1所以，你們該效法 神，好像蒙慈愛的兒女一樣。Be imitators of God, therefore, as beloved children,
2也要憑愛心行事，正如基督愛我們，為我們捨了自己，當作和祭物，獻與 神。and walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant sacrificial offering to God.
3至於淫亂並一切污穢，或是貪婪，在你們中間連提都不可，方合聖徒的體統。But among you, as is proper among the saints, there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed.
4淫詞、妄語，和都不相宜；總要說感謝的話。Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk, or crude joking, which are out of character, but rather thanksgiving.
5因為你們確實地知道，無論是淫亂的，是污穢的，是有貪心的，在基督和 神的國裡都是無分的。有貪心的，就與拜偶像的一樣。For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure, or greedy person (that is, an idolater) has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6不要被人虛浮的話欺哄；因這些事， 神的忿怒必臨到那悖逆之子。Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience.
7所以，你們不要與他們同夥。Therefore do not be partakers with them.
8從前你們是暗昧的，但如今在主裡面是光明的，行事為人就當像光明的子女。For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,
9光明所結的果子就是一切良善、公義、誠實。for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness, and truth.
10總要察驗何為主所喜悅的事。Test and prove what pleases the Lord.
11那暗昧無益的事，不要與人同行，倒要責備行這事的人；Have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.
12因為他們暗中所行的，就是提起來也是可恥的。For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret.
13凡事受了責備，就被光顯明出來，因為一切能顯明的就是光。But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for everything that is illuminated becomes a light itself.
14所以：你這睡著的人當醒過來，從死裡復活！基督就要光照你了。So it is said: “Wake up, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
15你們要謹慎行事，不要像愚昧人，當像智慧人。Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,
16要愛惜光陰，因為現今的世代邪惡。redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17不要作糊塗人，要明白主的旨意如何。Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.
18不要醉酒，酒能使人；乃要被聖靈充滿。Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to reckless indiscretion. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.
19當用詩章、頌詞、靈歌彼此對說，地讚美主。Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your hearts to the Lord,
20凡事要奉我們主耶穌基督的名常常感謝父 神。always giving thanks to God the Father for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
21又當存敬畏基督的心，彼此順服。Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
22你們作妻子的，當自己的丈夫，如同順服主。Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
23因為丈夫是妻子的頭，如同基督是教會的頭；他又是教會全體的救主。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教會怎樣順服基督，妻子也要怎樣凡事順服丈夫。Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
25你們作丈夫的，要愛你們的妻子，正如基督愛教會，為教會捨己。Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her
26要把教會洗淨，成為聖潔，to sanctify her, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,
27可以獻給自己，作個榮耀的教會，毫無等類的病，乃是聖潔沒有瑕疵的。and to present her to Himself as a glorious church, without stain or wrinkle or any such blemish, but holy and blameless.
28丈夫也當照樣愛妻子，如同愛自己的身子；愛妻子便是愛自己了。In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
29從來沒有人恨惡自己的身子，總是，正像基督待教會一樣，Indeed, no one ever hated his own body, but he nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church.
30因我們是他身上的肢體（有古卷加：就是他的骨他的肉）。For we are members of His body.
31為這個緣故，人要離開父母，與妻子連合，。“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這是極大的奧祕，但我是指著基督和教會說的。This mystery is profound, but I am speaking about Christ and the church.
33然而，你們各人都當愛妻子，如同愛自己一樣。妻子也當敬重她的丈夫。Nevertheless, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
