- Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children.
- And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
- But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints.
- For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light.
- For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth.
- And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
- See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
- Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. 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.
- Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word.
- So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
- 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.
- Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil:
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
