| 5:1 Γίνεσθε οὖν μιμηταὶ τοῦ θεοῦ ὡς τέκνα ἀγαπητὰ | 1 Γίνεσθε οὖν μιμηταὶ τοῦ θεοῦ, ὡς τέκνα ἀγαπητά· |
| Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children; | Be you therefore followers of God, as dear children; |
| 5:2 καὶ περιπατεῖτε ἐν ἀγάπῃ, καθὼς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς ἠγάπησεν ὑμᾶς καὶ παρέδωκεν ἑαυτὸν ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν προσφορὰν καὶ θυσίαν τῷ θεῷ εἰς ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας. | 2 καὶ περιπατεῖτε ἐν ἀγάπῃ, καθὼς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς ἠγάπησεν ἡμᾶς, καὶ παρέδωκεν ἑαυτὸν ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν προσφορὰν καὶ θυσίαν τῷ θεῷ εἰς ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας. |
| and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma. | And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us, and has given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. |
| 5:3 πορνεία δὲ καὶ ἀκαθαρσία πᾶσα ἢ πλεονεξία μηδὲ ὀνομαζέσθω ἐν ὑμῖν, καθὼς πρέπει ἁγίοις, | 3 πορνεία δὲ καὶ πᾶσα ἀκαθαρσία ἢ πλεονεξία μηδὲ ὀνομαζέσθω ἐν ὑμῖν, καθὼς πρέπει ἁγίοις· |
| But immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints; | But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; |
| 5:4 καὶ αἰσχρότης καὶ μωρολογία ἢ εὐτραπελία, ἃ οὐκ ἀνῆκεν, ἀλλὰ μᾶλλον εὐχαριστία. | 4 καὶ αἰσχρότης, καὶ μωρολογία ἢ εὐτραπελία, τὰ οὐκ ἀνήκοντα, ἀλλὰ μᾶλλον εὐχαριστία. |
| and there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. | Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. |
| 5:5 τοῦτο γὰρ ἴστε γινώσκοντες, ὅτι πᾶς πόρνος ἢ ἀκάθαρτος ἢ πλεονέκτης, ὅ ἐστιν εἰδωλολάτρης, οὐκ ἔχει κληρονομίαν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τοῦ Χριστοῦ καὶ θεοῦ. | 5 τοῦτο γάρ ἐστε γινώσκοντες, ὅτι πᾶς πόρνος, ἢ ἀκάθαρτος, ἢ πλεονέκτης, ὅς ἐστιν εἰδωλολάτρης, οὐκ ἔχει κληρονομίαν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τοῦ Χριστοῦ καὶ θεοῦ. |
| For this you know with certainty, that no immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. | For this you know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. |

5:6 Μηδεὶς
ὑμᾶς
ἀπατάτω
κενοῖς
λόγοις· διὰ ταῦτα γὰρ ἔρχεται ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐπὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς τῆς ἀπειθείας. |
6 Μηδεὶς
ὑμᾶς
ἀπατάτω
κενοῖς
λόγοις· διὰ ταῦτα γὰρ ἔρχεται ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐπὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς τῆς ἀπειθείας. |
| Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. | Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things comes the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. |
| 5:7 μὴ οὖν γίνεσθε συμμέτοχοι αὐτῶν· | 7 μὴ οὖν γίνεσθε συμμέτοχοι αὐτῶν. |
| Therefore don’t be partakers with them; | Be not you therefore partakers with them. |

5:8 ἦτε
γάρ
ποτε
σκότος,
νῦν
δὲ
φῶς
ἐν
