4655-skotos-> of this <5127-toutou-> world
<0165-aion->, against <4314-pros-> spiritual <4152- pneumatikos->
wickedness <4189-poneria-> in high <2032-epouranios-> [places].

6:13 Wherefore <5124-touto-> take <0353-analambano-> unto you
the whole armour <3833-panoplia-> of God <2316-theos-> , that ye
may be able <1410-dunamai-> to withstand <0436- anthistemi-> in
the evil <4190-poneros-> day <2250-hemera->, and having done
<2716-katergazomai-> all <0537-hapas->, to stand < 2476-histemi->.

6:14 Stand <2476-histemi-> therefore <3767-oun->, having your
<5216-humon-> loins <3751-osphus-> girt <4024- perizonnumi->
about <4024-perizonnumi-> with truth <0226-aletheuo->, and
having <1746-enduo-> on <1746-enduo-> the breastplate <2382-
thorax-> of righteousness <1343-dikaiosune->;

6:15 And your <3588-ho-> feet <4228-pous-> shod < 5265-hupodeo->
with the preparation <2091-hetoimasia-> of the gospel < 2098-
euaggelion-> of peace <1515-eirene->;

6:16 Above <1909-epi-> all <3956-pas->, taking < 0353-analambano-
> the shield <2375-thureos-> of faith <4102-pistis- >, wherewith
<3739-hos-> ye shall be able <1410-dunamai-> to quench <4570-
sbennumi-> all <3956-pas-> the fiery <4448-puroo-> darts <0956-
belos-> of the wicked <4190-poneros->.

6:17 And take <1209-dechomai-> the helmet <4030- perikephalaia->
of salvation <4992-soterion->, and the sword <3162- machaira-> of
the Spirit <4151-pneuma->, which <3739-hos-> is the word <4487-
rhema-> of God <2316-theos->:

6:18 Praying <4336-proseuchomai-> always <2540-kairos- > with all
<3956-pas-> prayer <4335-proseuche-> and supplication <1162-
deesis-> in the Spirit <4151-pneuma->, and watching < 0069-
agrupneo-> thereunto <5124-touto-> with all <3956-pas- >
perseverance <4343-proskarteresis-> and supplication < 1162-
deesis-> for all <3956-pas-> saints <0040-hagios->;

6:19. And for me, that utterance <3056-logos-> may be given
<1325-didomi-> unto me, that I may open <0457-anoixis- > my mouth
<4750-stoma-> boldly <3954-parrhesia->, to make < 1107-gnorizo->
known <1107-gnorizo-> the mystery <3466-musterion-> of the
gospel <2098-euaggelion->,

6:20 For which <3739-hos-> I am an ambassador <4243- presbeuo->
in bonds <0254-halusis->: that therein <0846-autos-> I may speak
boldly <3955-parrhesiazomai->, as I ought <1163-dei-> to speak
<2980-laleo->.

6:21 But that ye also <2532-kai-> may know <1492-eido- > my
affairs <2596-kata->, [and] how <5101-tis-> I do < 4238-prasso->,
Tychicus <5190-Tuchikos->, a beloved <0027-agapetos-> brother
<0080-adephos-> and faithful <4103-pistos-> minister <1249-
diakonos-> in the Lord <2962-kurios->, shall make < 1107-gnorizo-
> known <1107-gnorizo-> to you all <3956-pas-> things:

6:22 Whom <3739-hos-> I have sent <3992-pempo-> unto you for the
same <0846-autos-> purpose, that ye might know <1097- ginosko->
our affairs <4012-peri->, and [that] he might comfort < 3870-
parakaleo-> your <5216-humon-> hearts <2588-kardia- >.

6:23 Peace <1515-eirene-> [be] to the brethren <0080- adephos->,
and love <0026-agape-> with faith <4102-pistis->, from God <2316-
theos-> the Father <3962-pater-> and the Lord <2962- kurios->
Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos->.

6:24 Grace <5485-charis-> [be] with all <3956-pas-> them that
love <0025-agapao-> our Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus < 2424-Iesous->
Christ <5547-Christos-> in sincerity <0861-aphthrsia-> . Amen
<0281-amen>
