I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called,

Therefore it says, "When he ascended on high, he led a host of captives, and he gave gifts to men."

Be angry, and yet do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,

Let no unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building others up according to the need of the moment, that it may impart grace to those who hear.

Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice.

And there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather let there be thanksgiving.

Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

for once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light

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

But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.

As the church is subject to Christ, so let wives also be subject to their husbands in everything.