κυρίῳ· ὡς τέκνα φωτὸς περιπατεῖτε — |
8 ἦτε
γάρ
ποτε
σκότος,
νῦν
δὲ
φῶς
ἐν
κυρίῳ· ὡς τέκνα φωτὸς περιπατεῖτε· — |
| for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light | For you were sometimes darkness, but now are you light in the Lord: walk as children of light: |
| 5:9 ὁ γὰρ καρπὸς τοῦ φωτὸς ἐν πάσῃ ἀγαθωσύνῃ καὶ δικαιοσύνῃ καὶ ἀληθείᾳ — |
9 ὁ
γὰρ
καρπὸς
τοῦ
πνεύματος
ἐν
πάσῃ
ἀγαθωσύνῃ
καὶ
δικαιοσύνῃ
καὶ
ἀληθείᾳ· — |
| (for the fruit of the Light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth), | (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) |
| 5:10 δοκιμάζοντες τί ἐστιν εὐάρεστον τῷ κυρίῳ, | 10 δοκιμάζοντες τί ἐστιν εὐάρεστον τῷ κυρίῳ. |
| trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord. | Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. |
| 5:11 καὶ μὴ συγκοινωνεῖτε τοῖς ἔργοις τοῖς ἀκάρποις τοῦ σκότους, μᾶλλον δὲ καὶ ἐλέγχετε. | 11 καὶ μὴ συγκοινωνεῖτε τοῖς ἔργοις τοῖς ἀκάρποις τοῦ σκότους, μᾶλλον δὲ καὶ ἐλέγχετε· |
| Don’t participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them; | And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. |
| 5:12 τὰ γὰρ κρυφῇ γινόμενα ὑπ᾿ αὐτῶν αἰσχρόν ἐστιν καὶ λέγειν, | 12 τὰ γὰρ κρυφῆ γινόμενα ὑπ᾿ αὐτῶν αἰσχρόν ἐστι καὶ λέγειν. |
| for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret. | For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. |
| 5:13 τὰ δὲ πάντα ἐλεγχόμενα ὑπὸ τοῦ φωτὸς φανεροῦται, |
13 τὰ
δὲ
πάντα
ἐλεγχόμενα
ὑπὸ
τοῦ
φωτὸς
φανεροῦται· πᾶν γὰρ τὸ φανερούμενον φῶς ἐστι· |
| But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light. | But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever does make manifest is light. |
|
5:14 πᾶν
γὰρ
τὸ
φανερούμενον
φῶς
ἐστιν. διὸ λέγει, ἔγειρε, ὁ καθεύδων, καὶ ἀνάστα ἐκ τῶν νεκρῶν, καὶ ἐπιφαύσει σοι ὁ Χριστός. |
14 διὸ λέγει, Ἔγειραι ὁ καθεύδων καὶ ἀνάστα ἐκ τῶν νεκρῶν, καὶ ἐπιφαύσει σοι ὁ Χριστός. |
| For this reason it says, “Awake, sleeper, And arise from the dead, And Christ will shine on you.” | Wherefore he says, Awake you that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give you light. |
| 5:15 Βλέπετε οὖν ἀκριβῶς πῶς περιπατεῖτε μὴ ὡς ἄσοφοι ἀλλ᾿ ὡς σοφοί, | 15 Βλέπετε οὖν πῶς ἀκριβῶς περιπατεῖτε, μὴ ὡς ἄσοφοι, ἀλλ᾿ ὡς σοφοί, |
| Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, | See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, |
| 5:16 ἐξαγοραζόμενοι τὸν καιρόν, ὅτι αἱ ἡμέραι πονηραί εἰσιν. | 16 ἐξαγοραζόμενοι τὸν καιρόν, ὅτι αἱ ἡμέραι πονηραί εἰσι. |
| making the most of your time, because the days are evil. | Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. |
| 5:17 διὰ τοῦτο μὴ γίνεσθε ἄφρονες, ἀλλὰ συνίετε τί τὸ θέλημα τοῦ κυρίου. | 17 διὰ τοῦτο μὴ γίνεσθε ἄφρονες, ἀλλὰ συνιέντες τί τὸ θέλημα τοῦ κυρίου. |
| So then don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. | Wherefore be you not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is. |
