English Bible Presentation Sharing - Ephesians Book, chapter 5, verse 25 in Rv Version

Ephesians 5 : 1 (RV)

Be ye therefore imitators of God, as beloved children;

Ephesians 5 : 2 (RV)

and walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odour of a sweet smell.

Ephesians 5 : 3 (RV)

But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints;

Ephesians 5 : 4 (RV)

nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, or jesting, which are not befitting: but rather giving of thanks.

Ephesians 5 : 5 (RV)

For this ye know of a surety, that no fornicator, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, which is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

Ephesians 5 : 6 (RV)

Let no man deceive you with empty words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience.

Ephesians 5 : 7 (RV)

Be not ye therefore partakers with them;

Ephesians 5 : 8 (RV)

For ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord: walk as children of light

Ephesians 5 : 9 (RV)

(for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth),

Ephesians 5 : 10 (RV)

proving what is well�pleasing unto the Lord;

Ephesians 5 : 11 (RV)

and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them;

Ephesians 5 : 12 (RV)

for the things which are done by them in secret it is a shame even to speak of.

Ephesians 5 : 13 (RV)

But all things when they are reproved are made manifest by the light: for everything that is made manifest is light.

Ephesians 5 : 14 (RV)

Wherefore cf15i he saith, Awake, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall shine upon thee.

Ephesians 5 : 15 (RV)

Look therefore carefully how ye walk, not as unwise, but as wise;

Ephesians 5 : 16 (RV)

redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

Ephesians 5 : 17 (RV)

Wherefore be ye not foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

Ephesians 5 : 18 (RV)

And be not drunken with wine, wherein is riot, but be filled with the Spirit;

Ephesians 5 : 19 (RV)

speaking one to another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord;

Ephesians 5 : 20 (RV)

giving thanks always for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;

Ephesians 5 : 21 (RV)

subjecting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ.

Ephesians 5 : 22 (RV)

Wives, cf15i be in subjection unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

Ephesians 5 : 23 (RV)

For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, cf15i being himself the saviour of the body.

Ephesians 5 : 24 (RV)

But as the church is subject to Christ, so cf15i let the wives also cf15i be to their husbands in everything.

Ephesians 5 : 25 (RV)

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it;

Ephesians 5 : 26 (RV)

that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word,

Ephesians 5 : 27 (RV)

that he might present the church to himself a glorious cf15i church , not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

Ephesians 5 : 28 (RV)

Even so ought husbands also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his own wife loveth himself:

Ephesians 5 : 29 (RV)

for no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as Christ also the church;

Ephesians 5 : 30 (RV)

because we are members of his body.

Ephesians 5 : 31 (RV)

For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the twain shall become one flesh.

Ephesians 5 : 32 (RV)

This mystery is great: but I speak in regard of Christ and of the church.

Ephesians 5 : 33 (RV)

Nevertheless do ye also severally love each one his own wife even as himself; and cf15i let the wife cf15i see that she fear her husband.
