The NAS Strong's Version
Book of Ephesians
Chapter 5
5:1 - [In Context|Original Greek] Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children;
5:2 - [In Context|Original Greek] and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma.
5:3 - [In Context|Original Greek] But immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints;
5:4 - [In Context|Original Greek] and there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.
5:5 - [In Context|Original Greek] For this you know with certainty, that no * immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
5:6 - [In Context|Original Greek] Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
5:7 - [In Context|Original Greek] Therefore do not be partakers with them;
5:8 - [In Context|Original Greek] for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light
5:9 - [In Context|Original Greek] (for the fruit of the Light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth ),
5:10 - [In Context|Original Greek] trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.
5:11 - [In Context|Original Greek] Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them;
5:12 - [In Context|Original Greek] for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.
5:13 - [In Context|Original Greek] But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.
5:14 - [In Context|Original Greek] For this reason it says, "Awake, sleeper, And arise from the dead, And Christ will shine on you."
5:15 - [In Context|Original Greek] Therefore be careful * how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,
5:16 - [In Context|Original Greek] making the most of your time, because the days are evil.
5:17 - [In Context|Original Greek] So * then * do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
5:18 - [In Context|Original Greek] And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,
5:19 - [In Context|Original Greek] speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord;
5:20 - [In Context|Original Greek] always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;
5:21 - [In Context|Original Greek] and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ.
5:22 - [In Context|Original Greek] Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
5:23 - [In Context|Original Greek] For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body.
5:24 - [In Context|Original Greek] But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything.
5:25 - [In Context|Original Greek] Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her,
5:26 - [In Context|Original Greek] so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,
5:27 - [In Context|Original Greek] that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless.
5:28 - [In Context|Original Greek] So husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself;
5:29 - [In Context|Original Greek] for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church,
5:30 - [In Context|Original Greek] because we are members of His body.
5:31 - [In Context|Original Greek] FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND SHALL BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME * ONE FLESH.
5:32 - [In Context|Original Greek] This mystery is great; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church.
5:33 - [In Context|Original Greek] Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband.
