1Be ye therefore followers of God as dear children:⇆ compare2And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savor.⇆ compare3But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;⇆ compare4Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.⇆ compare5For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.⇆ compare6Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.⇆ compare7Be not ye therefore partakers with them.⇆ compare8For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:⇆ compare9(For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)⇆ compare10Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.⇆ compare11And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.⇆ compare12For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.⇆ compare13But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.⇆ compare14Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.⇆ compare15See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,⇆ compare16Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.⇆ compare17Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.⇆ compare18And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;⇆ compare19Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;⇆ compare20Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;⇆ compare21Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.⇆ compare22Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.⇆ compare23For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the savior of the body.⇆ compare24Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.⇆ compare25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;⇆ compare26That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,⇆ compare27That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.⇆ compare28So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.⇆ compare29For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:⇆ compare30For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.⇆ compare31For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.⇆ compare32This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.⇆ compare33Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.⇆ compare
