Ephesians 5 - NRSV & WEB

Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children.
And live in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.Walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.
But fornication and impurity of any kind, or greed, must not even be mentioned among you, as is proper among saints.But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints.
For once you were darkness, but now in the Lord you are light. Live as children of light.For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light.
For the fruit of the light is found in all that is good and right and true.For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth.
Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. For it is shameful even to mention what such people do secretly.Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.
Be careful then how you live, not as unwise people but as wise, making the most of the time, because the days are evil.Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Wives, be subject to your husbands as you are to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife just as Christ is the head of the church, the body of which he is the Savior.Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body.
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, in order to make her holy by cleansing her with the washing of water by the word.Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word.
In the same way, husbands should love their wives as they do their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.
For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.For this cause a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife. Then the two will become one flesh.
Each of you, however, should love his wife as himself, and a wife should respect her husband.Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
