Ephesians 5

Verses of Ephesians 5 of the NKJV from the book of the bible

KJV ASV NIV NKJV

1 - Therefore be imitators of God as dear children.
2 - And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.
3 - But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints;
4 - neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.
5 - For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
6 - Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
7 - Therefore do not be partakers with them.
8 - For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light
9 - (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth),
10 - finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.
11 - And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.
12 - For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.
13 - But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.
14 - Therefore He says: "Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light."
15 - See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise,
16 - redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17 - Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
18 - And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit,
19 - speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,
20 - giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
21 - submitting to one another in the fear of God.
22 - Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
23 - For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body.
24 - Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.
25 - Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her,
26 - that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word,
27 - that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.
28 - So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself.
29 - For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church.
30 - For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones.
31 - "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh."
32 - This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
33 - Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
