Ephesians 4:4-32

[There is] one
<1520>
body
<4983>_,
and
<2532>
one
<1520>
Spirit
<4151>_,
even as
<2531> <2532>
ye are called
<2564> (5681)
in
<1722>
one
<3391>
hope
<1680>
of your
<5216>
calling
<2821>_;
One
<1520>
Lord
<2962>_,
one
<1520>
faith
<4102>_,
one
<3391>
baptism
<908>_,
One
<1520>
God
<2316>
and
<2532>
Father
<3962>
of all
<3956>_,
who
<3588>
[is] above
<1909>
all
<3956>_,
and
<2532>
through
<1223>
all
<3956>_,
and
<2532>
in
<1722>
you
<5213>
all
<3956>_.
But
<1161>
unto every
<1538>
one
<1520>
of us
<2257>
is given
<1325> (5681)
grace
<5485>
according to
<2596>
the measure
<3358>
of the gift
<1431>
of Christ
<5547>_.
Wherefore
<1352>
he saith
<3004> (5719)_,
When he ascended
<305> (5631)
up
<1519>
on high
<5311>_,
he led captivity
<162> (5656)
captive
<161>_,
and
<2532>
gave
<1325> (5656)
gifts
<1390>
unto men
<444>_.
{captivity...: or, a multitude of captives}
(Now
<1161>
that he ascended
<305> (5627)_,
what
<5101>
is it
<2076> (5748)
but
<1508>
that
<3754>
he
<2597> (0)
also
<2532>
descended
<2597> (5627)
first
<4412>
into
<1519>
the lower
<2737>
parts
<3313>
of the earth
<1093>_?
He
<846>
that descended
<2597> (5631)
is
<2076> (5748)
the same also
<2532>
that ascended up
<305> (5631)
far above
<5231>
all
<3956>
heavens
<3772>_,
that
<2443>
he might fill
<4137> (5661)
all things
<3956>.)
{fill: or, fulfil}
And
<2532>
he
<846>
gave
<1325> (5656)
some
<3303>_,
apostles
<652>_;
and
<1161>
some, prophets
<4396>_;
and
<1161>
some, evangelists
<2099>_;
and
<1161>
some, pastors
<4166>
and
<2532>
teachers
<1320>_;
For
<4314>
the perfecting
<2677>
of the saints
<40>_,
for
<1519>
the work
<2041>
of the ministry
<1248>_,
for
<1519>
the edifying
<3619>
of the body
<4983>
of Christ
<5547>_:
Till
<3360>
we all
<3956>
come
<2658> (5661)
in
<1519>
the unity
<1775>
of the faith
<4102>_,
and
<2532>
of the knowledge
<1922>
of the Son
<5207>
of God
<2316>_,
unto
<1519>
a perfect
<5046>
man
<435>_,
unto
<1519>
the measure
<3358>
of the stature
<2244>
of the fulness
<4138>
of Christ
<5547>_:
{in: or, into} {stature: or, age}
That
<2443>
we [henceforth] be
<5600> (5753)
no more
<3371>
children
<3516>_,
tossed to and fro
<2831> (5740)_,
and
<2532>
carried about with
<4064> (5746)
every
<3956>
wind
<417>
of doctrine
<1319>_,
by
<1722>
the sleight
<2940>
of men
<444>_,
[and] cunning craftiness
<1722> <3834>_,
whereby
<4314>
they lie in wait
<3180>
to deceive
<4106>_;
But
<1161>
speaking the truth
<226> (5723)
in
<1722>
love
<26>_,
may grow up
<837> (5661)
into
<1519>
him
<846>
in all things
<3956>_,
which
<3739>
is
<2076> (5748)
the head
<2776>_,
[even] Christ
<5547>_:
{speaking...: or, being sincere}
From
<1537>
whom
<3739>
the whole
<3956>
body
<4983>
fitly joined together
<4883> (5746)
and
<2532>
compacted
<4822> (5746)
by
<1223>
that which every
<3956>
joint
<860>
supplieth
<2024>_,
according
<2596>
to the effectual working
<1753>
in
<1722>
the measure
<3358>
of every
<1538>
part
<1520> <3313>_,
maketh
<4160> (5731)
increase
<838>
of the body
<4983>
unto
<1519>
the edifying
<3619>
of itself
<1438>
in
<1722>
love
<26>_.
