6:1 | Children <5043>, obey <5219> (5720) your <5216> parents <1118> in <1722> the Lord <2962>: for <1063> this <5124> is <2076> (5748) right <1342>. |
6:2 | Honour <5091> (5720) thy <4675> father <3962> and <2532> mother <3384>; (which <3748> is <2076> (5748) the first <4413> commandment <1785> with <1722> promise <1860>;) |
6:3 | That <2443> it may be <1096> (5638) well <2095> with thee <4671>, and <2532> thou mayest <2071> (5704) live long <3118> on <1909> the earth <1093>. |
6:4 | And <2532>, ye fathers <3962>, provoke <3949> (0) not <3361> your <5216> children <5043> to wrath <3949> (5720): but <235> bring <1625> (0) them <846> up <1625> (5720) in <1722> the nurture <3809> and <2532> admonition <3559> of the Lord <2962>. |
6:5 | Servants <1401>, be obedient <5219> (5720) to them that are [your] masters <2962> according to <2596> the flesh <4561>, with <3326> fear <5401> and <2532> trembling <5156>, in <1722> singleness <572> of your <5216> heart <2588>, as <5613> unto Christ <5547>; |
6:6 | Not <3361> with <2596> eyeservice <3787>, as <5613> menpleasers <441>; but <235> as <5613> the servants <1401> of Christ <5547>, doing <4160> (5723) the will <2307> of God <2316> from <1537> the heart <5590>; |
6:7 | With <3326> good will <2133> doing service <1398> (5723), as to the Lord <2962>, and <2532> not <3756> to men <444>: |
6:8 | Knowing <1492> (5761) that <3754> whatsoever <3739> <1437> <5100> good thing <18> any man <1538> doeth <4160> (5661), the same <5124> shall he receive <2865> (5695) of <3844> the Lord <2962>, whether <1535> [he be] bond <1401> or <1535> free <1658>. |
6:9 | And <2532>, ye masters <2962>, do <4160> (5720) the same things <846> unto <4314> them <846>, forbearing <447> (5723) threatening <547>: knowing <1492> (5761) that <3754> your <5216> <846> Master <2962> also <2532> is <2076> (5748) in <1722> heaven <3772>; neither <2532> <3756> is there <2076> (5748) respect of persons <4382> with <3844> him <846>. {forbearing: or, moderating} {your...: some read, both your and their Master} |
6:10 | Finally <3063>, my <3450> brethren <80>, be strong <1743> (5744) in <1722> the Lord <2962>, and <2532> in <1722> the power <2904> of his <846> might <2479>. |
6:11 | Put on <1746> (5669) the whole armour <3833> of God <2316>, that <4314> ye <5209> may be able <1410> (5738) to stand <2476> (5629) against <4314> the wiles <3180> of the devil <1228>. |
6:12 | For <3754> we <2254> wrestle <3823> not <3756> against <2076> (5748) <4314> flesh <4561> and <2532> blood <129>, but <235> against <4314> principalities <746>, against <4314> powers <1849>, against <4314> the rulers <2888> of the darkness <4655> of this <5127> world <165>, against <4314> spiritual <4152> wickedness <4189> in <1722> high <2032> [places]. {flesh...: Gr. blood and flesh} {spiritual...: or, wicked spirits} {high: or, heavenly} |
6:13 | Wherefore <1223> <5124> take unto you <353> (5628) the whole armour <3833> of God <2316>, that <2443> ye may be able <1410> (5667) to withstand <436> (5629) in <1722> the evil <4190> day <2250>, and <2532> having done <2716> (5666) all <537>, to stand <2476> (5629). {having...: or, having overcome all} |
6:14 | Stand <2476> (5628) therefore <3767>, having <4024> (0) your <5216> loins <3751> girt about <4024> (5671) with <1722> truth <225>, and <2532> having on <1746> (5671) the breastplate <2382> of righteousness <1343>; |
6:15 | And <2532> your feet <4228> shod <5265> (5671) with <1722> the preparation <2091> of the gospel <2098> of peace <1515>; |
6:16 | Above <1909> all <3956>, taking <353> (5631) the shield <2375> of faith <4102>, wherewith <1722> <3739> ye shall be able <1410> (5695) to quench <4570> (5658) all <3956> the fiery <4448> (5772) darts <956> of the wicked <4190>. |
6:17 | And <2532> take <1209> (5663) the helmet <4030> of salvation <4992>, and <2532> the sword <3162> of the Spirit <4151>, which is <3603> (5748) the word <4487> of God <2316>: |
6:18 | Praying <4336> (5740) always <1722> <2540> <3956> with <1223> all <3956> prayer <4335> and <2532> supplication <1162> in <1722> the Spirit <4151>, and <2532> watching <69> (5723) thereunto <1519> <5124> <846> with <1722> all <3956> perseverance <4343> and <2532> supplication <1162> for <4012> all <3956> saints <40>; |
6:19 | And <2532> for <5228> me <1700>, that <2443> utterance <3056> may be given <1325> (5684) unto me <3427>, that I may open <1722> <457> my <3450> mouth <4750> boldly <1722> <3954>, to make known <1107> (5658) the mystery <3466> of the gospel <2098>, |
6:20 | For <5228> which <3739> I am an ambassador <4243> (5719) in <1722> bonds <254>: that <2443> therein <1722> <846> I may speak boldly <3955> (5667), as <5613> I <3165> ought <1163> (5748) to speak <2980> (5658). {in bonds: or, in a chain} {therein: or, thereof} |
6:21 | But <1161> that <2443> ye <5210> also <2532> may know <1492> (5762) my <1691> affairs <2596>, [and] how <5101> I do <4238> (5719), Tychicus <5190>, a beloved <27> brother <80> and <2532> faithful <4103> minister <1249> in <1722> the Lord <2962>, shall make known <1107> (5692) to you <5213> all things <3956>: |
6:22 | Whom <3739> I have sent <3992> (5656) unto <4314> you <5209> for <1519> the same <846> purpose <5124>, that <2443> ye might know <1097> (5632) our <2257> affairs <4012>, and <2532> [that] he might comfort <3870> (5661) your <5216> hearts <2588>. |
