BeG1096 yeG3402 thereforeG3767 followersG3402 of GodG2316, asG5613 dearG27 childrenG5043;
AndG2532 walkG4043 inG1722 loveG26, asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 hath lovedG25 usG2248, andG2532 hath givenG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 usG2257 an offeringG4376 andG2532 a sacrificeG2378 to GodG2316 forG1519 a sweetsmellingG2175 savourG3744.
ButG2532 fornicationG4202, andG1161 allG3956 uncleannessG167, orG2228 covetousnessG4124, let itG3687 not be onceG3366 namedG3687 amongG1722 youG5213, asG2531 becomethG4241 saintsG40;
NeitherG2532 filthinessG151, norG2532 foolish talkingG3473, norG2228 jestingG2160, whichG3588 areG433 notG3756 convenientG433: butG235 ratherG3123 giving of thanksG2169.
ForG1063 thisG5124 ye knowG2075+G1097, thatG3754 noG3756+G3956 whoremongerG4205, norG2228 unclean personG169, norG2228 covetous manG4123, whoG3739 isG2076 an idolaterG1496, hathG2192 any inheritanceG2817 inG1722 the kingdomG932 of ChristG5547 andG2532 of GodG2316.
LetG538 no manG3367 deceiveG538 youG5209 with vainG2756 wordsG3056: forG1063 becauseG1223 of these thingsG5023 comethG2064 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 uponG1909 the childrenG5207 of disobedienceG543. {disobedience: or, unbelief}
BeG1096 notG3361 yeG1096 thereforeG3767 partakersG4830 with themG846.
ForG1063 ye wereG2258 sometimesG4218 darknessG4655, butG1161 nowG3568 are ye lightG5457 inG1722 the LordG2962: walkG4043 asG5613 childrenG5043 of lightG5457:
(ForG1063 the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG4151 is inG1722 allG3956 goodnessG19 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 truthG225;)
ProvingG1381 whatG5101 isG2076 acceptableG2101 unto the LordG2962.
AndG2532 haveG4790 noG3361 fellowshipG4790 with the unfruitfulG175 worksG2041 of darknessG4655, butG1161 ratherG3123+G2532 reproveG1651 them.
ForG1063 it isG2076 a shameG149 evenG2532 to speakG3004 of those thingsG2931 which are doneG1096 ofG5259 themG846 in secretG2931.
ButG1161 all thingsG3956 that are reprovedG1651 are made manifestG5319 byG5259 the lightG5457: forG1063 whatsoeverG3956 doth make manifestG5319 isG2076 lightG5457. {reproved: or, discovered}
WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004, Awake thouG1453 that sleepestG2518, andG2532 ariseG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 ChristG5547 shall giveG2017 theeG4671 lightG2017. {he: or, it}
SeeG991 thenG3767 thatG4459 ye walkG4043 circumspectlyG199, notG3361 asG5613 foolsG781, butG235 asG5613 wiseG4680,
RedeemingG1805 the timeG2540, becauseG3754 the daysG2250 areG1526 evilG4190.
WhereforeG1223+G5124 be yeG1096 notG3361 unwiseG878, butG235 understandingG4920 whatG5101 the willG2307 of the LordG2962 is.
AndG2532 beG3182 notG3361 drunkG3182 with wineG3631, whereinG1722+G3739 isG2076 excessG810; butG235 be filledG4137 withG1722 the SpiritG4151;
SpeakingG2980 to yourselvesG1438 in psalmsG5568 andG2532 hymnsG5215 andG2532 spiritualG4152 songsG5603, singingG103 andG2532 making melodyG5567 inG1722 yourG5216 heartG2588 to the LordG2962;
Giving thanksG2168 alwaysG3842 forG5228 all thingsG3956 unto GodG2316 andG2532 the FatherG3962 inG1722 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547;
Submitting yourselvesG5293 one to anotherG240 inG1722 the fearG5401 of GodG2316.
WivesG1135, submit yourselvesG5293 unto your ownG2398 husbandsG435, asG5613 unto the LordG2962.
ForG3754 the husbandG435 isG2076 the headG2776 of the wifeG1135, evenG2532 asG5613 ChristG5547 is the headG2776 of the churchG1577: andG2532 heG846 isG2076 the saviourG4990 of the bodyG4983.
ThereforeG235 asG5618 the churchG1577 is subjectG5293 unto ChristG5547, soG3779+G2532 let the wivesG1135 be to their ownG2398 husbandsG435 inG1722 every thingG3956.
HusbandsG435, loveG25 yourG1438 wivesG1135, even asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 the churchG1577, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 itG846;
ThatG2443 heG846 might sanctifyG37 and cleanse itG2511 with the washingG3067 of waterG5204 byG1722 the wordG4487,
ThatG2443 he might presentG3936 itG846 to himselfG1438 a gloriousG1741 churchG1577, notG3361 havingG2192 spotG4696, orG2228 wrinkleG4512, orG2228 anyG5100 such thingG5108; butG235 thatG2443 it should beG5600 holyG40 andG2532 without blemishG299.
SoG3779 oughtG3784 menG435 to loveG25 theirG1438 wivesG1135 asG5613 their ownG1438 bodiesG4983. He that lovethG25 hisG1438 wifeG1135 lovethG25 himselfG1438.
ForG1063 no manG3762 ever yetG4218 hatedG3404 his ownG1438 fleshG4561; butG235 nourishethG1625 andG2532 cherishethG2282 itG846, even asG2531+G2532 the LordG2962 the churchG1577:
ForG3754 we areG2070 membersG3196 of hisG846 bodyG4983, ofG1537 hisG846 fleshG4561, andG2532 ofG1537 hisG846 bonesG3747.
