Ephesians 1

1. Paul <3972-Paulos->, an apostle <0652-apostolos->

of Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos-> by the will

<2307-thelema-> of God <2316-theos->, to the saints <0040-hagios-

> which <3588-ho-> are at <1722-en-> Ephesus <2181-Ephesos->,

and to the faithful <4103-pistos-> in Christ <5547-Christos->

Jesus <2424-Iesous->:

2 Grace <5485-charis-> [be] to you, and peace <1515-

eirene->, from God <2316-theos-> our Father <3962-pater->, and

[from] the Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-

Christos->.

3. Blessed <2128-eulogetos-> [be] the God <2316-theos-

> and Father <3962-pater-> of our Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus

<2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos->, who <3588-ho-> hath

blessed <2127-eulogeo-> us with all <3956-pas-> spiritual <4152-

pneumatikos-> blessings <2129-eulogia-> in heavenly <2032-

epouranios-> [places] in Christ <5547-Christos->:

4 According <2531-kathos-> as he hath chosen <1586-

eklegomai-> us in him before <4253-pro-> the foundation <2602-

katabole-> of the world <2889-kosmos->, that we should be holy

<0040-hagios-> and without <0299-amomos-> blame <0299-amomos->

before <2714-katenopion-> him in love <0026-agape->:

5 Having predestinated <4309-proorizo-> us unto the

adoption <5206-huiothesia-> of children <5206-huiothesia-> by

Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos-> to himself <0848-

hautou->, according <2596-kata-> to the good pleasure <2107-

eudokia-> of his will <2307-thelema->,

6 To the praise <1868-epainos-> of the glory <1391-

doxa-> of his grace <5485-charis->, wherein <3757-hou-> he hath

made <5487-charitoo-> us accepted <5487-charitoo-> in the

beloved <0025-agapao->.

7 In whom <3739-hos-> we have <2192-echo-> redemption

<0629-apolutrosis-> through <1223-dia-> his blood <0129-haima->,

the forgiveness <0859-aphesis-> of sins <3900-paraptoma->,

according <2596-kata-> to the riches <4149-ploutos-> of his

grace <5485-charis->;

8 Wherein <3757-hou-> he hath abounded <4052-

perisseuo-> toward <1519-eis-> us in all <3956-pas-> wisdom

<4678-sophia-> and prudence <5428-phronesis->;

9 Having made <1107-gnorizo-> known <1107-gnorizo->

unto us the mystery <3466-musterion-> of his will <2307-thelema-

>, according <2596-kata-> to his good pleasure <2107-eudokia->

which <3739-hos-> he hath purposed <4388-protithemai-> in

himself <0848-hautou->:

10 That in the dispensation <3622-oikonomia-> of the

fulness <4138-pleroma-> of times <2540-kairos-> he might gather

<0346-anakephalaiomai-> together <0346-anakephalaiomai-> in one

all <3956-pas-> things in Christ <5547-Christos->, both <5037-te-

> which <3588-ho-> are in heaven <3772-ouranos->, and which

<3588-ho-> are on <1909-epi-> earth <1093-ge->; [even] in him:

11 In whom <3739-hos-> also <2532-kai-> we have

obtained <2820-kleroo-> an inheritance <2820-kleroo->, being

predestinated <4309-proorizo-> according <2596-kata-> to the

purpose <4286-prothesis-> of him who worketh <1754-energeo-> all

<3956-pas-> things after <2596-kata-> the counsel <1012-boule->

of his own <0848-hautou-> will <2307-thelema->:

12 That we should be to the praise <1868-epainos-> of

his glory <1391-doxa->, who <3588-ho-> first <4276-proelpizo->

trusted <4276-proelpizo-> in Christ <5547-Christos->.

13 In whom <3739-hos-> ye also <2532-kai-> [trusted],

after that ye heard <0191-akouo-> the word <4487-rhema-> of

truth <0225-aletheia->, the gospel <2098-euaggelion-> of your

<5216-humon-> salvation <4991-soteria->: in whom <3739-hos->

also <2532-kai-> after that ye believed <4100-pisteuo->, ye were

sealed <4972-sphragizo-> with that holy <0040-hagios-> Spirit

<4151-pneuma-> of promise <1860-epaggelia->,

14 Which <3739-hos-> is the earnest <0728-arrhabon->

of our inheritance <2817-kleronomia-> until <1519-eis-> the

redemption <0629-apolutrosis-> of the purchased <4047-

peripoiesis-> possession <4047-peripoiesis->, unto the praise

<1868-epainos-> of his glory <1391-doxa->.

