The V. Chapter.
A Be ye the note folowers therfore of God
as deare children, and walke in loue,
euen as Christ loued vs, and note gaue
him selfe for vs an offerynge and sacrifice
of a swete sauoure vnto God. As for whordome
and all vnclennes, or couetousnes, let it
not be named am&obar;ge you, as it becommeth
sayntes: note nether fylthines, ner folish talkynge,
ner ieastynge (which are not comly) but
rather geuynge of th&abar;kes. noteFor be sure, that
no whore monger, or vncleane person, or couetous
person (which is a worshipper off
ymages) hath inheritaunce in the kyngdome
of Christ and of God. note(Let no man disceaue
you with vayne wordes) for because
of these commeth the wrath of God vpon
the children of vnbeleue. Be not ye therfore
companions with them. For sometyme ye
were darknesse, note but now are ye lighte in the
LORDE.
B Walke as the children of lighte. ( note For
the frute of the sprete is all maner of goodnes,
and righteousnes and trueth:) and prone
-- --
what is pleasinge vnto the LORDE, and
haue no fellishippe with þe; vnfrutefull workes
of darknes, but rather rebuke th&ebar;. For it
is shame euen to name those thinges, which
are done of them in secrete. But all thinges
are manifest, whan they are rebuked of the
lighte. For what so euer is manifest, that same
is lighte. Therfore sayeth he: note Awake
thou that slepest, and stonde vp fr&obar; the deed,
and Christ shal geue the lighte.
noteTake hede therfore how ye walke circumspectly,
not as the vnwyse, but as þe; wyse,
and redeme the tyme, for it is a miserable
tyme. Wherfore be not ye vnwyse, but vnderstonde
what the wil of the LORDE is,
note and be not dronken with wyne, wherin is
excesse: but be full of the sprete note and talke
am&obar;ge youre selues of Psalmes, and ymnes,
and spirituall songes, synginge and makynge
melody vnto the LORDE in youre hertes
note geuynge thankes alwayes for all thinges
vnto God the father, in the name of oure
LORDE Iesus Christ, submyttinge youreselues
one to another in the feare of God.
C Let the wemen submytte them selues vnto
their hu&esset;bandes, as vnto the LORDE.
noteFor the hu&esset;bande is the wyues heade, eu&ebar;
as Christ also is the heade of the congregacion,
and he is the Sauioure of his body.
Therfore as the congregacion is in subieccion
to Christ, likewyse let the wyues be in
subieccion to their hu&esset;bandes in all thinges.
Ye hu&esset;bandes loue youre wyues, euen as
Christ loued the congregacion, note and gaue
himselfe for it, to sanctifye it, note and clensed it
in the fountayne of water by the worde, to
make it vnto himselfe a glorious congregacion,
hauynge no spot ner wrynkle, ner eny
soch thinge, but that it shulde be holy and
without blame.
So oughte men also to loue their wyues,
euen as their awne bodyes. He that loueth
his wife, loueth himselfe. For no m&abar; euer yet
hated his awne fle&esset;he, but norisheth and
cheri&esset;heth it, euen as the LORDE doth also
the congregacion. For we are membres
of his body, of his flesh and of his bones.
noteFor this cause shal a man leaue father and
mother, and cleue vnto his wife, and they
two shal be one flesh: This is a greate secrete:
but I speake of Christ and the congregacion.
Neuertheles do ye so, that euery one of
you loue his wife euen as himselfe: but let the
wife feare hir hu&esset;bande.
