+001:004 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, + that we would be holy and without blemish before him in love; +001:005 having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ + to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire, +001:006 to the praise of the glory of his grace, by which he freely + bestowed favor on us in the Beloved, +001:007 in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness + of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, +001:008 which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, +001:009 making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his + good pleasure which he purposed in him +001:010 to an administration of the fullness of the times, + to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens, + and the things on the earth, in him; +001:011 in whom also we were assigned an inheritance, having been + foreordained according to the purpose of him who works all + things after the counsel of his will; +001:012 to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, + we who had before hoped in Christ: +001:013 in whom you also, having heard the word of the truth, + the Good News of your salvation,--in whom, having also believed, + you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, +001:014 who is a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God's + own possession, to the praise of his glory. +001:015 For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus + which is among you, and the love which you have toward + all the saints, +001:016 don't cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you + in my prayers, +001:017 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, + may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the + knowledge of him; +001:018 having the eyes of your hearts{TR reads "understanding" + instead of "hearts"} enlightened, that you may know what is + the hope of his calling, and what are the riches of the glory + of his inheritance in the saints, +001:019 and what is the exceeding greatness of his power toward us + who believe, according to that working of the strength + of his might +001:020 which he worked in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, + and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly places, +001:021 far above all rule, and authority, and power, and dominion, + and every name that is named, not only in this age, + but also in that which is to come. +001:022 He put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him + to be head over all things for the assembly, +001:023 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all. +002:001 You were made alive when you were dead in transgressions and sins, +002:002 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, + according to the prince of the powers of the air, the spirit + who now works in the children of disobedience; +002:003 among whom we also all once lived in the lust of our flesh, + doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were + by nature children of wrath, even as the rest. +002:004 But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love with which + he loved us, +002:005 even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive + together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), +002:006 and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him + in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, +002:007 that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches + of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus; +002:008 for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not + of yourselves; it is the gift of God, +002:009 not of works, that no one would boast. +002:010 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, + which God prepared before that we would walk in them. +002:011 Therefore remember that once you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are + called "uncircumcision" by that which is called "circumcision," + (in the flesh, made by hands); +002:012 that you were at that time separate from Christ, alienated from + the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants + of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world. +002:013 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off are made + near in the blood of Christ. +002:014 For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle + wall of partition, +002:015 having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of + commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create + in himself one new man of the two, making peace; +002:016 and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, + having killed the hostility thereby. +002:017 He came and preached peace to you who were far off and to + those who were near. +002:018 For through him we both have our access in one Spirit + to the Father. +002:019 So then you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are + fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God, +002:020 being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, + Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone; +002:021 in whom the whole building, fitted together, grows into a holy + temple in the Lord; +002:022 in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God + in the Spirit. +003:001 For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus on + behalf of you Gentiles, +003:002 if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that + grace of God which was given me toward you; +003:003 how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, + as I wrote before in few words, +003:004 by which, when you read, you can perceive my understanding + in the mystery of Christ; +003:005 which in other generations was not made known to the children + of men, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles + and prophets in the Spirit; +003:006 that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body, + and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through + the Good News, +003:007 of which I was made a servant, according to the gift of that + grace of God which was given me according to the working + of his power. +003:008 To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, + to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, +003:009 and to make all men see what is the administration{TR + reads "fellowship" instead of "administration"} of the mystery + which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things + through Jesus Christ; +003:010 to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom + of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers + in the heavenly places, +003:011 according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in + Christ Jesus our Lord; +003:012 in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our + faith in him. +003:013 Therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles + for you, which are your glory. +003:014 For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our + Lord Jesus Christ, +003:015 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, +003:016 that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, + that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit + in the inward man; +003:017 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end + that you, being rooted and grounded in love, +003:018 may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is + the breadth and length and height and depth, +003:019 and to know Christ's love which surpasses knowledge, that you + may be filled with all the fullness of God. +003:020 Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all + that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, +003:021 to him be the glory in the assembly and in Christ Jesus to all + generations forever and ever. Amen. +004:001 I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily + of the calling with which you were called, +004:002 with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with + one another in love; +004:003 being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. +004:004 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as you also were called + in one hope of your calling; +004:005 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, +004:006 one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, + and in us all. +004:007 But to each one of us was the grace given according to the measure + of the gift of Christ. +004:008 Therefore he says, "When he ascended on high, he led + captivity captive, and gave gifts to men."