Chapter 6

1


 

  Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.  

 

 

-

2


 

  Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;)  

 

 

-

3


 

  That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.  

 

 

-

4


 

  And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.  

 

 

-

5


 

  Servants, be obedient to them that are [your] masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;  

 

 

-

6


 

  Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;  

 

 

-

7


 

  With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:  

 

 

-

8


 

  Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether [he be] bond or free.  

 

 

-

9


 

  And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.  

 

 

-

10


 

  Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.  

 

 

-

11


 

  Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  

 

 

-

12


 

  For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].  

 

 

-

13


 

  Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.  

 

 

-

14


 

  Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;  

 

 

-

15


 

  And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;  

 

 

-

16


 

  Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.  

 

 

-

17


 

  And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:  

 

 

-

18


 

  Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;  

 

 

-

19


 

  And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,  

 

 

-

20


 

  For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.  

 

 

-

21


 

  But that ye also may know my affairs, [and] how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things:  

 

 

-

22


 

  Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and [that] he might comfort your hearts.  

 

 

-

23


 

  Peace [be] to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.  

 

 

-

24


 

  Grace [be] with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen. [To [the] Ephesians written from Rome, by Tychicus.]
