 <<  Efesus 4 >> 

1Therefore I, the prisoner in the Lord, exhort you to live in a manner worthy of the calling with which you were called:

2with all humility and gentleness, with patience, putting up with one another in love,

3being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace;

4one body and one Spirit (just as also you were called with one hope of your calling),

5one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6one God and Father of all, who [is] over all, and through all, and in all.

7Now to each one of us was given this grace, according to the measure of Christ’s gift.

8Therefore it says, "Ascending on high he led captivity captive; he gave gifts to men."

9Now "he ascended," what is [it], except that he also descended to the lower regions of the earth?

10The one who descended himself is also the one who ascended above all the heavens, in order that he might fill all [things].

11And he himself gave some [as] apostles and some [as] prophets and some [as] evangelists and some [as] pastors and teachers

12for the equipping of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for building up the body of Christ,

13until we all reach the unity of the faith and the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to a measure of the maturity of the fullness of Christ,

14so that we may no longer be infants, tossed about by waves and carried about by every wind of teaching, by the trickery of people, by craftiness with reference to the scheming of deceit.

15But speaking the truth in love, we are to grow into him [with reference to] all [things], who is the head, Christ,

16from whom the whole body, joined together and held together by every supporting ligament, according to the working by measure of each single part, the growth of the body makes for the building up of itself in love.

17This therefore I say and testify in the Lord, [that] you no longer walk as the Gentiles walk: in the futility of their mind,

18being darkened in understanding, alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance [that] is in them, because of the hardness of their heart,

19who, becoming callous, gave themselves over to licentiousness, for the pursuit of all uncleanness in greediness.

20But you did not learn Christ in this way,

21if indeed you have heard [about] him, and you were taught by him (just as truth is in Jesus),

22[that] you take off, according to your former way of life, the old man, who is being destroyed according to deceitful desires,

23be renewed in the spirit of your mind,

24and put on the new man (in accordance with God), who is created in righteousness and holiness from the truth.

25Therefore, putting aside the lie, speak truth each one of you with his neighbor, because we are members of one another.

26Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun set on your anger,

27nor give place to the devil.

28The one who steals must steal no longer, but instead must labor, working with his own hands [what is] good, so that he may have [something] to share with the one who has need.

29_No rotten word must proceed_ from your mouth, but only something good for the building up of the need, in order that it may give grace to those who hear,

30and do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

31All bitterness, and rage, and wrath, and clamor, and abusive speech, must be removed from you, together with all wickedness.

32But become kind toward one another, compassionate, forgiving one another, just as also God in Christ has forgiven you.