15. Wherefore <5124-touto-> I also <2504-kago->,

after I heard <0191-akouo-> of your <5209-humas-> faith <4102-

pistis-> in the Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous->, and

love <0026-agape-> unto all <3956-pas-> the saints <0040-hagios-

16 Cease <3973-pauo-> not to give thanks <2168-

eucharisteo-> for you, making <4160-poieo-> mention <3417-mneia-

> of you in my prayers <4335-proseuche->;

17 That the God <2316-theos-> of our Lord <2962-

kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos->, the

Father <3962-pater-> of glory <1391-doxa->, may give <1325-

didomi-> unto you the spirit <4151-pneuma-> of wisdom <4678-

sophia-> and revelation <0602-apokalupsis-> in the knowledge

<1922-epignosis-> of him:

18 The eyes <3788-ophthalmos-> of your <5216-humon->

understanding <1271-dianoia-> being enlightened <5461-photizo->;

that ye may know <1492-eido-> what <5101-tis-> is the hope <1680-

elpis-> of his calling <2821-klesis->, and what <5101-tis-> the

riches <4149-ploutos-> of the glory <1391-doxa-> of his

inheritance <2817-kleronomia-> in the saints <0040-hagios->,

19 And what <5101-tis-> [is] the exceeding <5235-

huperballo-> greatness <3174-megethos-> of his power <1411-

dunamis-> to us-ward <2248-hemas-> who <3588-ho-> believe <4100-

pisteuo->, according <2596-kata-> to the working <1753-energeia-

> of his mighty <2479-ischus-> power <2904-kratos->,

20 Which <3739-hos-> he wrought <1754-energeo-> in

Christ <5547-Christos->, when he raised <1453-egeiro-> him from

the dead <3498-nekros->, and set <2523-kathizo-> [him] at <1722-

en-> his own <0848-hautou-> right <1188-dexios-> hand in the

heavenly <2032-epouranios-> [places],

21 Far <5231-huperano-> above <5231-huperano-> all

<3956-pas-> principality <0746-arche->, and power <1849-exousia-

>, and might <1411-dunamis->, and dominion <2963-kuriotes->, and

every <3956-pas-> name <3686-onoma-> that is named <3687-onomazo-

>, not only <3440-monon-> in this <3588-ho-> world <0165-aion->,

but also <2532-kai-> in that which is to come <3195-mello->:

22 And hath put <5293-hupotasso-> all <3956-pas->

[things] under <5259-hupo-> his feet <4228-pous->, and gave

<1325-didomi-> him [to be] the head <2776-kephale-> over <5228-

huper-> all <3956-pas-> [things] to the church <1577-ekklesia->,

23 Which <3748-hostis-> is his body <4983-soma->, the

fulness <4138-pleroma-> of him that filleth <4137-pleroo-> all

<3956-pas-> in all <3956-pas->.

Ephesians 2

1. And you [hath he quickened], who were dead <3498-

nekros-> in trespasses <3900-paraptoma-> and sins <0266-hamartia-

2 Wherein <3757-hou-> in time <4218-pote-> past ye

walked <4043-peripateo-> according <2596-kata-> to the course

<0165-aion-> of this <5127-toutou-> world <2889-kosmos->,

according <2596-kata-> to the prince <0758-archon-> of the power

<1849-exousia-> of the air <0109-aer->, the spirit <4151-pneuma-

> that now <3568-nun-> worketh <1754-energeo-> in the children

<5207-huios-> of disobedience <0543-apeitheia->:

3 Among <1722-en-> whom <3739-hos-> also <2532-kai->

we all <3956-pas-> had our conversation <0390-anastrepho-> in

times <4218-pote-> past in the lusts <1939-epithumia-> of our

flesh <4561-sarx->, fulfilling <4160-poieo-> the desires <2307-

thelema-> of the flesh <4561-sarx-> and of the mind <1271-

dianoia->; and were by nature <5449-phusis-> the children <5043-

teknon-> of wrath <3709-orge->, even <2532-kai-> as others <3062-

loipoy->.

4. But God <2316-theos->, who is rich <4145-plousios-

> in mercy <1656-eleos->, for his great <4183-polus-> love <0026-

agape-> wherewith <3739-hos-> he loved <0025-agapao-> us,

5 Even <2532-kai-> when we were dead <3498-nekros->

in sins <3900-paraptoma->, hath quickened <4806-suzoopoieo-> us

together <4806-suzoopoieo-> with Christ <5547-Christos->, (by

grace <5485-charis-> ye are saved <4982-sozo->;)

6 And hath raised <4891-sunegeiro-> [us] up together

<4891-sunegeiro->, and made <4776-sugkathizo-> [us] sit <4776-

sugkathizo-> together <4776-sugkathizo-> in heavenly <2032-

epouranios-> [places] in Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-

Iesous->:

7 That in the ages <0165-aion-> to come <1904-

eperchomai-> he might shew <1731-endeiknumi-> the exceeding

<5235-huperballo-> riches <4149-ploutos-> of his grace <5485-

charis-> in [his] kindness <5544-chrestotes-> toward <1909-epi->

us through <1722-en-> Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-

8 For by grace <5485-charis-> are ye saved <4982-sozo-

> through <1223-dia-> faith <4102-pistis->; and that not of

yourselves <5216-humon->: [it is] the gift <1435-doron-> of God

<2316-theos->:

9 Not of works <2041-ergon->, lest <3361-me-> any

<5100-tis-> man should boast <2744-kauchaomai->.

10 For we are his workmanship <4161-poiema->, created

<2936-ktizo-> in Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-Iesous->

unto good <0018-agathos-> works <2041-ergon->, which <3739-hos->

God <2316-theos-> hath before <4282-proetoimazo-> ordained <4282-

proetoimazo-> that we should walk <4043-peripateo-> in them.

