¹ Then become imitators of God, as beloved children,² and walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of a sweet smell.

³ But let not fornication, and all uncleanness, or greediness, be named among you, as is fitting for saints;⁴ also baseness, and foolish talking, or joking (the things not becoming), but rather thanksgiving.⁵ For be knowing this, that every fornicator, or unclean one, or covetous one , who is an idolater, has no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.⁶ Let no one deceive you with empty words, for through these things the wrath of God comes on the sons of disobedience.⁷ Then do not become partakers with them;⁸ for you then were darkness, but are now light in the Lord; walk as children of light.⁹ For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,¹⁰ proving what is pleasing to the Lord.¹¹ And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them .¹² For it is shameful even to speak of the things being done by them in secret.¹³ But all things being exposed by the light are clearly revealed, for everything having been revealed is light.¹⁴ Because of this, He says, Arise, sleeping ones and stand up out of the dead ones, and Christ will shine on you. No OT passage ¹⁵ Then watch how carefully you walk, not as unwise, but as wise ones,¹⁶ redeeming the time, because the days are evil.¹⁷ For this reason, do not be foolish, but understanding what the will of the Lord is .¹⁸ And "do not be drunk with wine," in which is debauchery, but be filled by the Spirit, Prov. 23:31 ¹⁹ speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and praising in your heart to the Lord,²⁰ giving thanks at all times for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, even to God the Father,

²¹ having been subject to one another in the fear of God.²² Wives, subject yourselves to your own husbands, as to the Lord,²³ because a husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is Head of the assembly, and He is the Savior of the body.²⁴ But even as the assembly is subject to Christ, so also the wives to their own husbands in everything.²⁵ Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave Himself up on its behalf,²⁶ that He might sanctify it, cleansing it by the washing of the water in the Word,²⁷ that He might present it to Himself as the glorious assembly, not having spot or wrinkle, or any such things, but that it be holy and without blemish.²⁸ So, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies, (he loving his wife loves himself),²⁹ for then no one hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as also the Lord the assembly.³⁰ For we are members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones.³¹ "For this, a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh." Gen. 2:24 ³² The mystery is great, but I speak as to Christ and as to the assembly.³³ However, you also, everyone, let each one love his wife as himself, and the wife, that she give deference to the husband.
