- 1. Be ye therefore folowers of God, as deare chyldren:
- 2. And walke ye in loue, euen as Christe hath loued vs, and hath geuen hym selfe for vs an offering and a sacrifice of a sweete smellyng sauour to God.
- 3. But fornication, and all vncleannesse, or couetousnesse, let it not be once named among you, as it becommeth saintes:
- 4. Neither fylthynesse, neither foolyshe talkyng, neither iestyng, which are not comely: but rather, geuyng of thankes.
- 5. For this ye knowe, that no whoremonger, neither vncleane person, nor couetous person, which is a worshipper of images, hath any inheritaunce in the kyngdome of Christe, and of God.
- 6. Let no man deceaue you with vayne wordes: For, because of such thynges commeth the wrath of God vppon the chyldren of disobedience.
- 7. Be not ye therefore companions of them.
- 8. For ye were sometimes darknesse: but nowe are ye lyght in the Lorde. Walke as chyldren of lyght.
- 9. For the fruite of the spirite (is) in all goodnesse, and righteousnesse, & trueth,
- 10. Approuyng what is acceptable vnto the Lorde.
- 11. And haue no felowship with the vnfruitefull workes of darknesse, but rather euen rebuke them.
- 12. For it is shame euen to name those thynges whiche are done of them in secrete.
- 13. But all thynges, when they are rebuked of the lyght, are manifest: For all that which do make manifest, is lyght.
- 14. Wherefore he sayth: Awake thou that sleepest, and stande vp from the dead, and Christe shall geue thee lyght.
- 15. Take heede therfore howe ye walke circumspectlye: not as vnwyse, but as wyse,
- 16. Redeemyng the time, because ye dayes are euyll.
- 17. Wherfore be ye not vnwise, but vnderstandyng what the wyll of the Lord is.
- 18. And be not drunke with wine, wherin is excesse: but be fylled with the spirite,
- 19. Speaking vnto your selues in psalmes and hymnes, and spirituall songues, syngyng and makyng melodie to the Lorde in your heartes:
- 20. Geuing thankes alwayes for all thinges vnto God and the father, in ye name of our Lorde Iesus Christe,
- 21. Submittyng your selues one to another in the feare of God.
- 22. Wyues, submit your selues vnto your owne husbandes, as vnto the Lorde:
- 23. For the husbande is the head of the wyfe, euen as Christe is the head of the Church: & he is the sauiour of the bodie.
- 24. But as the Church is subiect to Christ, lykewyse the wyues to their owne husbandes in all thynges.
- 25. Ye husbandes loue your wyues, euen as Christe also loued the Churche, and gaue hym selfe for it,
- 26. To sanctifie it, clensyng [it] in the fountayne of water in the worde,
- 27. To make it vnto hym selfe a glorious Churche, not hauyng spot or wrinckle, or any such thyng: but that it should be holy, and without blame.
- 28. So ought men to loue their wyues, as their owne bodies. He that loueth his wyfe, loueth hym selfe.
- 29. For no man euer yet hated his owne flesshe: but norissheth & cherissheth it, euen as the Lorde the Churche.
- 30. For we are members of his body, of his flesshe, and of his bones.
- 31. For this cause shall a man leaue father and mother, and shalbe ioyned vnto his wyfe, and two shalbe made one flesshe.
- 32. This is a great secrete: but I speake of Christe and of the Churche.
- 33. Therfore euery one of you [do ye so] Let euery one of you loue his wyfe euen as hym selfe, and [let] the wyfe reuerence her husbande.