11. Wherefore <1352-dio-> remember <3421-mnemoneuo->,

that ye [being] in time <4218-pote-> past Gentiles <1484-ethnos-

> in the flesh <4561-sarx->, who <3588-ho-> are called <3004-

lego-> Uncircumcision <0203-akrobustia-> by that which <3588-ho-

> is called <3004-lego-> the Circumcision <4061-peritome-> in

the flesh <4561-sarx-> made <5499-cheiropoietos-> by hands <5499-

cheiropoietos->;

12 That at <1722-en-> that time <2540-kairos-> ye

were without <5565-choris-> Christ <5547-Christos->, being

aliens <0526-apallotrioo-> from the commonwealth <4174-politeia-

> of Israel <2474-Israel->, and strangers <3581-xenos-> from the

covenants <1242-diatheke-> of promise <1860-epaggelia->, having

<2192-echo-> no <3361-me-> hope <1680-elpis->, and without <0112-

atheos-> God <0112-atheos-> in the world <2889-kosmos->:

13 But now <3570-nuni-> in Christ <5547-Christos->

Jesus <2424-Iesous-> ye who <3739-hos-> sometimes <4218-pote->

were far <3112-makran-> off <3112-makran-> are made <1096-

ginomai-> nigh <1451-eggus-> by the blood <0129-haima-> of

Christ <5547-Christos->.

14. For he is our peace <1515-eirene->, who <3739-hos-

> hath made <4160-poieo-> both <0297-amphoteros-> one <1520-heis-

>, and hath broken <3089-luo-> down the middle <3320-mesotoichon-

> wall of partition <5418-phragmos-> [between us];

15 Having abolished <2673-katargeo-> in his flesh

<4561-sarx-> the enmity <2189-echthra->, [even] the law <3551-

nomos-> of commandments <1785-entole-> [contained] in ordinances

<1378-dogma->; for to make <2936-ktizo-> in himself <1438-

heautou-> of twain <1417-duo-> one <1520-heis-> new <2537-kainos-

> man <0444-anthropos->, [so] making <4160-poieo-> peace <1515-

eirene->;

16 And that he might reconcile <0604-apokatallasso->

both <0297-amphoteros-> unto God <2316-theos-> in one <1520-heis-

> body <4983-soma-> by the cross <4716-stauros->, having slain

<0615-apokteino-> the enmity <2189-echthra-> thereby <0846-autos-

17 And came <2064-erchomai-> and preached <2097-

euaggelizo-> peace <1515-eirene-> to you which <3588-ho-> were

afar <3112-makran-> off, and to them that were nigh <1451-eggus-

18 For through <1223-dia-> him we both <0297-

amphoteros-> have <2192-echo-> access <4318-prosagoge-> by one

<1520-heis-> Spirit <4151-pneuma-> unto the Father <3962-pater->.

19 Now <3767-oun-> therefore <0686-ara-> ye are no

<3765-ouketi-> more <3765-ouketi-> strangers <3581-xenos-> and

foreigners <3941-paroikos->, but fellowcitizens <4847-sumpolites-

> with the saints <0040-hagios->, and of the household <3609-

oikeios-> of God <2316-theos->;

20 And are built <2026-epoikodomeo-> upon the

foundation <2310-themelios-> of the apostles <0652-apostolos->

and prophets <4396-prophetes->, Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ

<5547-Christos-> himself <0848-hautou-> being <5607-on-> the

chief <0204-akrogoniaios-> corner <0204-akrogoniaios-> [stone];

21 In whom <3739-hos-> all <3956-pas-> the building

<3619-oikodome-> fitly <4883-sunarmologeo-> framed <4883-

sunarmologeo-> together <4883-sunarmologeo-> groweth <0837-

auzano-> unto an holy <0040-hagios-> temple <3485-naos-> in the

Lord <2962-kurios->:

22 In whom <3739-hos-> ye also <2532-kai-> are

builded <4925-sunoikodomeo-> together <4925-sunoikodomeo-> for

an habitation <2732-katoiketerion-> of God <2316-theos-> through

<1722-en-> the Spirit <4151-pneuma->.

Ephesians 3

1. For this <5127-toutou-> cause <5484-charin-> I

Paul <3972-Paulos->, the prisoner <1198-desmios-> of Jesus <2424-

Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos-> for you Gentiles <1484-ethnos->,

2 If <1489-eige-> ye have heard <0191-akouo-> of the

dispensation <3622-oikonomia-> of the grace <5485-charis-> of

God <2316-theos-> which <3588-ho-> is given <1325-didomi-> me to

you-ward <5209-humas->:

3 How that by revelation <0602-apokalupsis-> he made

<1107-gnorizo-> known <1107-gnorizo-> unto me the mystery <3466-

musterion->; (as I wrote <4270-prographo-> afore <4270-prographo-

> in few <3641-oligos-> words,

4 Whereby <3739-hos->, when ye read <0314-anaginosko-

>, ye may <1410-dunamai-> understand <3539-noieo-> my knowledge

<4907-sunesis-> in the mystery <3466-musterion-> of Christ <5547-

Christos->)

