(Eph 6:1) Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
(Eph 6:2) Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;)
(Eph 6:3) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
(Eph 6:4) And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
(Eph 6:5) Servants, be obedient to them that are {your} masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;
(Eph 6:6) Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;
(Eph 6:7) With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:
(Eph 6:8) Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether {he be} bond or free.
(Eph 6:9) And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.
(Eph 6:10) Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
(Eph 6:11) Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
(Eph 6:12) For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high {places}.
(Eph 6:13) Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
(Eph 6:14) Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
(Eph 6:15) And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
(Eph 6:16) Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
(Eph 6:17) And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
(Eph 6:18) Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
(Eph 6:19) And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
(Eph 6:20) For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
(Eph 6:21) But that ye also may know my affairs, {and} how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things:
(Eph 6:22) Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and {that} he might comfort your hearts.
(Eph 6:23) Peace {be} to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
(Eph 6:24) Grace {be} with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen.
