English Bible Presentation Sharing - Ephesians Book, chapter 5, verse 1 in Ylt Version

Ephesians 5 : 1 (YLT)

Become, then, followers of God, as children beloved,

Ephesians 5 : 2 (YLT)

and walk in love, as also the Christ did love us, and did give himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odour of a sweet smell,

Ephesians 5 : 3 (YLT)

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

Ephesians 5 : 4 (YLT)

also filthiness, and foolish talking, or jesting, -- the things not fit -- but rather thanksgiving;

Ephesians 5 : 5 (YLT)

for this ye know, that every whoremonger, or unclean, or covetous person, who is an idolater, hath no inheritance in the reign of the Christ and God.

Ephesians 5 : 6 (YLT)

Let no one deceive you with vain words, for because of these things cometh the anger of God upon the sons of the disobedience,

Ephesians 5 : 7 (YLT)

become not, then, partakers with them,

Ephesians 5 : 8 (YLT)

for ye were once darkness, and now light in the Lord; as children of light walk ye,

Ephesians 5 : 9 (YLT)

for the fruit of the Spirit *is in all goodness, and righteousness, and truth,

Ephesians 5 : 10 (YLT)

proving what is well-pleasing to the Lord,

Ephesians 5 : 11 (YLT)

and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of the darkness and rather even convict,

Ephesians 5 : 12 (YLT)

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

Ephesians 5 : 13 (YLT)

and all the things reproved by the light are manifested, for everything that is manifested is light;

Ephesians 5 : 14 (YLT)

wherefore he saith, `Arouse thyself, thou who art sleeping, and arise out of the dead, and the Christ shall shine upon thee.`

Ephesians 5 : 15 (YLT)

See, then, how exactly ye walk, not as unwise, but as wise,

Ephesians 5 : 16 (YLT)

redeeming the time, because the days are evil;

Ephesians 5 : 17 (YLT)

because of this become not fools, but -- understanding what *is the will of the Lord,

Ephesians 5 : 18 (YLT)

and be not drunk with wine, in which is dissoluteness, but be filled in the Spirit,

Ephesians 5 : 19 (YLT)

speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,

Ephesians 5 : 20 (YLT)

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

Ephesians 5 : 21 (YLT)

subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of God.

Ephesians 5 : 22 (YLT)

The wives! to your own husbands subject yourselves, as to the Lord,

Ephesians 5 : 23 (YLT)

because the husband is head of the wife, as also the Christ *is head of the assembly, and he is saviour of the body,

Ephesians 5 : 24 (YLT)

but even as the assembly is subject to Christ, so also *are the wives to their own husbands in everything.

Ephesians 5 : 25 (YLT)

The husbands! love your own wives, as also the Christ did love the assembly, and did give himself for it,

Ephesians 5 : 26 (YLT)

that he might sanctify it, having cleansed *it with the bathing of the water in the saying,

Ephesians 5 : 27 (YLT)

that he might present it to himself the assembly in glory, not having spot or wrinkle, or any of such things, but that it may be holy and unblemished;

Ephesians 5 : 28 (YLT)

so ought the husbands to love their own wives as their own bodies: he who is loving his own wife -- himself he doth love;

Ephesians 5 : 29 (YLT)

for no one ever his own flesh did hate, but doth nourish and cherish it, as also the Lord -- the assembly,

Ephesians 5 : 30 (YLT)

because members we are of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones;

Ephesians 5 : 31 (YLT)

`for this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife, and they shall be -- the two -- for one flesh;`

Ephesians 5 : 32 (YLT)

this secret is great, and I speak in regard to Christ and to the assembly;

Ephesians 5 : 33 (YLT)

but ye also, every one in particular -- let each his own wife so love as himself, and the wife -- that she may reverence the husband.