ForG473 this causeG5127 shallG2641 a manG444 leaveG2641 hisG846 fatherG3962 andG2532 motherG3384, andG2532 shall be joinedG4347 untoG4314 hisG846 wifeG1135, andG2532 they twoG1417 shall beG2071 oneG1519+G3391 fleshG4561.
ThisG5124 isG2076 a greatG3173 mysteryG3466: butG1161 IG1473 speakG3004 concerningG1519 ChristG5547 andG1519+G2532 the churchG1577.
NeverthelessG4133+G2532 letG25 every oneG1520+G1538 of youG5210 in particularG2596 soG3779 loveG25 hisG1438 wifeG1135 even asG5613 himselfG1438; andG1161 the wifeG1135 see thatG2443 she reverenceG5399 her husbandG435.

Wherefore now let the fearH6343 of the LORDH3068 be upon you; take heedH8104 and doH6213 it: for there is no iniquityH5766 with the LORDH3068 our GodH430, nor respectH4856 of personsH6440, nor takingH4727 of giftsH7810.
ThereforeG235 asG5618 the churchG1577 is subjectG5293 unto ChristG5547, soG3779+G2532 let the wivesG1135 be to their ownG2398 husbandsG435 inG1722 every thingG3956.
Also I saidH559, It is not goodH2896 thatH1697 ye doH6213: ought ye not to walkH3212 in the fearH3374 of our GodH430 because of the reproachH2781 of the heathenH1471 our enemiesH341?
And the angelH4397 of the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto her, ReturnH7725 to thy mistressH1404, and submitH6031 thyself under her handsH3027.
But the formerH7223 governorsH6346 that had been beforeH6440 me were chargeableH3513 unto the peopleH5971, and had takenH3947 of them breadH3899 and wineH3196, besideH310 fortyH705 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701; yea, evenH1571 their servantsH5288 bare ruleH7980 over the peopleH5971: but so didH6213 not I, becauseH6440 of the fearH3374 of GodH430.
And all the princesH8269, and the mighty menH1368, and all the sonsH1121 likewise of kingH4428 DavidH1732, submitted themselvesH5414+H3027+H8478 unto SolomonH8010 the kingH4428. {submitted…: Heb. gave the hand under Solomon}
My sonH1121, fearH3372 thou the LORDH3068 and the kingH4428: and meddleH6148 not with them that are given to changeH8138: {them…: Heb. changers}
Let everyG3956 soulG5590 be subjectG5293 unto the higherG5242 powersG1849. ForG1063 there isG2076 noG3756 powerG1849 butG1508 ofG575 GodG2316+G1161: the powersG1849 that beG5607 areG1526 ordainedG5021 ofG5259 GodG2316. {ordained: or, ordered}
Whosoever thereforeG5620 resistethG498 the powerG1849, resistethG436 the ordinanceG1296 of GodG2316: andG1161 they that resistG436 shall receiveG2983 to themselvesG1438 damnationG2917.
ForG1063 rulersG758 areG1526 notG3756 a terrorG5401 to goodG18 worksG2041, butG235 to the evilG2556. Wilt thouG2309 thenG1161 notG3361 be afraidG5399 of the powerG1849? doG4160 that which is goodG18, andG2532 thou shalt haveG2192 praiseG1868 ofG1537 the sameG846:
ForG1063 he isG2076 the ministerG1249 of GodG2316 to theeG4671 forG1519 goodG18. ButG1161 ifG1437 thou doG4160 that which is evilG2556, be afraidG5399; forG1063 he bearethG5409 notG3756 the swordG3162 in vainG1500: forG1063 he isG2076 the ministerG1249 of GodG2316, a revengerG1558 to execute wrathG3709 uponG1519 him that doethG4238 evilG2556.
WhereforeG1352 ye must needsG318 be subjectG5293, notG3756 onlyG3440 forG1223 wrathG3709, butG235 alsoG2532 for conscienceG4893 sakeG1223.
HavingG2192 thereforeG3767 theseG5025 promisesG1860, dearly belovedG27, let us cleanseG2511 ourselvesG1438 fromG575 allG3956 filthinessG3436 of the fleshG4561 andG2532 spiritG4151, perfectingG2005 holinessG42 inG1722 the fearG5401 of GodG2316.
ThatG2443 yeG5210 submit yourselvesG5293 unto suchG5108, andG2532 to every oneG3956 that helpethG4903 with us, andG2532 labourethG2872.
HonourG5091 allG3956 men. LoveG25 the brotherhoodG81. FearG5399 GodG2316. HonourG5091 the kingG935. {Honour all: or, Esteem all}
Let nothingG3367 be done throughG2596 strifeG2052 orG2228 vaingloryG2754; butG235 in lowliness of mindG5012 letG2233 eachG240 esteemG2233 otherG240 better thanG5242 themselvesG1438.
One that rulethG4291 wellG2573 his ownG2398 houseG3624, havingG2192 his childrenG5043 inG1722 subjectionG5292 withG3326 allG3956 gravityG4587;
ObeyG3982 them that have the ruleG2233 over youG5216, andG2532 submit yourselvesG5226: forG1063 theyG846 watchG69 forG5228 yourG5216 soulsG5590, asG5613 they that must giveG591 accountG3056, thatG2443 they may doG4160 itG5124 withG3326 joyG5479, andG2532 notG3361 with griefG4727: forG1063 thatG5124 is unprofitableG255 for youG5213. {have…: or, guide}
