in whom we were also chosen by lot, having been predestinated according to the purpose of him who works all things within us according to the counsel of his own will;

Therefore he says, Having ascended upon high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to the people.

but speaking the truth in divine love, let its grow up in him in all things, who is the head, Christ;

Therefore, having laid aside lying, speak the truth each one with his neighbors: because we are members of one another.

Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your provocation:

Let the one stealing steal no more: but rather let him labor, working with his own hands doing that which is good, that he may have to give to the one having need.

Let no corrupt communication go forth out of your mouth, but if anything is good unto edification of need, in order that he may give grace to those who hear.

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and blasphemy, depart from you, with all evil.

But all fornication, and uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be named among you, as it becomes saints;

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),

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

But as the church is submissive to Christ, so also let the wives be to their husbands in everything.
