Ephesians 5 — TNT
5Verse 1Be ye folowers of god as dere childrenVerse 2and walke in love even as Christ loved vs and gave him silfe for vs an offerynge and a sacrifyce of a swete saver to god.Verse 3So that fornicacion and all vnclennes or coveteousnes be not once named amonge you as it be commeth saynctes:Verse 4nether filthynes nether folishe talkyng nether gestinge which are not comly: but rather gevynge of thankesVerse 5For this ye knowe that no whormonger other vnclene person or coveteous person which is the worshipper of ymages hath eny inheritaunce in the kyngdome of Christ and of God.Verse 6Let no man deceave you with vayne wordes. For thorow soche thinges cometh the wrath of God vpon the chyldre of vnbelefe.Verse 7Be not therfore companions with them.Verse 8Ye were once dercknes but are now light in the Lorde. Walke as chyldren of light.Verse 9For the frute of the sprete is in all goodnes rightewesnes and trueth.Verse 10Accept that which is pleasinge to the Lorde:Verse 11and have no fellishippe with the vnfrutfull workes of dercknes: but rather rebuke them.Verse 12For it is shame even to name those thinges which are done of them in secrete:Verse 13but all thinges when they are rebuked of the light are manifest. For whatsoever is manifest that same is light.Verse 14Wherfore he sayth: awake thou that slepest and stond vp from deeth and Christ shall geve the light.Verse 15Take hede therfore that ye walke circuspectly: not as foles: but as wyseVerse 16redemynge the tyme: for the dayes are evyll.Verse 17Wherfore be ye not vnwyse but vnderstonde what the will of the Lorde isVerse 18and be not dronke with wyne wherin is excesse: but be fulfilled with the spreteVerse 19speakynge vnto youre selves in psalmes and ymnes and spretuall songes synginge and makinge melodie to the Lorde in youre hertesVerse 20gevinge thankes all wayes for all thinges vnto God the father in the name of oure Lorde Iesu Christ:Verse 21submittinge youre selves one to another in the feare of God.Verse 22Wemen submit youre selves vnto youre awne husbandes as vnto the Lorde.Verse 23For the husbande is the wyves heed even as Christ is the heed of the congregacion and the same is the saveoure of the body.Verse 24Therfore as the congregacion is in subieccion to Christ lykwyse let the wyves be in subieccion to their husbandes in all thinges.Verse 25Husbandes love youre wyves even as Christ loved the congregacion and gave him silfe for itVerse 26to sanctifie it and clensed it in the fountayne of water thorow the wordeVerse 27to make it vnto him selfe a glorious congregacion with oute spot or wrynckle or eny soche thinge: but that it shuld be holy and with out blame.Verse 28So ought men to love their wyves as their awne bodyes. He that loveth his wyfe loveth him sylfe.Verse 29For no man ever yet hated his awne flesshe: but norissheth and cherisseth it even as the lorde doth the congregacion.Verse 30For we are members of his body of his flesshe and of his bones.Verse 31For this cause shall a man leave father and mother and shall cotinue with his wyfe and two shalbe made one flesshe.Verse 32This is a great secrete but I speake bitwene Christ and the congregacion.Verse 33Neverthelesse do ye so that every one of you love his wyfe truely even as him silfe. And let the wyfe se that she feare her husbande.
