OET-LV EPH Chapter 5

This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

5 Therefore be _becoming imitators of_ the _god as beloved children, 2 and be _walking in love, as also the chosen _one /messiah loved you _all, and gave_ himself _over for us, an_offering and a_sacrifice to_ the _god into an_aroma of_a_sweet _fragrance.
3 But sexual _immorality, and all impurity, or greediness, not it _let _be _being _named among you _all, as is _befitting to _holy ones, 4 and filthiness, and foolish _talk, or crude _joking, which not was _fitting, but rather thanksgiving.
5 For/Because this be _having /_known knowing that any sexually _immoral, or unclean, or coveter, who is an_idolater, is_ not _having inheritance in the kingdom of _the chosen _one /messiah and of_god.
6 Let_ no _one _be _seducing you _all with _empty messages, because/for because _of these things the severe _anger of_ the _god is _coming on the sons of_ the _disbelief.
7 Therefore be_ not _becoming fellow-partakers with _them, 8 for/because once you _all _were darkness, but now light in the_master, be _walking as children of _light 9 (for the the_fruit of _the light is in all goodness, and righteousness, and truth), 10 approving what is well _pleasing to _the master.
11 And not be _participating with _the the unfruitful works of_ the _darkness, but rather even be _rebuking them, 12 for the things secretly becoming by them, it _is shameful even to _be _speaking.
13 But all the things being _rebuked by the light is _being _revealed, because/for everything which being _revealed is light.
14 Therefore he _is _saying:
Be _raising, you sleeping, and rise _up from the dead, and the chosen _one /messiah will _be _shining _upon upon _you.
15 Therefore be _watching _out exactly how you _all _are _walking, not as unwise, but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17 Because _of this, not be _becoming foolish, but be _understanding what the will of _the master is.
18 And not be _being _drunk with _wine, in which is intemperance, but be _being _filled with the_spirit, 19 speaking to _themselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and singing _praises in _the heart of _you _all to _the master, 20 giving _thanks always for all things in the_name of _the master of _us, Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) chosen _one /messiah, to_ the _god even the_father, 21 being _subjected to _one _another in reverence of_chosen _one /messiah.
22 The wives be to _their own husbands as to _the master, 23 because the_husband is head of _the wife, as also the chosen _one /messiah is the_head of _the assembly, he the_saviour of _the body.
24 But as the assembly is _being _subjected to _the chosen _one /messiah, thus also the wives to _their husbands in everything.
25 The Men be _loving your wives, as also the chosen _one /messiah loved the assembly, and gave_ himself _over for her, 26 in _order _that he _may _sanctify her, having _cleansed her by _the washing of_ the _water by the_message, 27 in _order _that he _may _present the assembly he to _himself glorious, not having stain or wrinkle, or anything of _the such, but in _order _that it _may _be holy and blameless.
28 Thus the husbands are _ought also to _be _loving the wives of _themselves, as the bodies of _themselves.
The one loving the wife of _himself, is _loving himself.
29 For/Because no _one once hated the flesh of _himself, but is _nurturing and is _cherishing it, as the chosen _one /messiah also does for _the assembly, 30 because we _are members of _the body of _him.
31 For/Because this a_man will _be _leaving his father and the mother, and will _be _being _joined to _the wife of _him, and the two will _be into one flesh 32 This the mystery is great, but I am _speaking for chosen _one /messiah and for the assembly.
33 However you _all also, which each one _by one, let _him _be _loving the wife of _himself thus as himself, and the wife, in _order _that she _may _be _revering the husband.
