1 Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children. 2 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.

3 But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned amongst you, as becomes saints; 4 nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not appropriate, but rather giving of thanks.

5 Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral person, nor unclean person, nor covetous man (who is an idolater), has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God.

6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience. 7 Therefore don’t be partakers with them. 8 For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light, 9 for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth, 10 proving what is well pleasing to the Lord. 11 Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them. 12 For it is a shame even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret. 13 But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light. 14 Therefore he says, "Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."

15 Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore, don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. 18 Don’t be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit, 19 speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; 20 giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father; 21 subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ.

22 Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the saviour of the body. 24 But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything.

25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for her, 26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, 27 that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without defect. 28 Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself. 29 For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly, 30 because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones. 31 "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." 32 This mystery is great, but I speak concerning Christ and the assembly. 33 Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

1 Be therefore imitators of Aloha, as beloved children;2 and walk in love, as the Meshiha also loved us, and delivered himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to Aloha of a fragrant smell.3 BUT fornication and all uncleanness and covetousness, let them not be even heard among you, as it becometh the saints;4 neither filthiness, nor words of folly, or of jeering, or fables, which are not necessary, but, instead of these, thanksgiving.5 But this know, that any man who is a fornicator, or impure, or covetous, or an idolater, hath no inheritance in the kingdom of the Meshiha and of Aloha;6 lest any man deceive you with vain words; for because of these cometh the anger of Aloha upon the sons of disobedience.7 Be not, therefore, participators with them.8 For you were before darkness, but now you are light in our Lord. As the sons of light, then, so walk.9 For the fruits of the light are in all goodness and rectitude and truth.10 And be discerning of that which is good before our Lord.11 And have no communion with the works of darkness, which have no fruits, but reprove them.12 For that which in secrecy they do it is execrable even to mention.13 For every thing is exposed by the light, and is revealed, and whatever revealeth is light.14 Wherefore it is said, Awake thou who sleepest, And arise from the dead, And the Meshiha shall enlighten thee.15 See then that you walk vigilantly, not as fools,16 but as the wise who redeem their opportunity, because the days are evil.17 On account of this, be not wanting in mind, but understand what is the will of Aloha.18 And be not drunk with wine, in which is intemperance, but be filled with the Spirit.19 And discourse with yourselves with psalms and with hymns and with songs of the Spirit, singing with your hearts unto the Lord.20 And give thanks always on behalf of every man in the name of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha unto Aloha the Father.21 And be subject one to another in the love of the Meshiha.22 WIVES, be subject to your husbands as to our Lord.23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as the Meshiha is the head of the church, and he himself is the Saviour of the body.24 But as the church is subject to Meshiha, so also (should) wives be unto their husbands in every thing.25 Husbands, love your wives, as also the Meshiha loved his church, and gave himself for her,26 that he might sanctify her and purify her in the laver of waters and by the word,27 and that he might constitute her a church unto himself, being glorified, and not having blemish or wrinkle or any thing like these; but to be holy and spotless.28 So it becometh husbands to love their wives, as their own bodies. For he who his wife loveth, himself he loveth.29 For no man ever hated his own body, but nourisheth it, and taketh care of it; so also the Meshiha (taketh care) of the church.30 For we are members of his body, and of his flesh are we, and of his bones.31 Because of this a man leaveth his father and his mother, and cleaveth unto his wife, and they two become one flesh.32 This mystery is great; but I speak of the Meshiha and of his church.33 Nevertheless let every one of you so love his wife as his own self; but let the wife reverence her husband.