This
<5124>
I say
<3004> (5719)
therefore
<3767>_,
and
<2532>
testify
<3143> (5736)
in
<1722>
the Lord
<2962>_,
that ye
<5209>
henceforth
<3371> (0)
walk
<4043> (5721)
not
<3371>
as
<2531> <2532>
other
<3062>
Gentiles
<1484>
walk
<4043> (5719)_,
in
<1722>
the vanity
<3153>
of their
<846>
mind
<3563>_,
Having the understanding
<1271>
darkened
<4654> (5772)_,
being
<5607> (5752)
alienated
<526> (5772)
from the life
<2222>
of God
<2316>
through
<1223>
the ignorance
<52>
that is
<5607> (5752)
in
<1722>
them
<846>_,
because
<1223>
of the blindness
<4457>
of their
<846>
heart
<2588>_:
{blindness: or, hardness}
Who
<3748>
being past feeling
<524> (5761)
have given
<3860> (0)
themselves
<1438>
over
<3860> (5656)
unto lasciviousness
<766>_,
to
<1519>
work
<2039>
all
<3956>
uncleanness
<167>
with
<1722>
greediness
<4124>_.
But
<1161>
ye
<5210>
have
<3129> (0)
not
<3756>
so
<3779>
learned
<3129> (5627)
Christ
<5547>_;
If so be that
<1489>
ye have heard
<191> (5656)
him
<846>_,
and
<2532>
have been taught
<1321> (5681)
by
<1722>
him
<846>_,
as
<2531>
the truth
<225>
is
<2076> (5748)
in
<1722>
Jesus
<2424>_:
That ye
<5209>
put off
<659> (5641)
concerning
<2596>
the former
<4387>
conversation
<391>
the old
<3820>
man
<444>_,
which
<3588>
is corrupt
<5351> (5746)
according
<2596>
to the deceitful
<539>
lusts
<1939>_;
And
<1161>
be renewed
<365> (5745)
in the spirit
<4151>
of your
<5216>
mind
<3563>_;
And
<2532>
that ye put on
<1746> (5670)
the new
<2537>
man
<444>_,
which
<3588>
after
<2596>
God
<2316>
is created
<2936> (5685)
in
<1722>
righteousness
<1343>
and
<2532>
true
<225>
holiness
<3742>_.
{true...: or, holiness of truth}
Wherefore
<1352>
putting away
<659> (5642)
lying
<5579>_,
speak
<2980> (5720)
every man
<1538>
truth
<225>
with
<3326>
his
<846>
neighbour
<4139>_:
for
<3754>
we are
<2070> (5748)
members
<3196>
one of another
<240>_.
Be ye angry
<3710> (5744)_,
and
<2532>
sin
<264> (5720)
not
<3361>_:
let
<1931> (0)
not
<3361>
the sun
<2246>
go down
<1931> (5720)
upon
<1909>
your
<5216>
wrath
<3950>_:
Neither
<3383>
give
<1325> (5720)
place
<5117>
to the devil
<1228>_.
Let
<2813> (0)
him that stole
<2813> (5723)
steal
<2813> (5720)
no more
<3371>_:
but
<1161>
rather
<3123>
let him labour
<2872> (5720)_,
working
<2038> (5740)
with [his] hands
<5495>
the thing which is good
<18>_,
that
<2443>
he may have
<2192> (5725)
to give
<3330> (5721)
to him that needeth
<5532> <2192> (5723)_.
{to give: or, to distribute}
Let
<4550> (0)
no
<3361> <3956>
corrupt
<4550>
communication
<3056>
proceed
<1607> (5737)
out of
<1537>
your
<5216>
mouth
<4750>_,
but
<235>
that which
<1536>
is good
<18>
to
<4314>
the use
<5532>
of edifying
<3619>_,
that
<2443>
it may minister
<1325> (5632)
grace
<5485>
unto the hearers
<191> (5723)_.
{to...: or, to edify profitably}
And
<2532>
grieve
<3076> (5720)
not
<3361>
the holy
<40>
Spirit
<4151>
of God
<2316>_,
whereby
<1722> <3739>
ye are sealed
<4972> (5681)
unto
<1519>
the day
<2250>
of redemption
<629>_.
Let
<142> (0)
all
<3956>
bitterness
<4088>_,
and
<2532>
wrath
<2372>_,
and
<2532>
anger
<3709>_,
and
<2532>
clamour
<2906>_,
and
<2532>
evil speaking
<988>_,
be put away
<142> (5682)
from
<575>
you
<5216>_,
with
<4862>
all
<3956>
malice
<2549>_:
And
<1161>
be
<1096> (5737)
ye kind
<5543>
one to another
<1519> <240>_,
tenderhearted
<2155>_,
forgiving
<5483> (5740) (5746)
one another
<1438>_,
even as
<2531> <2532>
God
<2316>
for
<1722> (0)
Christ's
<5547>
sake
<1722>
hath forgiven
<5483> (5662)
you
<5213>_.