5 Which <3739-hos-> in other <2087-heteros-> ages

<1074-genea-> was not made <1107-gnorizo-> known <1107-gnorizo->

unto the sons <5207-huios-> of men <0444-anthropos->, as it is

now <3568-nun-> revealed <0601-apokalupto-> unto his holy <0040-

hagios-> apostles <0652-apostolos-> and prophets <4396-prophetes-

> by the Spirit <4151-pneuma->;

6 That the Gentiles <1484-ethnos-> should be

fellowheirs <4789-sugkleronomos->, and of the same <4954-

sussomos-> body <4954-sussomos->, and partakers <4830-

summetochos-> of his promise <1860-epaggelia-> in Christ <5547-

Christos-> by the gospel <2098-euaggelion->:

7 Whereof <3739-hos-> I was made <1096-ginomai-> a

minister <1249-diakonos->, according <2596-kata-> to the gift

<1431-dorea-> of the grace <5485-charis-> of God <2316-theos->

given <1325-didomi-> unto me by the effectual <1753-energeia->

working <1753-energeia-> of his power <1411-dunamis->.

8 Unto me, who am less <1647-elachistoteros-> than

the least <1647-elachistoteros-> of all <3956-pas-> saints <0040-

hagios->, is this <3778-houtos-> grace <5485-charis-> given

<1325-didomi->, that I should preach <2097-euaggelizo-> among

<1722-en-> the Gentiles <1484-ethnos-> the unsearchable <0421-

anexichniastos-> riches <4149-ploutos-> of Christ <5547-Christos-

9 And to make <5461-photizo-> all <3956-pas-> [men]

see <5461-photizo-> what <5101-tis-> [is] the fellowship <2842-

koinonia-> of the mystery <3466-musterion->, which <3588-ho->

from the beginning of the world <0165-aion-> hath been hid <0613-

apokrupto-> in God <2316-theos->, who <3588-ho-> created <2936-

ktizo-> all <3956-pas-> things by Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ

<5547-Christos->:

10 To the intent <2443-hina-> that now <3568-nun->

unto the principalities <0746-arche-> and powers <1849-exousia->

in heavenly <2032-epouranios-> [places] might be known <1107-

gnorizo-> by the church <1577-ekklesia-> the manifold <4182-

polupoikilos-> wisdom <4678-sophia-> of God <2316-theos->,

11 According <2596-kata-> to the eternal <0165-aion->

purpose <4286-prothesis-> which <3739-hos-> he purposed <4160-

poieo-> in Christ <5547-Christos-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> our Lord

<2962-kurios->:

12 In whom <3739-hos-> we have <2192-echo-> boldness

<3954-parrhesia-> and access <4318-prosagoge-> with confidence

<4006-pepoithesis-> by the faith <4102-pistis-> of him.

13 Wherefore <1352-dio-> I desire <0154-aiteo-> that

ye faint <1573-ekkakeo-> not at <1722-en-> my tribulations <2347-

thlipsis-> for you, which <3748-hostis-> is your glory <1391-

doxa->.

14. For this <5127-toutou-> cause <5484-charin-> I

bow <2578-kampto-> my knees <1119-gonu-> unto the Father <3962-

pater-> of our Lord <2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ

<5547-Christos->,

15 Of whom <3739-hos-> the whole <3956-pas-> family

<3965-patria-> in heaven <3772-ouranos-> and earth <1093-ge-> is

named <3687-onomazo->,

16 That he would grant <1325-didomi-> you, according

<2596-kata-> to the riches <4149-ploutos-> of his glory <1391-

doxa->, to be strengthened <2901-krataioo-> with might <1411-

dunamis-> by his Spirit <4151-pneuma-> in the inner <2080-eso->

man <0444-anthropos->;

17 That Christ <5547-Christos-> may dwell <2730-

katoikeo-> in your <5216-humon-> hearts <2588-kardia-> by faith

<4102-pistis->; that ye, being rooted <4492-rhizoo-> and

grounded <2311-themelioo-> in love <0026-agape->,

18 May be able <1840-exischuo-> to comprehend <2638-

katalambano-> with all <3956-pas-> saints <0040-hagios-> what

<5101-tis-> [is] the breadth <4114-platos->, and length <3372-

mekos->, and depth <0899-bathos->, and height <5311-hupsos->;

19 And to know <1097-ginosko-> the love <0026-agape->

of Christ <5547-Christos->, which passeth <5235-huperballo->

knowledge <1108-gnosis->, that ye might be filled <4137-pleroo->

to the power <1411-dunamis-> that worketh <1754-energeo-> in us,

21 Unto him [be] glory <1391-doxa-> in the church

Ephesians 4

1. I therefore <3767-oun->, the prisoner <1198-

desmios-> of the Lord <2962-kurios->, beseech <3870-parakaleo->

you that ye walk <4043-peripateo-> worthy <0516-axios-> of the

vocation <2821-klesis-> wherewith <3739-hos-> ye are called

<2564-kaleo->,

2. With all <3956-pas-> lowliness <5012-

tapeinophrosune-> and meekness <4236-praiotes->, with

longsuffering <3115-makrothumia->, forbearing <0430-anechomai->

one <0240-allelon-> another <0240-allelon-> in love <0026-agape-

3 Endeavouring <4704-spoudazo-> to keep <5083-tereo->

the unity <1775-henotes-> of the Spirit <4151-pneuma-> in the

bond <4886-sundesmos-> of peace <1515-eirene->.

