      | ¶ | Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. | |
| Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) | ||
| That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. | ||
| And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. | ||
| ¶ | Servants, be obedient to them that are [your] masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ; | |
| Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart; | ||
| With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men: | ||
| Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether [he be] bond or free. | ||
| And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him. | ||
 | ¶ | Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. | |
| Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. | ||
| For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places]. | ||
| Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. | ||
| Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; | ||
| And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; | ||
| Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. | ||
| And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: | ||
| Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; | ||
| And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, | ||
| For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. | ||
| ¶ | But that ye also may know my affairs, [and] how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things: | |
| Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and [that] he might comfort your hearts. | ||
| Peace [be] to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. | ||
| Grace [be] with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen. [[[To [the] Ephesians written from Rome, by Tychicus.]]] |