{Psalm 68:18} +004:009 Now this, "He ascended," what is it but that he also first + descended into the lower parts of the earth? +004:010 He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all + the heavens, that he might fill all things. +004:011 He gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, + evangelists; and some, shepherds{or, pastors} and teachers; +004:012 for the perfecting of the saints, to the work of serving, + to the building up of the body of Christ; +004:013 until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of + the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full grown man, + to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; +004:014 that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried + about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, + in craftiness, after the wiles of error; +004:015 but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him, + who is the head, Christ; +004:016 from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through + that which every joint supplies, according to the working + in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase + to the building up of itself in love. +004:017 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you + no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles also walk, + in the futility of their mind, +004:018 being darkened in their understanding, alienated from + the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, + because of the hardening of their hearts; +004:019 who having become callous gave themselves up to lust, to work + all uncleanness with greediness. +004:020 But you did not learn Christ that way; +004:021 if indeed you heard him, and were taught in him, even as truth + is in Jesus: +004:022 that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, + the old man, that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit; +004:023 and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind, +004:024 and put on the new man, who in the likeness of God has been + created in righteousness and holiness of truth. +004:025 Therefore, putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with + his neighbor. For we are members of one another. +004:026 "Be angry, and don't sin."{Psalm 4:4} Don't let the sun go + down on your wrath, +004:027 neither give place to the devil. +004:028 Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, + working with his hands the thing that is good, that he may + have something to give to him who has need. +004:029 Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is + good for building up as the need may be, that it may give + grace to those who hear. +004:030 Don't grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed + for the day of redemption. +004:031 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, + be put away from you, with all malice. +004:032 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, + just as God also in Christ forgave you. +005:001 Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children. +005:002 Walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave + himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for + a sweet-smelling fragrance. +005:003 But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, + let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints; +005:004 nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are + not appropriate; but rather giving of thanks. +005:005 Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral person, + nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, + has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God. +005:006 Let no one deceive you with empty words. For because of these things, + the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience. +005:007 Therefore don't be partakers with them. +005:008 For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. + Walk as children of light, +005:009 for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and + righteousness and truth, +005:010 proving what is well pleasing to the Lord. +005:011 Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, + but rather even reprove them. +005:012 For the things which are done by them in secret, it is a shame + even to speak of. +005:013 But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, + for everything that reveals is light. +005:014 Therefore he says, "Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, + and Christ will shine on you." +005:015 Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, + but as wise; +005:016 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. +005:017 Therefore don't be foolish, but understand what the will + of the Lord is. +005:018 Don't be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be + filled with the Spirit, +005:019 speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; + singing, and singing praises in your heart to the Lord; +005:020 giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our + Lord Jesus Christ, to God, even the Father; +005:021 subjecting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ. +005:022 Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. +005:023 For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is + the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body. +005:024 But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives + also be to their own husbands in everything. +005:025 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, + and gave himself up for it; +005:026 that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing + of water with the word, +005:027 that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, + not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it + should be holy and without blemish. +005:028 Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their + own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself. +005:029 For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, + even as the Lord also does the assembly; +005:030 because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones. +005:031 "For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, + and will be joined to his wife. The two will become + one flesh."{Genesis 2:24} +005:032 This mystery is great, but I speak concerning Christ and + of the assembly. +005:033 Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; + and let the wife see that she respects her husband. +006:001 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. +006:002 "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment + with a promise: +006:003 "that it may be well with you, and you may live long on + the earth."{Deuteronomy 5:16} +006:004 You fathers, don't provoke your children to wrath, but nurture + them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. +006:005 Servants, be obedient to those who according to the flesh + are your masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness + of your heart, as to Christ; +006:006 not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men pleasers; + but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; +006:007 with good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men; +006:008 knowing that whatever good thing each one does, he will receive + the same again from the Lord, whether he is bound or free. +006:009 You masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening, + knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, + and there is no partiality with him. +006:010 Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might. +006:011 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand + against the wiles of the devil. +006:012 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against + the principalities, against the powers, against the world's + rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual + forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. +006:013 Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able + to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand. +006:014 Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around + your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, +006:015 and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the + Good News of peace; +006:016 above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will + be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one. +006:017 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, + which is the spoken word of God; +006:018 with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, + and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests + for all the saints: +006:019 on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in opening my mouth, + to make known with boldness the mystery of the Good News, +006:020 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may + speak boldly, as I ought to speak. +006:021 But that you also may know my affairs, how I am doing, Tychicus, + the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, + will make known to you all things; +006:022 whom I have sent to you for this very purpose, that you may + know our state, and that he may comfort your hearts. +006:023 Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God + the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. +006:024 Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with + incorruptible love.
