Ephesians 6
Geneva Bible 1599
1Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
2Honour thy father and mother (which is the first commandement with promise)
3That it may be well with thee, and that thou mayst liue long on earth.
4And ye, fathers, prouoke not your children to wrath: but bring them vp in instruction and information of the Lord.
5Seruants, be obedient vnto them that are your masters, according to the flesh, with feare and trembling in singlenesse of your hearts as vnto Christ,
6Not with seruice to the eye, as men pleasers, but as the seruants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,
7With good will, seruing the Lord, and not men.
8And knowe ye that whatsoeuer good thing any man doeth, that same shall he receiue of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.
9And ye masters, doe the same things vnto them, putting away threatning: and know that euen your master also is in heauen, neither is there respect of person with him.
10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the assaultes of the deuil.
12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, and against the worldly gouernours, the princes of the darkenesse of this worlde, against spirituall wickednesses, which are in ye hie places.
13For this cause take vnto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to resist in the euill day, and hauing finished all things, stand fast.
