• 1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
• 2 Honour thy father and mother, (which is the first commandement with promise,)
• 3 That it may bee well with thee, and thou maiest liue long on the earth.
• 4 And yee fathers, prouoke not your children to wrath: but bring them vp in the nourture and admonition of the Lord.
• 5 Seruants, bee obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with feare and trembling, in singlenesse of your heart, as vnto Christ:
• 6 Not with eye seruice as men pleasers, but as the seruants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart:
• 7 With good will doing seruice, as to the Lord, and not to men,
• 8 Knowing that whatsoeuer good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receiue of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.
• 9 And ye masters, do the same things vnto them, forbearing threatning: knowing that your master also is in heauen, neither is there respect of persons with him.
• 10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, & in the power of his might.
• 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the deuill.
• 12 For wee wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darknes of this world, against spirituall wickednes in high places.
• 13 Wherfore take vnto you the whole armour of God, that yee may be able to withstand in the euill day, and hauing done all, to stand.
• 14 Stand therefore, hauing your loynes girt about with trueth, and hauing on the breast-plate of righteousnesse:
• 15 And your feete shod with the preparation of the Gospel of peace.
• 16 Aboue all, taking the shielde of Faith, wherewith yee shall bee able to quench all the fierie dartes of the wicked.
• 17 And take the helmet of saluation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
• 18 Praying alwayes with all prayer and supplication in the spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseuerance, and supplication for all Saints,
• 19 And for mee, that vtterance may be giuen vnto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make knowen the mysterie of the Gospel:
• 20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds, that therein I may speake boldly, as I ought to speake.
• 21 But that yee also may know my affaires, and how I doe, Tychicus a beloued brother, and faithfull minister in the Lord, shall make knowen to you all things.
• 22 Whom I haue sent vnto you for the same purpose, that yee might know our affaires, and that he might comfort your hearts.
• 23 Peace be to the brethren, and loue, with faith from God the Father, and the Lord Iesus Christ.
• 24 Grace be with all them that loue our Lord Iesus Christ in sinceritie. Written from Rome vnto the Ephesians by Tychicus.