4 [There is] one <1520-heis-> body <4983-soma->, and

one <1520-heis-> Spirit <4151-pneuma->, even <2532-kai-> as ye

are called <2564-kaleo-> in one <3391-mia-> hope <1680-elpis->

of your <5216-humon-> calling <2821-klesis->;

5 One <1520-heis-> Lord <2962-kurios->, one <1520-

heis-> faith <4102-pistis->, one <3391-mia-> baptism <0908-

baptisma->,

6 One <1520-heis-> God <2316-theos-> and Father <3962-

pater-> of all <3956-pas->, who <3588-ho-> [is] above <1909-epi-

> all <3956-pas->, and through <1223-dia-> all <3956-pas->, and

in you all <3956-pas->.

7 But unto every <1538-hekastos-> one <1520-heis-> of

us is given <1325-didomi-> grace <5485-charis-> according <2596-

kata-> to the measure <3358-metron-> of the gift <1431-dorea->

of Christ <5547-Christos->.

8 Wherefore <1352-dio-> he saith <3004-lego->, When

he ascended <0305-anabaino-> up on <5311-hupsos-> high <5311-

hupsos->, he led <0162-aichmaloteuo-> captivity <0161-

aichmalosia-> captive <0162-aichmaloteuo->, and gave <1325-

didomi-> gifts <1390-doma-> unto men <0444-anthropos->.

9 (Now that he ascended <0305-anabaino->, what <5101-

tis-> is it but that he also <2532-kai-> descended <2597-

katabaino-> first <4412-proton-> into <1519-eis-> the lower

<2737-katoteros-> parts <3313-meros-> of the earth <1093-ge->?

10 He that descended <2597-katabaino-> is the same

also <2532-kai-> that ascended <0305-anabaino-> up far <5231-

huperano-> above <5231-huperano-> all <3956-pas-> heavens <3772-

ouranos->, that he might fill <4137-pleroo-> all <3956-pas->

things.)

11 And he gave <1325-didomi-> some <3588-ho->,

apostles <0652-apostolos->; and some <3588-ho->, prophets <4396-

prophetes->; and some <3588-ho->, evangelists <2099-euaggelistes-

>; and some <3588-ho->, pastors <4166-poimen-> and teachers

<1320-didaskalos->;

12 For the perfecting <2677-katartismos-> of the

saints <0040-hagios->, for the work <2041-ergon-> of the

ministry <1248-diakonia->, for the edifying <3619-oikodome-> of

the body <4983-soma-> of Christ <5547-Christos->:

13 Till <3360-mechri-> we all <3956-pas-> come <2658-

katantao-> in the unity <1775-henotes-> of the faith <4102-

pistis->, and of the knowledge <1922-epignosis-> of the Son

<5207-huios-> of God <2316-theos->, unto a perfect <5046-teleios-

> man <0435-aner->, unto the measure <3358-metron-> of the

stature <2244-helikia-> of the fulness <4138-pleroma-> of Christ

<5547-Christos->:

14 That we [henceforth <3063-loipon->] be no <3371-

meketi-> more <2001-episucho-> children <3516-nepios->, tossed

<2831-kludonizomai-> to and fro <2831-kludonizomai->, and

carried <4064-periphero-> about <4064-periphero-> with every

<3596-hodoiporeo-> wind <0417-anemos-> of doctrine <1319-

didaskalia->, by the sleight <2940-kubeia-> of men <0444-

anthropos->, [and] cunning craftiness <3834-panourgia->, whereby

<4314-pros-> they lie <3180-methodeia-> in wait <3180-methodeia-

> to deceive <4106-plane->;

15 But speaking <0226-aletheuo-> the truth <0226-

aletheuo-> in love <0026-agape->, may grow <0837-auzano-> up

into <1519-eis-> him in all <3956-pas-> things, which <3739-hos-

> is the head <2776-kephale->, [even] Christ <5547-Christos->:

16 From whom <3739-hos-> the whole <3956-pas-> body

<4983-soma-> fitly <4883-sunarmologeo-> joined <4883-

sunarmologeo-> together <4883-sunarmologeo-> and compacted <4822-

sumbibazo-> by that which every <3596-hodoiporeo-> joint <0860-

haphe-> supplieth <2024-epichoregia->, according <2596-kata-> to

the effectual <1753-energeia-> working <1753-energeia-> in the

measure <3358-metron-> of every <1538-hekastos-> part <3313-

meros->, maketh <4160-poieo-> increase <0838-auxesis-> of the

body <4983-soma-> unto the edifying <3619-oikodome-> of itself

<1438-heautou-> in love <0026-agape->.

