1 Paul, an apostle of Ihsou Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Ihsou: 2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Ihsou Christ. 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Ihsou Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ; 4 According as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him in love; 5 Having predestined us to adoption by Ihsou Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, in which he made us free in the beloved; 7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace, 8 which He has made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Him, 10 that in the dispensation of the fullness of time He might sum up all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth; in Him, 11 in whom we have also been fulfilled, having been predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things after the counsel of His will, 12 to the end that we should be to the praise of His glory, the hope of Christ. 13 in whom you also heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, in whom also you also Having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 who is the pledge of our inheritance until the redemption of our possession, to the praise of his glory. 15 For this reason I also, after hearing of your faith in the Lord Ihsou and love for all the saints, 16 do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; 17 that the God of our Lord Ihsou Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him; 18 the eyes of your understanding being 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, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his grace in the sight of his saints, of his power to us who believe, according to the working of his mighty power 20 which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and sat down at his right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come. 22 And he put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23 which is his body, the fullness of him that filleth all in all.

EPHESIANS 2
1 And you were dead in trespasses and sins, 2 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now works in the sons of disobedience; 3 in which we all at one time conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest; 4 but God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in the He made us alive together with Christ, through whom you were saved, 6 and raised us up together, and seated us together in the heavenly places in Christ Ihsou, 7 so that in the ages to come he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in his kindness toward us in Christ Ihsou. 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God; 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Ihsou for good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. 11 For you remember that you who are called the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called the uncircumcision by the so-called circumcision in the flesh made by hands, 12 that at that time you were without Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Ihsou you who once were far off have been made near by the blood of Christ. 14 For he himself is our peace, who has made both one and has broken down the middle wall of partition, 15 having abolished in his flesh the enmity, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man from the two, thus making peace. 16 And that he might reconcile both to God in one body through the cross, having put to death the enmity in him. 17 And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and to those who were near. 18 For through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father. 19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Ihsou Christ himself being the cornerstone, 21 in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, 22 in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

1 For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Ihsou for you Gentiles, 2 have you heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which was given to me for you: 3 that by revelation he made known to me the mystery, as I wrote in brief, 4 so that when you read, you may understand my wisdom in the mystery of Christ; 5 which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; 6 that the Gentiles should be his heirs and fellow heirs and partakers of his promise in Christ, through the gospel, 7 of which I became a minister according to the gift of the grace of God given to me according to the working of his power. 8 To me, who am very little of all the saints, this grace was given, to preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, 9 and to bring to light to all what is the fellowship of the mystery, which has been hidden for ages in God, who created all things by Ihsou Christ, 10 so that now to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places the manifold wisdom of God might be made known through the church, 11 according to the eternal purpose which he accomplished in Christ Ihsou our Lord, 12 in whom we have boldness and access by faith in him. 13 Therefore I beg you not to be ashamed of my tribulations for you, which is your glory. 14 For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Ihsou Christ, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, 16 that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner man, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and depth and height, 19 and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be complete in all things. to all the fullness of God. 20 Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, 21 to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Ihsou throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

1 I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you have been called, 2 with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love, 3 endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in you all. 7 But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of the gift of Christ. 8 For he says, “When he ascended on high he led captivity captive, and gave orders to men.” 9 Now what does it mean that he ascended, but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He who descended is the same who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things. 11 And he gave some, apostles, and some, prophets, and some, evangelists, and some, pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ; 13 till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: 14 that we be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, by the cunning craftiness of cunning in deceitful scheming: 15 but speaking the truth in love, let us grow up in all things into him, who is the head, Christ, 16 from whom the whole body, joined and joined together by every supporting support, according to the working in the proper measure of each part, causes the growth of the body for the edification of itself in love. 17 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye walk no more, as other Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind, 18 being darkened in their understanding, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart: 19 who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness for covetousness. 20 But you did not learn Christ so, 21 if you heard him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Ihsou, 22 that you put off, concerning your former course of conduct, the old man, which is being corrupted according to the deceitful desires; 23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24 and that you put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and holiness of the truth. 25 Therefore, putting off falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor, for we are members one of another. 26 Be angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: 27 And give not place to the devil. 28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that hath need. 29 Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good for edification according to the need, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. 30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and blasphemy, be put away from you,with all evil: 32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God also in Christ hath forgiven you.

EPHESIANS 5
1 Be imitators of God, as dear children. 2 And walk in love, just as Christ also loved us and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a fragrant aroma. 3 But fornication and all impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is fitting among saints. 4 Nor filthiness or foolish talking or obscene jesting, which are not appropriate, but rather giving of thanks. 5 For this you know, that no fornicator, or unclean person, or covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. 6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience. 7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them: 8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: 9 For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth: 10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord: 11 And have no fellowship with the works of darkness: but rather reprove them: 12 For it is a shame even to speak of the things which are done in secret by them. 13 But everything that is reproved is made manifest by the light; for everything that makes manifest is light. 14 For he says, “Arise, you who are dead, and rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.” 15 See then that you walk carefully, not as unwise but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. 18 And do not get drunk with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit, 19 speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, 20 giving thanks always for everything in the name of our Lord Ihsou Christ to God and the Father, 21 being subject to one another in the fear of God. 22 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord, 23 for the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church, he being the savior of the body. 24 But as the church is subject to Christ, so let wives also be to their husbands in everything. 25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave himself up for it, 26 that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 that he might present the church to himself in splendor, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. 28 So husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. 30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh and of his bones. 31 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. 32 This is a great mystery; but I am speaking in reference to Christ and the church. 33 But you also, each one of you, so love his wife as himself, and the wife should fear her husband.

1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 2 Honor your father and mother, which is the first commandment in the gospel, 3 that it may go well with you, and that you may live long on the earth. 4 And you fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. 5 Servants, obey your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Christ; 6 not with eyeservice, as menpleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; 7 with good will serving, as to the Lord, and not to men; 8 knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free. 9 And you masters, do the same things to them, fearing, knowing that your Master is also in heaven, and there is no partiality with him. 10 Therefore, my brothers, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world rulers of the darkness of this age, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 and above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the flaming arrows of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 Praying at all times with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints: 19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth in proclamation, to make known the mystery of the gospel: 20 For which I also preach in chains, that in him I may be made known, as he seeth me speak. 21 But that ye also may know my state, how I do, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known unto you all things; 22 Whom I have sent unto you for this very purpose, that ye might know our state, and that he might comfort your hearts. 23 Peace to the brethren, and love with faith, from God our Father and the Lord Ihsou Christ. 24 Grace be with all them that love our Lord Ihsou Christ in incorruption.
