[KJV] chapters
[1],[2],[3],[4],[5],
Ephesians 6
1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this
isright.
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.