17. This <5124-touto-> I say <3004-lego-> therefore

<3767-oun->, and testify <3143-marturomai-> in the Lord <2962-

kurios->, that ye henceforth <3371-meketi-> walk <4043-peripateo-

> not as other <3062-loipoy-> Gentiles <1484-ethnos-> walk <4043-

peripateo->, in the vanity <3153-mataiotes-> of their mind <3563-

nous->,

18 Having the understanding <1271-dianoia-> darkened

<4654-skotizo->, being <5607-on-> alienated <0526-apallotrioo->

from the life <2222-zoe-> of God <2316-theos-> through <1223-dia-

> the ignorance <0052-agnoia-> that is in them, because <1223-

dia-> of the blindness <4457-porosis-> of their heart <2588-

kardia->:

19 Who <3748-hostis-> being past <0524-apalgeo->

feeling <0524-apalgeo-> have given <3860-paradidomi-> themselves

<1438-heautou-> over <3860-paradidomi-> unto lasciviousness

<0766-aselgeia->, to work <2039-ergasia-> all <3956-pas->

uncleanness <0167-akatharsia-> with greediness <4124-pleonexia->.

20 But ye have not so <3779-houto-> learned <3129-

manthano-> Christ <5547-Christos->;

21 If <1489-eige-> so <3779-houto-> be that ye have

heard <0191-akouo-> him, and have been taught <1321-didasko-> by

him, as the truth <0225-aletheia-> is in Jesus <2424-Iesous->:

22 That ye put <0659-apotithemi-> off <0659-

apotithemi-> concerning <2596-kata-> the former <4387-proteros->

conversation <0391-anastrophe-> the old <3820-palaios-> man

<0444-anthropos->, which <3588-ho-> is corrupt <5351-phtheiro->

according <2596-kata-> to the deceitful <0539-apate-> lusts

<1939-epithumia->;

23 And be renewed <0365-ananeoo-> in the spirit <4151-

pneuma-> of your <5216-humon-> mind <3563-nous->;

24 And that ye put <1746-enduo-> on <1746-enduo-> the

new <2537-kainos-> man <0444-anthropos->, which <3588-ho-> after

<2596-kata-> God <2316-theos-> is created <2936-ktizo-> in

righteousness <1343-dikaiosune-> and true <0225-aletheia->

holiness <3742-hosiotes->.

25 Wherefore <1352-dio-> putting <0659-apotithemi->

away <0659-apotithemi-> lying <5579-pseudos->, speak <2980-laleo-

> every <1538-hekastos-> man truth <0226-aletheuo-> with his

neighbour <4139-plesion->: for we are members <3196-melos-> one

<0240-allelon-> of another <0240-allelon->.

26 Be ye angry <3710-orgizo->, and sin <0264-

hamartano-> not: let not the sun <2246-helios-> go <1931-epiduo-

> down <1931-epiduo-> upon your <5216-humon-> wrath <3950-

parorgismos->:

27 Neither <3383-mete-> give <1325-didomi-> place

<5117-topos-> to the devil <1228-diabolos->.

28 Let him that stole <2813-klepto-> steal <2813-

klepto-> no <3371-meketi-> more <2001-episucho->: but rather

<3123-mallon-> let him labour <2872-kopiao->, working <2038-

ergazomai-> with [his] hands <5495-cheir-> the thing which is

good <0018-agathos->, that he may have <2192-echo-> to give

<3330-metadidomi-> to him that needeth <5532-chreia->.

29 Let no <3361-me-> corrupt <4550-sapros->

communication <3056-logos-> proceed <1607-ekporeuomai-> out of

your <5216-humon-> mouth <4750-stoma->, but that which <1536-ei

tis-> is good <0018-agathos-> to the use <5532-chreia-> of

edifying <3619-oikodome->, that it may minister <1325-didomi->

grace <5485-charis-> unto the hearers <0191-akouo->.

30 And grieve <3076-lupeo-> not the holy <0040-hagios-

redemption <0629-apolutrosis->.

31 Let all <3956-pas-> bitterness <4088-pikria->, and

wrath <2372-thumos->, and anger <3709-orge->, and clamour <2906-

krauge->, and evil <0988-blasphemia-> speaking <0988-blasphemia-

malice <2549-kakia->:

32 And be ye kind <5543-chrestos-> one <0240-allelon-

forgiving <5483-charizomai-> one <1438-heautou-> another <1438-

Ephesians 5

1. Be ye therefore <3767-oun-> followers <3402-

mimetes-> of God <2316-theos->, as dear <0027-agapetos->

children <5043-teknon->;

2 And walk <4043-peripateo-> in love <0026-agape->,

as Christ <5547-Christos-> also <2532-kai-> hath loved <0026-

agape-> us, and hath given <3860-paradidomi-> himself <1438-

heautou-> for us an offering <4376-prosphora-> and a sacrifice

<2378-thusia-> to God <2316-theos-> for a sweetsmelling <2175-

euodia-> savour <3744-osme->.

3. But fornication <4202-porneia->, and all <3956-pas-

> uncleanness <0167-akatharsia->, or <2228-e-> covetousness

<4124-pleonexia->, let it not be once <3366-mede-> named <3687-

onomazo-> among <1722-en-> you, as becometh <4241-prepo-> saints

<0040-hagios->;

4 Neither <3756-ou-> filthiness <0151-aischrotes->,

nor <2532-kai-> foolish <3473-morologia-> talking <3473-

morologia->, nor <2228-e-> jesting <2160-eutrapelia->, which

<3588-ho-> are not convenient <0433-aneko->: but rather <3123-

mallon-> giving of thanks <2169-eucharistia->.

