IG1473 thereforeG3767, the prisonerG1198 ofG1722 the LordG2962, beseechG3870 youG5209 that ye walkG4043 worthyG516 of the vocationG2821 wherewithG3739 ye are calledG2564, {of the Lord: or, in the Lord}
WithG3326 allG3956 lowlinessG5012 andG2532 meeknessG4236, withG3326 longsufferingG3115, forbearingG430 one anotherG240 inG1722 loveG26;
EndeavouringG4704 to keepG5083 the unityG1775 of the SpiritG4151 inG1722 the bondG4886 of peaceG1515.
There is oneG1520 bodyG4983, andG2532 oneG1520 SpiritG4151, even asG2531+G2532 ye are calledG2564 inG1722 oneG3391 hopeG1680 of yourG5216 callingG2821;
OneG1520 LordG2962, oneG1520 faithG4102, oneG3391 baptismG908,
OneG1520 GodG2316 andG2532 FatherG3962 of allG3956, whoG3588 is aboveG1909 allG3956, andG2532 throughG1223 allG3956, andG2532 inG1722 youG5213 allG3956.
ButG1161 unto everyG1538 oneG1520 of usG2257 is givenG1325 graceG5485 according toG2596 the measureG3358 of the giftG1431 of ChristG5547.
WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004, When he ascendedG305 upG1519 on highG5311, he led captivityG162 captiveG161, andG2532 gaveG1325 giftsG1390 unto menG444. {captivity…: or, a multitude of captives}
(NowG1161 that he ascendedG305, whatG5101 is itG2076 butG1508 thatG3754 heG2597 alsoG2532 descendedG2597 firstG4412 intoG1519 the lowerG2737 partsG3313 of the earthG1093?
HeG846 that descendedG2597 isG2076 the same alsoG2532 that ascended upG305 far aboveG5231 allG3956 heavensG3772, thatG2443 he might fillG4137 all thingsG3956.) {fill: or, fulfil}
AndG2532 heG846 gaveG1325 someG3303, apostlesG652; andG1161 some, prophetsG4396; andG1161 some, evangelistsG2099; andG1161 some, pastorsG4166 andG2532 teachersG1320;
ForG4314 the perfectingG2677 of the saintsG40, forG1519 the workG2041 of the ministryG1248, forG1519 the edifyingG3619 of the bodyG4983 of ChristG5547:
TillG3360 we allG3956 comeG2658 inG1519 the unityG1775 of the faithG4102, andG2532 of the knowledgeG1922 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, untoG1519 a perfectG5046 manG435, untoG1519 the measureG3358 of the statureG2244 of the fulnessG4138 of ChristG5547: {in: or, into} {stature: or, age}
ThatG2443 we henceforth beG5600 no moreG3371 childrenG3516, tossed to and froG2831, andG2532 carried about withG4064 everyG3956 windG417 of doctrineG1319, byG1722 the sleightG2940 of menG444, and cunning craftinessG1722+G3834, wherebyG4314 they lie in waitG3180 to deceiveG4106;
ButG1161 speaking the truthG226 inG1722 loveG26, may grow upG837 intoG1519 himG846 in all thingsG3956, whichG3739 isG2076 the headG2776, even ChristG5547: {speaking…: or, being sincere}
FromG1537 whomG3739 the wholeG3956 bodyG4983 fitly joined togetherG4883 andG2532 compactedG4822 byG1223 that which everyG3956 jointG860 suppliethG2024, accordingG2596 to the effectual workingG1753 inG1722 the measureG3358 of everyG1538 partG1520+G3313, makethG4160 increaseG838 of the bodyG4983 untoG1519 the edifyingG3619 of itselfG1438 inG1722 loveG26.
