Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Igitur, si consurrexistis cum Christo: quæ sursum sunt quærite, ubi Christus est in dextera Dei sedens:
1If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2quæ sursum sunt sapite, non quæ super terram.
2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3Mortui enim estis, et vita vestra est abscondita cum Christo in Deo.
3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4Cum Christus apparuerit, vita vestra: tunc et vos apparebitis cum ipso in gloria.
4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
5Mortificate ergo membra vestra, quæ sunt super terram: fornicationem, immunditiam, libidinem, concupiscentiam malam, et avaritiam, quæ est simulacrorum servitus:
5Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6propter quæ venit ira Dei super filios incredulitatis:
6For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7in quibus et vos ambulastis aliquando, cum viveretis in illis.
7In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
8Nunc autem deponite et vos omnia: iram, indignationem, malitiam, blasphemiam, turpem sermonem de ore vestro.
8But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
9Nolite mentiri invicem, expoliantes vos veterem hominem cum actibus suis,
9Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
10et induentes novum eum, qui renovatur in agnitionem secundum imaginem ejus qui creavit illum:
10And have put on the new man , which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
11ubi non est gentilis et Judæus, circumcisio et præputium, Barbarus et Scytha, servus et liber: sed omnia, et in omnibus Christus.
11Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
12Induite vos ergo, sicut electi Dei, sancti, et dilecti, viscera misericordiæ, benignitatem, humilitatem, modestiam, patientiam:
12Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
13supportantes invicem, et donantes vobismetipsis si quis adversus aliquem habet querelam: sicut et Dominus donavit vobis, ita et vos.
13Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
14Super omnia autem hæc, caritatem habete, quod est vinculum perfectionis:
14And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
15et pax Christi exsultet in cordibus vestris, in qua et vocati estis in uno corpore: et grati estote.
15And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16Verbum Christi habitet in vobis abundanter, in omni sapientia, docentes, et commonentes vosmetipsos, psalmis, hymnis, et canticis spiritualibus, in gratia cantantes in cordibus vestris Deo.
16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17Omne, quodcumque facitis in verbo aut in opere, omnia in nomine Domini Jesu Christi, gratias agentes Deo et Patri per ipsum.
17And what soever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
18Mulieres, subditæ estote viris, sicut oportet, in Domino.
18Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
19Viri, diligite uxores vestras, et nolite amari esse ad illas.
19Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
20Filii, obedite parentibus per omnia: hoc enim placitum est in Domino.
20Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
21Patres, nolite ad indignationem provocare filios vestros, ut non pusillo animo fiant.
21Fathers, provoke not your children to anger , lest they be discouraged.
22Servi, obedite per omnia dominis carnalibus, non ad oculum servientes, quasi hominibus placentes, sed in simplicitate cordis, timentes Deum.
22Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:
23Quodcumque facitis, ex animo operamini sicut Domino, et non hominibus:
23And what soever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
24scientes quod a Domino accipietis retributionem hæreditatis. Domino Christo servite.
24Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
25Qui enim injuriam facit, recipiet id quod inique gessit: et non est personarum acceptio apud Deum.
25But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.