5 For this <5124-touto-> ye know <1097-ginosko->,

that no <3756-ou-> whoremonger <4205-pornos->, nor <2228-e->

unclean <0169-akathartos-> person, nor <2228-e-> covetous <4123-

pleonektes-> man, who <3739-hos-> is an idolater <1496-

eidololatres->, hath <2192-echo-> any inheritance <2817-

kleronomia-> in the kingdom <0932-basileia-> of Christ <5547-

Christos-> and of God <2316-theos->.

6 Let no <3367-medeis-> man <3367-medeis-> deceive

<0538-apatao-> you with vain <2756-kenos-> words <3056-logos->:

for because <1223-dia-> of these <5023-tauta-> things cometh

<2064-erchomai-> the wrath <3709-orge-> of God <2316-theos->

upon the children <5207-huios-> of disobedience <0543-apeitheia-

7 Be not ye therefore <3767-oun-> partakers <4830-

summetochos-> with them.

8 For ye were sometimes <4218-pote-> darkness <4655-

skotos->, but now <3568-nun-> [are ye] light <5457-phos-> in the

Lord <2962-kurios->: walk <4043-peripateo-> as children <5043-

teknon-> of light <5457-phos->:

9 (For the fruit <2590-karpos-> of the Spirit <4151-

pneuma-> [is] in all <3956-pas-> goodness <0019-agathosune-> and

righteousness <1343-dikaiosune-> and truth <0226-aletheuo->;)

10 Proving <1381-dokimazo-> what <5101-tis-> is

acceptable <2101-euarestos-> unto the Lord <2962-kurios->.

11 And have no <3361-me-> fellowship <4790-

sugkoinoneo-> with the unfruitful <0175-akarpos-> works <2041-

ergon-> of darkness <4655-skotos->, but rather <3123-mallon->

reprove <1651-elegcho-> [them].

12 For it is a shame <0149-aischron-> even <2532-kai-

> to speak <3004-lego-> of those <3588-ho-> things which are

done <1096-ginomai-> of them in secret <2931-kruphe->.

13 But all <3956-pas-> things that are reproved <1651-

elegcho-> are made <5319-phaneroo-> manifest <5319-phaneroo-> by

the light <5457-phos->: for whatsoever <3956-pas-> doth make

<5319-phaneroo-> manifest <5319-phaneroo-> is light <5457-phos->.

14 Wherefore <1352-dio-> he saith <3004-lego->, Awake

<1453-egeiro-> thou that sleepest <2518-katheudo->, and arise

<0450-anistemi-> from the dead <3498-nekros->, and Christ <5547-

Christos-> shall give thee light <2017-epiphauo->.

15 See <0991-blepo-> then <3767-oun-> that ye walk

<4043-peripateo-> circumspectly <0199-akribos->, not as fools

<0781-asophos->, but as wise <4680-sophos--oneidismos->,

16 Redeeming <1805-exagorazo-> the time <2540-kairos-

>, because <3754-hoti-> the days <2250-hemera-> are evil <4190-

poneros->.

17 Wherefore <5124-touto-> be ye not unwise <0878-

aphron->, but understanding <4920-suniemi-> what <5101-tis-> the

will <2307-thelema-> of the Lord <2962-kurios-> [is].

18 And be not drunk <3182-methusko-> with wine <3631-

oinos->, wherein <3757-hou-> is excess <0810-asotia->; but be

filled <4137-pleroo-> with the Spirit <4151-pneuma->;

19 Speaking <2980-laleo-> to yourselves <1438-heautou-

> in psalms <5568> and hymns <5215-humnos-> and spiritual <4152-

pneumatikos-> songs <5603-oide->, singing <0103-aido-> and

making <5567-psallo-> melody <5567-psallo-> in your <5216-humon-

> heart <2588-kardia-> to the Lord <2962-kurios->;

20 Giving thanks <2168-eucharisteo-> always <3842-

pantote-> for all <3956-pas-> things unto God <2316-theos-> and

the Father <3962-pater-> in the name <3686-onoma-> of our Lord

<2962-kurios-> Jesus <2424-Iesous-> Christ <5547-Christos->;

21. Submitting <5293-hupotasso-> yourselves one <0240-

allelon-> to another <0240-allelon-> in the fear <5401-phobos->

of God <2316-theos->.

22 Wives <1135-gune->, submit <5293-hupotasso->

yourselves unto your <3588-ho-> own <2398-idios-> husbands <0435-

aner->, as unto the Lord <2962-kurios->.

23 For the husband <0435-aner-> is the head <2776-

kephale-> of the wife <1135-gune->, even <2532-kai-> as Christ

<5547-Christos-> is the head <2776-kephale-> of the church <1577-

ekklesia->: and he is the saviour <4990-soter-> of the body

<4983-soma->.

24 Therefore <0235-alla-> as the church <1577-

ekklesia-> is subject <5293-hupotasso-> unto Christ <5547-

Christos->, so <3779-houto-> [let] the wives <1135-gune-> [be]

to their own <2398-idios-> husbands <0435-aner-> in every <3956-

pas-> thing.

