Book 49 Ephesians Chapter 006
| |
| 006:001 | Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
|
| 006:002 | Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise;
|
| 006:003 | That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
|
| 006:004 | And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
|
| 006:005 | Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;
|
| 006:006 | Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;
|
| 006:007 | With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:
|
| 006:008 | Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.
|
| 006:009 | And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.
|
| 006:010 | Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
|
| 006:011 | Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
|
| 006:012 | For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
|
| 006:013 | Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
|
| 006:014 | Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
|
| 006:015 | And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
|
| 006:016 | Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
|
| 006:017 | And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
|
| 006:018 | Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
|
| 006:019 | And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
|
| 006:020 | For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
|
| 006:021 | But that ye also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things:
|
| 006:022 | Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.
|
| 006:023 | Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
|
| 006:024 | Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen. |
