- 1If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.Εἰ οὖν συνηγέρθητε τῷ Χριστῷ τὰ ἄνω ζητεῖτε οὗ ὁ Χριστός ἐστιν ἐν δεξιᾷ τοῦ θεοῦ καθήμενος
- 2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.τὰ ἄνω φρονεῖτε μὴ τὰ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς
- 3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.γάρ καὶ ἡ ζωὴ ὑμῶν κέκρυπται σὺν τῷ Χριστῷ ἐν τῷ θεῷ
- 4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.ὅταν ὁ Χριστὸς φανερωθῇ ἡ ζωὴ ⸀ὑμῶν τότε καὶ ὑμεῖς σὺν αὐτῷ φανερωθήσεσθε ἐν δόξῃ
- 5Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:Νεκρώσατε οὖν τὰ ⸀μέλη τὰ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς πορνείαν ἀκαθαρσίαν πάθος ἐπιθυμίαν κακήν καὶ τὴν πλεονεξίαν ἥτις ἐστὶν
- 6For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:δι’ ἃ ἔρχεται ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ θεοῦ ⸂ἐπὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς τῆς ἀπειθείας⸃
- 7In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.ἐν οἷς καὶ ὑμεῖς περιεπατήσατέ ποτε ὅτε ἐζῆτε ἐν ⸀τούτοις
- 8But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.νυνὶ δὲ ἀπόθεσθε καὶ ὑμεῖς τὰ πάντα ὀργήν θυμόν κακίαν βλασφημίαν αἰσχρολογίαν ἐκ τοῦ στόματος ὑμῶν
- 9Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;μὴ ψεύδεσθε εἰς ἀλλήλους ἀπεκδυσάμενοι τὸν παλαιὸν ἄνθρωπον σὺν ταῖς πράξεσιν αὐτοῦ
- 10And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:καὶ ἐνδυσάμενοι τὸν νέον τὸν ἀνακαινούμενον εἰς ἐπίγνωσιν κατ’ εἰκόνα τοῦ κτίσαντος αὐτόν
- 11Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.ὅπου οὐκ ἔνι Ἕλλην καὶ Ἰουδαῖος περιτομὴ καὶ ἀκροβυστία βάρβαρος Σκύθης δοῦλος ἐλεύθερος ἀλλὰ ⸀τὰ πάντα καὶ ἐν πᾶσιν Χριστός
- 12Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;Ἐνδύσασθε οὖν ὡς ἐκλεκτοὶ τοῦ θεοῦ ἅγιοι καὶ ἠγαπημένοι σπλάγχνα οἰκτιρμοῦ χρηστότητα ταπεινοφροσύνην πραΰτητα μακροθυμίαν
- 13Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.ἀνεχόμενοι ἀλλήλων καὶ χαριζόμενοι ἑαυτοῖς ἐάν πρός ἔχῃ μομφήν καθὼς καὶ ὁ ⸀κύριος ἐχαρίσατο ὑμῖν καὶ ὑμεῖς
- 14And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.ἐπὶ πᾶσιν δὲ τούτοις τὴν ἀγάπην ⸀ὅ ἐστιν σύνδεσμος τῆς τελειότητος
- 15And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.καὶ ἡ εἰρήνη τοῦ ⸀Χριστοῦ βραβευέτω ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν εἰς ἣν καὶ ἐκλήθητε ἐν ἑνὶ σώματι καὶ εὐχάριστοι γίνεσθε
- 16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.ὁ λόγος τοῦ Χριστοῦ ἐνοικείτω ἐν ὑμῖν πλουσίως ἐν πάσῃ σοφίᾳ διδάσκοντες καὶ νουθετοῦντες ἑαυτοὺς ⸀ψαλμοῖς ⸀ὕμνοις ᾠδαῖς πνευματικαῖς ⸀ἐν χάριτι ᾄδοντες ἐν ⸂ταῖς καρδίαις⸃ ὑμῶν τῷ ⸀θεῷ
- 17And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.καὶ πᾶν ⸂ὅ ⸀ἐὰν ποιῆτε ἐν λόγῳ ἢ ἐν ἔργῳ πάντα ἐν ὀνόματι κυρίου Ἰησοῦ εὐχαριστοῦντες τῷ ⸀θεῷ πατρὶ δι’ αὐτοῦ
- 18Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.Αἱ γυναῖκες ὑποτάσσεσθε ⸀τοῖς ἀνδράσιν ὡς ἀνῆκεν ἐν κυρίῳ
- 19Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.οἱ ἄνδρες ἀγαπᾶτε τὰς γυναῖκας καὶ μὴ πικραίνεσθε πρὸς αὐτάς
- 20Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.Τὰ τέκνα ὑπακούετε τοῖς γονεῦσιν κατὰ πάντα τοῦτο γὰρ ⸂εὐάρεστόν ἐστιν⸃ ἐν κυρίῳ
- 21Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.οἱ πατέρες μὴ ἐρεθίζετε τὰ τέκνα ὑμῶν ἵνα μὴ ἀθυμῶσιν
- 22Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:οἱ δοῦλοι ὑπακούετε κατὰ πάντα τοῖς κατὰ σάρκα κυρίοις μὴ ἐν ὡς ἀνθρωπάρεσκοι ἀλλ’ ἐν ἁπλότητι καρδίας τὸν ⸀κύριον
- 23And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;⸀ὃ ἐὰν ποιῆτε ἐκ ψυχῆς ἐργάζεσθε ὡς τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ οὐκ ἀνθρώποις
- 24Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.ὅτι ἀπὸ κυρίου ⸀ἀπολήμψεσθε τὴν ἀνταπόδοσιν τῆς κληρονομίας ⸀τῷ κυρίῳ Χριστῷ δουλεύετε
- 25But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.ὁ ⸀γὰρ ἀδικῶν κομίσεται ὃ ἠδίκησεν καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν
