Ephesians 6
1ChildrenG3588G5043, obeyG5219 yourG4771 parentsG3588G1118 inG1722 the LordG2962: forG1063 thisG3778 isG1510 rightG1342. 2HonourG5091 thyG4771 fatherG3588G3962 andG2532 motherG3588G3384; (whichG3748 isG1510 the firstG4413 commandmentG1785 withG1722 promiseG1860;) 3ThatG2443 it may beG1096 wellG2095 with theeG4771, andG2532 thou mayestG1510 live longG3118 onG1909 the earthG3588G1093.
4AndG2532, yeG3588 fathersG3962, provokeG3949 notG3361 yourG4771 childrenG3588G5043 to wrathG3949: butG235 bringG1625 themG846 upG1625 inG1722 the nurtureG3809 andG2532 admonitionG3559 of the LordG2962.
5ServantsG3588G1401, be obedient toG5219 them that areG3588 your mastersG2962 according toG2596 the fleshG4561, withG3326 fearG5401 andG2532 tremblingG5156, inG1722 singlenessG572 of yourG4771 heartG3588G2588, asG5613 unto ChristG3588G5547; 6NotG3361 withG2596 eyeserviceG3787, asG5613 menpleasersG441; butG235 asG5613 the servantsG1401 of ChristG3588G5547, doingG4160 the willG3588G2307 of GodG3588G2316 fromG1537 the heartG5590; 7WithG3326 good willG2133 doing serviceG1398, asG5613 to the LordG3588G2962, andG2532 notG3756 to menG444: 8KnowingG1492 thatG3754 whatsoeverG1437 good thingG18 any manG1538 doethG4160, the sameG3778 shall he receiveG2865 ofG3844 the LordG3588G2962, whetherG1535 he be bondG1401 orG1535 freeG1658. 9
AndG2532, yeG4160 mastersG3588G2962, doG4160 the same thingsG846 untoG4314 themG846, forbearingG447 threateningG3588G547: knowingG1492 thatG3754 yourG4771 MasterG3588G2962 alsoG2532 isG1510 inG1722 heavenG3772; neitherG3756 is thereG1510 respect of personsG4382 withG3844 himG846. 10
FinallyG3063, myG1473 brethrenG80, be strongG1743 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 inG1722 the powerG3588G2904 of hisG846 mightG3588G2479. 11Put onG1746 the whole armourG3588G3833 of GodG3588G2316, thatG3588 yeG4771 may be ableG1410 to standG2476 againstG4314 the wilesG3588G3180 of the devilG1228. 12ForG3754 weG1473 wrestleG3588G3823 notG3756 againstG4314 fleshG4561 andG2532 bloodG129, butG235 againstG4314 principalitiesG3588G746, againstG4314 powersG3588G1849, againstG4314 the rulersG3588G2888 of the darknessG3588G4655 of thisG3778 worldG3588G165, againstG4314 spiritualG4152 wickednessG3588G4189 inG1722 highG2032 places. 13WhereforeG1223 take unto youG353 the whole armourG3588G3833 of GodG3588G2316, thatG2443 ye may be ableG1410 to withstandG436 inG1722 the evilG4190 dayG3588G2250, andG2532 having doneG2716 allG537, to standG2476. 14StandG2476 thereforeG3767, havingG4024 yourG4771 loinsG3588G3751 girt aboutG4024 withG1722 truthG225, andG2532 having onG1746 the breastplateG3588G2382 of righteousnessG3588G1343; 15AndG2532 your feetG3588G4228 shodG5265 withG1722 the preparationG2091 of the gospelG3588G2098 of peaceG3588G1515; 16AboveG1909 allG3956, takingG353 the shieldG3588G2375 of faithG3588G4102, wherewithG1722 ye shall be ableG1410 to quenchG4570 allG3956 the fieryG4448 dartsG3588G956 of the wickedG4190. 17AndG2532 takeG1209 the helmetG3588G4030 of salvationG4992, andG2532 the swordG3588G3162 of the SpiritG3588G4151, whichG3739 isG1510 the wordG4487 of GodG2316:
18PrayingG4336 alwaysG1722G3956G2540 withG1223 allG3956 prayerG4335 andG2532 supplicationG1162 inG1722 the SpiritG4151, andG2532 watchingG69 thereuntoG1519G846G3778 withG1722 allG3956 perseveranceG4343 andG2532 supplicationG1162 forG4012 allG3956 saintsG3588G40; 19AndG2532 forG5228 meG1473, thatG2443 utteranceG3056 may be givenG1325 untoG1722 meG1473, that I may openG457 myG1473 mouthG3588G4750 boldlyG3954, to make knownG1107 the mysteryG3588G3466 of the gospelG3588G2098, 20ForG5228 whichG3739 I am an ambassadorG4243 inG1722 bondsG254: thatG2443 thereinG1722 I may speak boldlyG3955, asG5613 IG1473 oughtG1163 to speakG2980. 21
ButG1161 thatG2443 yeG4771 alsoG2532 may knowG1492 myG1473 affairsG3588, and howG5101 I doG4238, TychicusG5190, a belovedG27 brotherG80 andG2532 faithfulG4103 ministerG1249 inG1722 the LordG2962, shall make knownG1107 to youG4771 all thingsG3956: 22WhomG3739 I have sentG3992 untoG4314 youG4771 forG1519 the same purposeG3778, thatG2443 ye might knowG1097 ourG1473 affairsG4012, andG2532 that he might comfortG3870 yourG4771 heartsG3588G2588.
23PeaceG1515 be to the brethrenG3588G80, andG2532 loveG26 withG3326 faithG4102, fromG575 GodG2316 the FatherG3962 andG2532 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 24GraceG3588G5485 be withG3326 allG3956 them thatG3588 loveG25 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 inG1722 sincerityG861. AmenG281.
