New King James Version

New Living Translation

  • Walk in Love

    Therefore be imitators of God as dear children.
  • Living in the Light

    Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children.
  • And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.
  • Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved usa and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.
  • But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints;
  • Let there be no sexual immorality, impurity, or greed among you. Such sins have no place among God’s people.
  • neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.
  • Obscene stories, foolish talk, and coarse jokes — these are not for you. Instead, let there be thankfulness to God.
  • For [a]this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
  • You can be sure that no immoral, impure, or greedy person will inherit the Kingdom of Christ and of God. For a greedy person is an idolater, worshiping the things of this world.
  • Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
  • Don’t be fooled by those who try to excuse these sins, for the anger of God will fall on all who disobey him.
  • Therefore do not be partakers with them.
  • Don’t participate in the things these people do.
  • Walk in Light

    For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light
  • For once you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light!
  • (for the fruit of the [b]Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth),
  • For this light within you produces only what is good and right and true.
  • finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.
  • Carefully determine what pleases the Lord.
  • And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather [c]expose them.
  • Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, expose them.
  • For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.
  • It is shameful even to talk about the things that ungodly people do in secret.
  • But all things that are [d]exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.
  • But their evil intentions will be exposed when the light shines on them,
  • Therefore He says:
    “Awake, you who sleep,
    Arise from the dead,
    And Christ will give you light.”
  • for the light makes everything visible. This is why it is said,
    “Awake, O sleeper,
    rise up from the dead,
    and Christ will give you light.”
  • Walk in Wisdom

    See then that you walk [e]circumspectly, not as fools but as wise,

  • Living by the Spirit’s Power

    So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise.
  • redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
  • Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days.
  • Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
  • Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do.
  • And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit,
  • Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. Instead, be filled with the Holy Spirit,
  • speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,
  • singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs among yourselves, and making music to the Lord in your hearts.
  • giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
  • And give thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
  • submitting to one another in the fear of [f]God.

  • Spirit-Guided Relationships: Wives and Husbands

    And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
  • Marriage — Christ and the Church

    Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
  • For wives, this means submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
  • For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body.
  • For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of his body, the church.
  • Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.
  • As the church submits to Christ, so you wives should submit to your husbands in everything.
  • Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her,
  • For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her
  • that He might [g]sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word,
  • to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word.b
  • that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.
  • He did this to present her to himself as a glorious church without a spot or wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault.
  • So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself.
  • In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies. For a man who loves his wife actually shows love for himself.
  • For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church.
  • No one hates his own body but feeds and cares for it, just as Christ cares for the church.
  • For we are members of His body, [h]of His flesh and of His bones.
  • And we are members of his body.
  • “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.”
  • As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.”c
  • This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
  • This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one.
  • Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
  • So again I say, each man must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
