=====Ephesians / Efeze 5 ===== ^ [[bijbels:kjv:|Terug naar Bijbel index]] ^ [[bijbels:kjv:tekst:efeze|Terug naar Boek index]] ^ \\ \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-1|1]] Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-2|2]] 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. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-3|3]] But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-4|4]] Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-5|5]] For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-6|6]] Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-7|7]] Be not ye therefore partakers with them. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-8|8]] For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-9|9]] (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-10|10]] Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-11|11]] And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-12|12]] For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-13|13]] But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-14|14]] Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-15|15]] See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-16|16]] Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-17|17]] Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-18|18]] And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-19|19]] Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-20|20]] Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-21|21]] Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-22|22]] Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-23|23]] 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. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-24|24]] Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-25|25]] Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-26|26]] That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-27|27]] That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-28|28]] So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-29|29]] For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-30|30]] For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-31|31]] 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. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-32|32]] This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. \\ [[commentaar:efeze5-33|33]] Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband. ^ [[efeze4| vorig hoofdstuk]] ^ [[efeze6|volgend hoofdstuk]] ^
