ESV

1	Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.
2	And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
3	But sexual immorality and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints.
4	Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving.
5	For you may be sure of this, that everyone who is sexually immoral or impure, or who is covetous ( that is, an idolater), has no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
6	Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
7	Therefore do not associate with them;
8	for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light
9	(for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true),
10	and try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord.
11	Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.
12	For it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret.
13	But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible,
14	for anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says, “Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
15	Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,
16	making the best use of the time, because the days are evil.
17	Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
18	And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit,
19	addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with all your heart,
20	giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
21	submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.
22	Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
23	For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior.
24	Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands.
25	Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her,
26	that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,
27	so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.
28	In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
29	For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church,
30	because we are members of his body.
31	“Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.”
32	This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church.
33	However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

NIV

1	Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children
2	and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
3	But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God's holy people.
4	Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving.
5	For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person–such a man is an idolater–has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6	Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient.
7	Therefore do not be partners with them.
8	For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light
9	(for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth)
10	and find out what pleases the Lord.
11	Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.
12	For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret.
13	But everything exposed by the light becomes visible,
14	for it is light that makes everything visible. This is why it is said: “Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
15	Be very careful, then, how you live–not as unwise but as wise,
16	making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
17	Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is.
18	Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.
19	Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord,
20	always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
21	Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
22	Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
23	For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.
24	Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
25	Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her
26	to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,
27	and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.
28	In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
29	After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church–
30	for we are members of his body.
31	“For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”
32	This is a profound mystery–but I am talking about Christ and the church.
33	However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.

NLT

1	Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children.
2	Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.
3	Let there be no sexual immorality, impurity, or greed among you. Such sins have no place among God's people.
4	Obscene stories, foolish talk, and coarse jokes– these are not for you. Instead, let there be thankfulness to God.
5	You can be sure that no immoral, impure, or greedy person will inherit the Kingdom of Christ and of God. For a greedy person is an idolater, worshiping the things of this world.
6	Don't be fooled by those who try to excuse these sins, for the anger of God will fall on all who disobey him.
7	Don't participate in the things these people do.
8	For once you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light!
9	For this light within you produces only what is good and right and true.
10	Carefully determine what pleases the Lord.
11	Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, expose them.
12	It is shameful even to talk about the things that ungodly people do in secret.
13	But their evil intentions will be exposed when the light shines on them,
14	for the light makes everything visible. This is why it is said, “Awake, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will give you light.”
15	So be careful how you live. Don't live like fools, but like those who are wise.
16	Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days.
17	Don't act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do.
18	Don't be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. Instead, be filled with the Holy Spirit,
19	singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs among yourselves, and making music to the Lord in your hearts.
20	And give thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
21	And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
22	For wives, this means submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
23	For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of his body, the church.
24	As the church submits to Christ, so you wives should submit to your husbands in everything.
25	For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her
26	to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God's word.
27	He did this to present her to himself as a glorious church without a spot or wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault.
28	In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies. For a man who loves his wife actually shows love for himself.
29	No one hates his own body but feeds and cares for it, just as Christ cares for the church.
30	And we are members of his body.
31	As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.”
32	This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one.
33	So again I say, each man must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.

KJV

1	Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
2	And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
3	But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
4	Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
5	For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6	Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
7	Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
8	For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
9	For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
10	Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
11	And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
12	For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
13	But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
14	Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
15	See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
16	Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17	Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
18	And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
19	Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
20	Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
21	Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
22	Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23	For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
24	Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
25	Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
26	That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
27	That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
28	So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
29	For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
30	For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
31	For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
32	This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
33	Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
