1 I exhort therefore you, I the prisoner in Lord, worthily to walk of the calling with which you were called,

2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience; bearing with each other in love, Ephesians

3 using diligence to keep the oneness of the spirit by the uniting bond of the peace. Ephesians

4 One body and one spirit, even as also you were called in one hope of the calling of you;

5 one Lord, one faith, one dipping,

6 one God and Father of all, he over all and through all and in all to us.

7 To one but each one of us was given the favor according to the measure of the free gift of the Anointed.

8 (Therefore it says: Having ascended on high he captivated captivity, and he gave gifts to the men.

9 This but, he ascended, what is it, if not that also he descended into the lower parts of the earth?

10 The one having descended, he is also the one having ascended far above all of thew heavens, so that he might fill the all things).

11 And he gave the indeed apostles, the and prophets, the and evangelists, the and shepherds and teachers,

12 for the complete qualification of the holy ones for a work of service, for a building up of the body of the Anointed;

13 till we may attain the all to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the son of the God, to a man perfect, to a measure of stature of the fulness of the Anointed;