ThisG5124 I sayG3004 thereforeG3767, andG2532 testifyG3143 inG1722 the LordG2962, that yeG5209 henceforthG3371 walkG4043 notG3371 asG2531+G2532 otherG3062 GentilesG1484 walkG4043, inG1722 the vanityG3153 of theirG846 mindG3563,
Having the understandingG1271 darkenedG4654, beingG5607 alienatedG526 from the lifeG2222 of GodG2316 throughG1223 the ignoranceG52 that isG5607 inG1722 themG846, becauseG1223 of the blindnessG4457 of theirG846 heartG2588: {blindness: or, hardness}
WhoG3748 being past feelingG524 have givenG3860 themselvesG1438 overG3860 unto lasciviousnessG766, toG1519 workG2039 allG3956 uncleannessG167 withG1722 greedinessG4124.
ButG1161 yeG5210 haveG3129 notG3756 soG3779 learnedG3129 ChristG5547;
If so be thatG1489 ye have heardG191 himG846, andG2532 have been taughtG1321 byG1722 himG846, asG2531 the truthG225 isG2076 inG1722 JesusG2424:
That yeG5209 put offG659 concerningG2596 the formerG4387 conversationG391 the oldG3820 manG444, whichG3588 is corruptG5351 accordingG2596 to the deceitfulG539 lustsG1939;
AndG1161 be renewedG365 in the spiritG4151 of yourG5216 mindG3563;
AndG2532 that ye put onG1746 the newG2537 manG444, whichG3588 afterG2596 GodG2316 is createdG2936 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 trueG225 holinessG3742. {true…: or, holiness of truth}
WhereforeG1352 putting awayG659 lyingG5579, speakG2980 every manG1538 truthG225 withG3326 hisG846 neighbourG4139: forG3754 we areG2070 membersG3196 one of anotherG240.
Be ye angryG3710, andG2532 sinG264 notG3361: letG1931 notG3361 the sunG2246 go downG1931 uponG1909 yourG5216 wrathG3950:
NeitherG3383 giveG1325 placeG5117 to the devilG1228.
LetG2813 him that stoleG2813 stealG2813 no moreG3371: butG1161 ratherG3123 let him labourG2872, workingG2038 with his handsG5495 the thing which is goodG18, thatG2443 he may haveG2192 to giveG3330 to him that needethG5532+G2192. {to give: or, to distribute}
LetG4550 noG3361+G3956 corruptG4550 communicationG3056 proceedG1607 out ofG1537 yourG5216 mouthG4750, butG235 that whichG1536 is goodG18 toG4314 the useG5532 of edifyingG3619, thatG2443 it may ministerG1325 graceG5485 unto the hearersG191. {to…: or, to edify profitably}
AndG2532 grieveG3076 notG3361 the holyG40 SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, wherebyG1722+G3739 ye are sealedG4972 untoG1519 the dayG2250 of redemptionG629.
LetG142 allG3956 bitternessG4088, andG2532 wrathG2372, andG2532 angerG3709, andG2532 clamourG2906, andG2532 evil speakingG988, be put awayG142 fromG575 youG5216, withG4862 allG3956 maliceG2549:
AndG1161 beG1096 ye kindG5543 one to anotherG1519+G240, tenderheartedG2155, forgivingG5483 one anotherG1438, even asG2531+G2532 GodG2316 forG1722 Christ'sG5547 sakeG1722 hath forgivenG5483 youG5213.
Querverweise zu Epheser 4,3 Eph 4,3
There is oneG1520 bodyG4983, andG2532 oneG1520 SpiritG4151, even asG2531+G2532 ye are calledG2564 inG1722 oneG3391 hopeG1680 of yourG5216 callingG2821;
A newG2537 commandmentG1785 I giveG1325 unto youG5213, ThatG2443 ye loveG25 one anotherG240; asG2531 I have lovedG25 youG5209, thatG2443 yeG5210 alsoG2532 loveG25 one anotherG240.
ThatG2443 they allG3956 may beG5600 oneG1520; asG2531 thouG4771, FatherG3962, art inG1722 meG1698, and IG2504 inG1722 theeG4671, thatG2443 theyG846 alsoG2532 may beG5600 oneG1520 inG1722 usG2254: thatG2443 the worldG2889 may believeG4100 thatG3754 thouG4771 hast sentG649 meG3165.