| 5:18 καὶ μὴ μεθύσκεσθε οἴνῳ ἐν ᾧ ἐστιν ἀσωτία, ἀλλὰ πληροῦσθε ἐν πνεύματι, |
18 καὶ
μὴ
μεθύσκεσθε
οἴνῳ,
ἐν
ᾧ
ἐστιν
ἀσωτία· ἀλλὰ πληροῦσθε ἐν πνεύματι, |
| And don’t get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit, | And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; |
| 5:19 λαλοῦντες ἑαυτοῖς [ἐν] ψαλμοῖς καὶ ὕμνοις καὶ ᾠδαῖς πνευματικαῖς, ᾄδοντες καὶ ψάλλοντες τῇ καρδίᾳ ὑμῶν τῷ κυρίῳ, | 19 λαλοῦντες ἑαυτοῖς ψαλμοῖς καὶ ὕμνοις καὶ ᾠδαῖς πνευματικαῖς, ᾄδοντες καὶ ψάλλοντες ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ ὑμῶν τῷ κυρίῳ, |
| speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord; | Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; |
| 5:20 εὐχαριστοῦντες πάντοτε ὑπὲρ πάντων ἐν ὀνόματι τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τῷ θεῷ καὶ πατρί. | 20 εὐχαριστοῦντες πάντοτε ὑπὲρ πάντων ἐν ὀνόματι τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τῷ θεῷ καὶ πατρί. |
| always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father; | Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; |
| 5:21 Ὑποτασσόμενοι ἀλλήλοις ἐν φόβῳ Χριστοῦ, | 21 ὑποτασσόμενοι ἀλλήλοις ἐν φόβῳ Θεοῦ. |
| and be subject to one another in the fear of Christ. | Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. |
| 5:22 αἱ γυναῖκες τοῖς ἀνδράσιν, ἀνδράσιν ὡς τῷ κυρίῳ, | 22 αἱ γυναῖκες, τοῖς ἀνδράσιν, ἀνδράσιν ὑποτάσσεσθε, ὡς τῷ κυρίῳ· |
| Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. | Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. |
| 5:23 ὅτι ἀνήρ ἐστιν κεφαλὴ τῆς γυναικὸς ὡς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς κεφαλὴ τῆς ἐκκλησίας, αὐτὸς σωτὴρ τοῦ σώματος· | 23 ὅτι ὁ ἀνήρ ἐστι κεφαλὴ τῆς γυναικός, ὡς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς κεφαλὴ τῆς ἐκκλησίας, καὶ αὐτός ἐστι σωτὴρ τοῦ σώματος· |
| For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, he himself being the Saviour of the body. | For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. |
| 5:24 ἀλλὰ ὡς ἡ ἐκκλησία ὑποτάσσεται τῷ Χριστῷ, οὕτως καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες τοῖς ἀνδράσιν ἐν παντί. | 24 ἀλλ᾿ ὥσπερ ἡ ἐκκλησία ὑποτάσσεται τῷ Χριστῷ, οὕτω καὶ αἱ γυναῖκες τοῖς ἀνδράσιν, ἀνδράσιν ἐν παντί. |
| But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything. | Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. |
| 5:25 Οἱ ἄνδρες, ἀγαπᾶτε τὰς γυναῖκας, καθὼς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς ἠγάπησεν τὴν ἐκκλησίαν καὶ ἑαυτὸν παρέδωκεν ὑπὲρ αὐτῆς, | 25 Οἱ ἄνδρες, ἀγαπᾶτε τὰς γυναῖκας ἑαυτῶν, καθὼς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς ἠγάπησε τὴν ἐκκλησίαν, καὶ ἑαυτὸν παρέδωκεν ὑπὲρ αὐτῆς· |
| Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave himself up for her, | Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; |
| 5:26 ἵνα αὐτὴν ἁγιάσῃ καθαρίσας τῷ λουτρῷ τοῦ ὕδατος ἐν ῥήματι, | 26 ἵνα αὐτὴν ἁγιάσῃ, καθαρίσας τῷ λουτρῷ τοῦ ὕδατος ἐν ῥήματι, |