25 Husbands <0435-aner->, love <0025-agapao-> your

<1438-heautou-> wives <1135-gune->, even <2531-kathos-> as

Christ <5547-Christos-> also <2532-kai-> loved <0025-agapao->

the church <1577-ekklesia->, and gave <3860-paradidomi-> himself

<1438-heautou-> for it;

26 That he might sanctify <0037-hagiazo-> and cleanse

<2511-katharizo-> it with the washing <3067-loutron-> of water

<5204-hudor-> by the word <4487-rhema->,

27 That he might present <3936-paristemi-> it to

himself <1438-heautou-> a glorious <1741-endoxos-> church <1577-

ekklesia->, not having <2192-echo-> spot <4696-spilos->, or

<2228-e-> wrinkle <4512-rhutis->, or <2228-e-> any <5100-tis->

such <5108-toioutos-> thing; but that it should be holy <0040-

hagios-> and without <0299-amomos-> blemish <0299-amomos->.

28 So <3779-houto-> ought <3784-opheilo-> men <0435-

aner-> to love <0025-agapao-> their wives <1135-gune-> as their

own <1438-heautou-> bodies <4983-soma->. He that loveth <0025-

agapao-> his wife <1135-gune-> loveth <0025-agapao-> himself

<1438-heautou->.

29 For no <3762-oudeis-> man <3762-oudeis-> ever

<4218-pote-> yet hated <3404-miseo-> his own <1438-heautou->

flesh <4561-sarx->; but nourisheth <1625-ektrepho-> and

cherisheth <2282-thalpo-> it, even <2532-kai-> as the Lord <2962-

kurios-> the church <1577-ekklesia->:

30 For we are members <3196-melos-> of his body <4983-

soma->, of his flesh <4561-sarx->, and of his bones <3747-osteon-

31 For this <5127-toutou-> cause <0873-aphorizo->

shall a man <0444-anthropos-> leave <2641-kataleipo-> his father

<3962-pater-> and mother <3384-meter->, and shall be joined

<4347-proskollao-> unto his wife <1135-gune->, and they two

<1417-duo-> shall be one <3391-mia-> flesh <4561-sarx->.

32 This <5124-touto-> is a great <3173-megas->

mystery <3466-musterion->: but I speak <3004-lego-> concerning

<1519-eis-> Christ <5547-Christos-> and the church <1577-

ekklesia->.

33 Nevertheless <4133-plen-> let every <1520-heis->

one of you in particular <1520-heis-> so <3779-houto-> love

<0025-agapao-> his wife <1135-gune-> even <5613-hos-> as himself

<1438-heautou->; and the wife <1135-gune-> [see] that she

reverence <5399-phobeo-> [her] husband <0435-aner->.

Ephesians 6

1. Children <5043-teknon->, obey <5219-hupakouo->

your <5216-humon-> parents <1118-goneus-> in the Lord <2962-

4 And, ye fathers <3962-pater->, provoke <3949-

parorgizo-> not your <5216-humon-> children <5043-teknon-> to

wrath <3949-parorgizo->: but bring <1625-ektrepho-> them up in

the nurture <3809-paideia-> and admonition <3559-nouthesia-> of

the Lord <2962-kurios->.

5 Servants <1401-doulos->, be obedient <5219-hupakouo-

kata-> to the flesh <4561-sarx->, with fear <5401-phobos-> and

trembling <5156-tromos->, in singleness <0572-haplotes-> of your

<5216-humon-> heart <2588-kardia->, as unto Christ <5547-

Christos->;

6 Not with eyeservice <3787-ophthalmodouleia->, as

menpleasers <0441-anthropareskos->; but as the servants <1401-

doulos-> of Christ <5547-Christos->, doing <4160-poieo-> the

will <2307-thelema-> of God <2316-theos-> from the heart <5590-

7 With good <2133-eunoia-> will <2133-eunoia-> doing

<1398-douleuo-> service <1398-douleuo->, as to the Lord <2962-

kurios->, and not to men <0444-anthropos->:

8 Knowing <1492-eido-> that whatsoever <5100-tis->

good <0018-agathos-> thing any <1538-hekastos-> man doeth <4160-

poieo->, the same <3778-houtos-> shall he receive <2865-komizo->

heaven <3772-ouranos->; neither <3756-ou-> is there respect

10. Finally <3063-loipon->, my brethren <0080-adephos-

in the power <2904-kratos-> of his might <2479-ischus->.

11 Put <1746-enduo-> on <1746-enduo-> the whole

able <1410-dunamai-> to stand <2476-histemi-> against <4314-pros-

12 For we wrestle <3823-pale-> not against <4314-pros-

pros-> principalities <0746-arche->, against <4314-pros-> powers

<1849-exousia->, against <4314-pros-> the rulers <2888-

kosmokrator-> of the darkness <4655-skotos-> of this <5127-

13 Wherefore <5124-touto-> take <0353-analambano->

<4570-sbennumi-> all <3956-pas-> the fiery <4448-puroo-> darts

17 And take <1209-dechomai-> the helmet <4030-

perikephalaia-> of salvation <4992-soterion->, and the sword
