King James Version of the Bible

Book of Ephesians

Chapter 6



6:1
Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
6:2
Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise;
6:3
That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
6:4
And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
6:5
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;
6:6
Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;
6:7
With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:
6:8
Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.
6:9
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.
6:10
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
6:11
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
6:12
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.
6:13
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.
6:14
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
6:15
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
6:16
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
6:17
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
6:18
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
6:19
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,
6:20
For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
6:21
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:
6:22
Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.
6:23
Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
6:24
Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen.
