Ephesians 5:1-9

1BeG1096 ye thereforeG3767 imitatorsG3402 ofG2316 GodG2316, asG5613 belovedG27 childrenG5043;

2andG2532 walkG4043 inG1722 loveG26, evenG2532 asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 youG5210, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 upG1519 forG1519 usG1519, anG2532 offeringG4376 andG2532 a sacrificeG2378 toG1519 GodG2316 forG1519 anG2532 odour ofG2316 a sweetG3744 smell.

3ButG1161 fornicationG4202, andG2532 allG3956 uncleannessG167, orG2228 covetousnessG4124, letG2228 itG1161 notG3366 evenG2532 beG2532 namedG3687 amongG1722 youG5210, asG2531 becometh saintsG40;

4norG2532 filthinessG151, norG2532 foolish talking, orG2228 jestingG2160, whichG3739 are notG3756 befitting: butG235 ratherG3123 givingG2169 ofG2228 thanksG2169.

5ForG1063 thisG3778 ye knowG1097 ofG932 a surety, thatG3754 noG3756 fornicator, norG2532 uncleanG169 personG4205, norG2532 covetousG4123 manG3778, whichG3739 isG1510 anG2192 idolaterG1496, hath anyG3956 inheritanceG2817 inG1722 theG3956 kingdomG932 ofG932 ChristG5547 andG2532 GodG2316.

6LetG538 noG3367 manG3778 deceiveG538 youG5210 withG1909 emptyG2756 wordsG3056: forG1063 becauseG1223 ofG5207 theseG3778 thingsG3778 cometh theG3588 wrathG3709 ofG5207 GodG2316 uponG1909 theG3588 sonsG5207 ofG5207 disobedienceG543.

7BeG1096 notG3361 ye thereforeG3767 partakersG4830 withG846 themG846;

8ForG1063 ye wereG1510 onceG4218 darknessG4655, butG1161 areG1510 nowG1161 lightG5457 inG1722 theG1722 LordG2962: walkG4043 asG5613 childrenG5043 ofG2962 lightG5457

9(forG1063 theG3956 fruitG2590 ofG3956 theG3956 lightG5457 is inG1722 allG3956 goodnessG19 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 truthG225),
