Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Be imitators of God, therefore, as beloved children,
1γινεσθε ουν μιμηται του θεου ωσ τεκνα αγαπητα
2and walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant sacrificial offering to God.
2και περιπατειτε εν αγαπη καθωσ και ο χριστοσ ηγαπησεν ημασ και παρεδωκεν εαυτον υπερ ημων προσφοραν και θυσιαν τω θεω εισ οσμην ευωδιασ
3But among you, as is proper among the saints, there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed.
3πορνεια δε και πασα ακαθαρσια η πλεονεξια μηδε ονομαζεσθω εν υμιν καθωσ πρεπει αγιοισ
4Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk, or crude joking, which are out of character, but rather thanksgiving.
4και αισχροτησ και μωρολογια η ευτραπελια τα ουκ ανηκοντα αλλα μαλλον ευχαριστια
5For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure, or greedy person (that is, an idolater), has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
5τουτο γαρ εστε γινωσκοντεσ οτι πασ πορνοσ η ακαθαρτοσ η πλεονεκτησ οσ εστιν ειδωλολατρησ ουκ εχει κληρονομιαν εν τη βασιλεια του χριστου και θεου
6Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience.
6μηδεισ υμασ απατατω κενοισ λογοισ δια ταυτα γαρ ερχεται η οργη του θεου επι τουσ υιουσ τησ απειθειασ
7Therefore do not be partakers with them.
7μη ουν γινεσθε συμμετοχοι αυτων
8For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,
8ητε γαρ ποτε σκοτοσ νυν δε φωσ εν κυριω ωσ τεκνα φωτοσ περιπατειτε
9for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness, and truth.
9ο γαρ καρποσ του πνευματοσ εν παση αγαθωσυνη και δικαιοσυνη και αληθεια
10Test and prove what pleases the Lord.
10δοκιμαζοντεσ τι εστιν ευαρεστον τω κυριω
11Have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.
11και μη συγκοινωνειτε τοισ εργοισ τοισ ακαρποισ του σκοτουσ μαλλον δε και ελεγχετε
12For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret.
12τα γαρ κρυφη γινομενα υπ αυτων αισχρον εστιν και λεγειν
13But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for everything that is illuminated becomes a light itself.
13τα δε παντα ελεγχομενα υπο του φωτοσ φανερουται παν γαρ το φανερουμενον φωσ εστιν
14So it is said: “Wake up, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
14διο λεγει εγειρε ο καθευδων και αναστα εκ των νεκρων και επιφαυσει σοι ο χριστοσ
15Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,
15βλεπετε ουν πωσ ακριβωσ περιπατειτε μη ωσ ασοφοι αλλ ωσ σοφοι
16redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
16εξαγοραζομενοι τον καιρον οτι αι ημεραι πονηραι εισιν
17Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.
17δια τουτο μη γινεσθε αφρονεσ αλλα συνιεντεσ τι το θελημα του κυριου
18Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to reckless indiscretion. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.
18και μη μεθυσκεσθε οινω εν ω εστιν ασωτια αλλα πληρουσθε εν πνευματι
19Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your hearts to the Lord,
19λαλουντεσ εαυτοισ ψαλμοισ και υμνοισ και ωδαισ πνευματικαισ αδοντεσ και ψαλλοντεσ εν τη καρδια υμων τω κυριω
20always giving thanks to God the Father for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
20ευχαριστουντεσ παντοτε υπερ παντων εν ονοματι του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου τω θεω και πατρι
21Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
21υποτασσομενοι αλληλοισ εν φοβω χριστου
22Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
22αι γυναικεσ τοισ ιδιοισ ανδρασιν υποτασσεσθε ωσ τω κυριω
23For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, His body, of which He is the Savior.
23οτι ανηρ εστιν κεφαλη τησ γυναικοσ ωσ και ο χριστοσ κεφαλη τησ εκκλησιασ και αυτοσ εστιν σωτηρ του σωματοσ
24Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
24αλλ ωσπερ η εκκλησια υποτασσεται τω χριστω ουτωσ και αι γυναικεσ τοισ ιδιοισ ανδρασιν εν παντι
25Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her
25οι ανδρεσ αγαπατε τασ γυναικασ εαυτων καθωσ και ο χριστοσ ηγαπησεν την εκκλησιαν και εαυτον παρεδωκεν υπερ αυτησ
26to sanctify her, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,
26ινα αυτην αγιαση καθαρισασ τω λουτρω του υδατοσ εν ρηματι
27and to present her to Himself as a glorious church, without stain or wrinkle or any such blemish, but holy and blameless.
27ινα παραστηση αυτην εαυτω ενδοξον την εκκλησιαν μη εχουσαν σπιλον η ρυτιδα η τι των τοιουτων αλλ ινα η αγια και αμωμοσ
28In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
28ουτωσ οφειλουσιν οι ανδρεσ αγαπαν τασ εαυτων γυναικασ ωσ τα εαυτων σωματα ο αγαπων την εαυτου γυναικα εαυτον αγαπα
29Indeed, no one ever hated his own body, but he nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church.
29ουδεισ γαρ ποτε την εαυτου σαρκα εμισησεν αλλ εκτρεφει και θαλπει αυτην καθωσ και ο κυριοσ την εκκλησιαν
30For we are members of His body.
30οτι μελη εσμεν του σωματοσ αυτου εκ τησ σαρκοσ αυτου και εκ των οστεων αυτου
31“For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”
31αντι τουτου καταλειψει ανθρωποσ τον πατερα αυτου και την μητερα και προσκολληθησεται προσ την γυναικα αυτου και εσονται οι δυο εισ σαρκα μιαν
32This mystery is profound, but I am speaking about Christ and the church.
32το μυστηριον τουτο μεγα εστιν εγω δε λεγω εισ χριστον και εισ την εκκλησιαν
33Nevertheless, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
33πλην και υμεισ οι καθ ενα εκαστοσ την εαυτου γυναικα ουτωσ αγαπατω ωσ εαυτον η δε γυνη ινα φοβηται τον ανδρα