| so that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, | That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, |
| 5:27 ἵνα παραστήσῃ αὐτὸς ἑαυτῷ ἔνδοξον τὴν ἐκκλησίαν, μὴ ἔχουσαν σπίλον ἢ ῥυτίδα ἤ τι τῶν τοιούτων, ἀλλ᾿ ἵνα ᾖ ἁγία καὶ ἄμωμος. | 27 ἵνα παραστήσῃ αὐτὴν ἑαυτῷ ἔνδοξον τὴν ἐκκλησίαν, μὴ ἔχουσαν σπίλον ἢ ῥυτίδα ἤ τι τῶν τοιούτων, ἀλλ᾿ ἵνα ᾖ ἁγία καὶ ἄμωμος. |
| that he might present to himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless. | That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. |

5:28 οὕτως
ὀφείλουσιν
[καὶ]
οἱ
ἄνδρες
ἀγαπᾶν
τὰς
ἑαυτῶν
γυναῖκας
ὡς
τὰ
ἑαυτῶν
σώματα. ὁ ἀγαπῶν τὴν ἑαυτοῦ γυναῖκα ἑαυτὸν ἀγαπᾷ· |
28 οὕτως
ὀφείλουσιν
οἱ
ἄνδρες
ἀγαπᾷν
τὰς
ἑαυτῶν
γυναῖκας,
ὡς
τὰ
ἑαυτῶν
σώματα. ὁ ἀγαπῶν τὴν ἑαυτοῦ γυναῖκα, ἑαυτὸν ἀγαπᾷ· |
| So husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies. he who loves his own wife loves himself; | So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. he that loveth his wife loveth himself. |
| 5:29 οὐδεὶς γάρ ποτε τὴν ἑαυτοῦ σάρκα ἐμίσησεν ἀλλὰ ἐκτρέφει καὶ θάλπει αὐτήν, καθὼς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς τὴν ἐκκλησίαν, | 29 οὐδεὶς γάρ ποτε τὴν ἑαυτοῦ σάρκα ἐμίσησεν, ἀλλ᾿ ἐκτρέφει καὶ θάλπει αὐτήν, καθὼς καὶ ὁ Κύριος τὴν ἐκκλησίαν. |
| for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church, | For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: |
| 5:30 ὅτι μέλη ἐσμὲν τοῦ σώματος αὐτοῦ. | 30 ὅτι μέλη ἐσμὲν τοῦ σώματος αὐτοῦ, ἐκ τῆς σαρκὸς αὐτοῦ, καί ἐκ τῶν ὀστέων αὐτοῦ. |
| because we are members of his body. | For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. |
| 5:31 ἀντὶ τούτου καταλείψει ἄνθρωπος [τὸν] πατέρα καὶ [τὴν] μητέρα καὶ προσκολληθήσεται πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔσονται οἱ δύο εἰς σάρκα μίαν. | 31 ἀντὶ τούτου καταλείψει ἄνθρωπος τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν μητέρα, καὶ προσκολληθήσεται πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔσονται οἱ δύο εἰς σάρκα μίαν. |
| For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh. | For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. |
|
5:32 τὸ
μυστήριον
τοῦτο
μέγα
ἐστίν· ἐγὼ δὲ λέγω εἰς Χριστὸν καὶ εἰς τὴν ἐκκλησίαν. |
32 τὸ
μυστήριον
τοῦτο
μέγα
ἐστίν· ἐγὼ δὲ λέγω εἰς Χριστόν, καὶ εἰς τὴν ἐκκλησίαν. |
| This mystery is great; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church. | This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. |
| 5:33 πλὴν καὶ ὑμεῖς οἱ καθ᾿ ἕνα, ἕκαστος τὴν ἑαυτοῦ γυναῖκα οὕτως ἀγαπάτω ὡς ἑαυτόν, ἡ δὲ γυνὴ ἵνα φοβὴται τὸν ἄνδρα. |
33 πλὴν
καὶ
ὑμεῖς
οἱ
καθ᾿
ἕνα,
ἕκαστος
τὴν
ἑαυτοῦ
γυναῖκα
οὕτως
ἀγαπάτω
ὡς
ἑαυτόν· ἡ δὲ γυνὴ ἵνα φοβὴται τὸν ἄνδρα. |
| Nevertheless, each individual among you also is to love his own wife even as himself, and the wife must see to it that she respects her husband. | Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband. |