AndG2532 the gloryG1391 whichG3739 thou gavestG1325 meG3427 IG1473 have givenG1325 themG846; thatG2443 they may beG5600 oneG1520, even asG2531 weG2249 areG2070 oneG1520:
IG1473 inG1722 themG846, andG2532 thouG4771 inG1722 meG1698, thatG2443 they may beG5600 made perfectG5048 inG1519 oneG1520; andG2532 thatG2443 the worldG2889 may knowG1097 thatG3754 thouG4771 hast sentG649 meG3165, andG2532 hast lovedG25 themG846, asG2531 thou hast lovedG25 meG1691.
ForG1063 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 isG2076 notG3756 meatG1035 andG2532 drinkG4213; butG235 righteousnessG1343, andG2532 peaceG1515, andG2532 joyG5479 inG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
ForG1063 he that inG1722 these thingsG5125 servethG1398 ChristG5547 is acceptableG2101 to GodG2316, andG2532 approvedG1384 of menG444.
Let usG1377 thereforeG686+G3767 follow afterG1377 the things which make forG3588 peaceG1515, andG2532 things wherewithG1519 oneG240 may edifyG3619 anotherG240.
NowG1161 I beseechG3870 youG5209, brethrenG80, byG1223 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, thatG2443 yeG3004 allG3956 speakG3004 the same thingG846, andG2532 that there beG5600 noG3361 divisionsG4978 amongG1722 youG5213; butG1161 that ye beG5600 perfectly joined togetherG2675 inG1722 the sameG846 mindG3563 andG2532 inG1722 the sameG846 judgmentG1106. {divisions: Gr. schisms}
ForG1063 asG2509 the bodyG4983 isG2076 oneG1520, andG2532 hathG2192 manyG4183 membersG3196, andG1161 allG3956 the membersG3196 of that oneG1520 bodyG4983, beingG5607 manyG4183, areG2076 oneG1520 bodyG4983: soG3779 alsoG2532 is ChristG5547.
ForG1063+G2532 byG1722 oneG1520 SpiritG4151 areG907 weG2249 allG3956 baptizedG907 intoG1519 oneG1520 bodyG4983, whetherG1535 we be JewsG2453 orG1535 GentilesG1672, whetherG1535 we be bondG1401 orG1535 freeG1658; andG2532 have beenG4222 allG3956 made to drinkG4222 intoG1519 oneG1520 SpiritG4151. {Gentiles: Gr. Greeks}
FinallyG3063, brethrenG80, farewellG5463. Be perfectG2675, be of good comfortG3870, be of oneG846 mindG5426, live in peaceG1514; andG2532 the GodG2316 of loveG26 andG2532 peaceG1515 shall beG2071 withG3326 youG5216.
ForbearingG430 one anotherG240, andG2532 forgivingG5483 one anotherG1438, ifG1437 any manG5100 haveG2192 a quarrelG3437 againstG4314 anyG5100: even asG2531+G2532 ChristG5547 forgaveG5483 youG5213, soG3779 alsoG2532 do yeG5210. {quarrel: or, complaint}
AndG1161 aboveG1909 allG3956 these thingsG5125 put on charityG26, whichG3748 isG2076 the bondG4886 of perfectnessG5047.
AndG2532 letG1018 the peaceG1515 of GodG2316 ruleG1018 inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588, toG1519 the whichG3739 alsoG2532 ye are calledG2564 inG1722 oneG1520 bodyG4983; andG2532 be yeG1096 thankfulG2170.
AndG2532 to esteemG2233 themG846 veryG5228 highlyG1537+G4053 inG1722 loveG26 forG1223 theirG846 work's sakeG2041. And be at peaceG1514 amongG1722 yourselvesG1438.
FollowG1377 peaceG1515 withG3326 allG3956 men, andG2532 holinessG38, withoutG5565 whichG3739 no manG3762 shall seeG3700 the LordG2962:
