I do not cease giving thanks for you making mention of you in my prayers;

For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

for we are his workmanship, having been created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God before prepared that we should walk in them.

But now you are in Christ Jesus, who being at one time far off have been made nigh by the blood of Christ.

For he is our peace, the one having made both one, and having broken down the middle wall of partition,

And having come he preached the gospel of peace to you, who were far away, and peace to them who were nigh:

and walk about in divine love, as Christ also loved you, and gave himself for you, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of sweet savor.

for you are knowing this, that no fornicator, or unclean person, or covetous, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

Let no one deceive you with empty words: for through these the wrath of God comes on the sons of disobedience.

For at one time ye were darkness, but now ye are light in the Lord: walk about as children of the light,

(for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth),

For it is disgraceful even to speak of those things which are done by them in concealment:

but all things being convicted by the light are made manifest; for everything made manifest is light.

always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;

being submissive to one another in the fear of Christ.

Husbands, love your wives with divine love, as Christ also loved the church with divine love, and gave himself for her;

for no one ever yet hated his own flesh; but he nourishes and cherishes it, as Christ also the church;

Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.

Ye servants, obey those who are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in purity of your heart, as unto Christ;

knowing that if each one may do good, he will receive this with the Lord, whether bond or free.

praying with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit in every place, and watching unto this same thing in all perseverance and prayer for all the saints,

and for me that the word may be given unto me in opening of my mouth, boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel,

for which I am an ambassador in chain; in order that in it I may preach boldly, as it behooves me to speak.
