¶ Se sa ki fè, paske nou se pitit Bondye renmen anpil, se pou nou chache fè tankou Bondye fè.

Se pou nou viv ak renmen nan kè nou, menm jan Kris la te fè l' la, li menm ki te renmen nou, ki te bay lavi l' pou nou tankou yon ti mouton yo ofri pou touye pou Bondye, ofrann k'ap fè Bondye plezi ak bon sant li.

¶ Paske nou se pèp Bondye a, sa pa bon pou nou menm louvri bouch nou pale sou dezòd lachè, sou bagay ki sal ak vye dezi.

Sa pa bon non plis pou nou kite gwo mo, pawòl san sans ak mo sal soti nan bouch nou. Bagay konsa pa dakò ak sa nou ye. Okontrè, se pou nou lapriyè pou di Bondye mèsi.

Paske, konnen sa byen: okenn moun ki nan dezòd lachè, osinon ki nan lenkondite, osinon ki renmen lajan (moun konsa se tankou moun k'ap sèvi zidòl), okenn nan moun sa yo p'ap gen pòsyon eritaj nan peyi kote Bondye ak Kris la wa a.

Pa kite pesonn twonpe nou ak pawòl san sans yo: se poutèt bagay sa yo menm kòlè Bondye tonbe sou moun ki refize obeyi l' yo.

Nou pa gen anyen pou nou wè ak moun konsa.

Nan tan lontan, nou te nan fènwa. Men koulye a, paske n'ap viv ansanm nan Seyè a, nou nan limyè. Se sa ki fè, fòk nou mennen tèt nou tankou moun k'ap viv nan limyè a.

Paske, limyè a fè moun fè bagay ki bon, bagay ki dwat ak bagay ki vre.

10 Chache konnen sa k'ap fè Seyè a plezi.

11 Nou pa gen anyen pou nou wè ak moun k'ap viv nan fènwa, moun k'ap fè bagay ki p'ap rapòte anyen. Okontrè, denonse yo pou sa yo ye.

12 Bagay moun sa yo ap fè an kachèt, se yon wont menm pou pale sou sa.

13 Men, lè ou mete tout bagay sa yo aklè nan limyè, lèzòm va wè sa yo ye tout bon.

14 Paske, tout bagay ki parèt aklè tounen limyè. Se poutèt sa yo di: Leve non, ou menm k'ap dòmi an, leve soti nan mitan mò yo. Kris la va klere ou.

15 Se sa ki fè, konnen ki jan pou n' mennen tèt nou! Pa mennen tèt nou tankou moun ki sòt, men tankou moun ki gen konprann.

16 Pa kite okenn okazyon pase pou fè sa ki byen. Paske, jou sa yo n'ap viv la a pa bon menm.

17 Se poutèt sa, pran tèt nou byen, chache konnen sa Seyè a vle nou fè.

18 Pa soule tèt nou ak diven, sa ka mennen nou nan debòch. Okontrè, plen kè nou ak Sentespri.

19 Lè n'ap pale yonn ak lòt, sèvi ak pawòl ki nan sòm yo, nan kantik yo, ak nan chante Lespri Bondye a moutre nou. Chante kantik ak sòm pou Seyè a lè n'ap fè lwanj li ak tout kè nou.

20 Nan non Seyè nou an, Jezikri, se tout tan pou n'ap di Bondye Papa a mèsi pou tout bagay.

21 ¶ Se pou nou yonn soumèt devan lòt pa respè pou Kris la.

22 Nou menm, medam yo, soumèt devan mari nou tankou nou soumèt devan Seyè a.

23 Paske, yon mari se chèf madanm li menm jan Kris la se chèf legliz la. Se Kris la menm ki delivre legliz la ki kò li.

24 Konsa, se pou medam yo soumèt devan mari yo menm jan legliz la soumèt devan Kris la.

25 Nou menm, mari yo, se pou nou renmen madanm nou menm jan Kris la te renmen legliz la, jouk li te asepte mouri pou li.

26 Li te fè sa pou li te ka mete legliz la apa pou Bondye. Li lave legliz la nan dlo ak nan pawòl li.

27 Paske, li te vle pou legliz la parèt devan l' nan tout bèl pouvwa li, byen pwòp, san okenn defo, ni okenn tach, ni okenn pli, ni okenn mank.

28 Se pou mari yo renmen madanm yo menm jan yo renmen pwòp tèt pa yo. Yon nonm ki renmen madanm li, li renmen pwòp tèt pa li tou.

29 Pesonn pa janm rayi kò li. Okontrè, li ba l' manje, li pran swen l', tankou Kris la ap fè sa pou legliz la

30 paske nou se manm kò li.

31 Jan sa ekri nan Liv la: Se poutèt sa, gason an va kite papa l' ak manman l', pou l' mete tèt li ak madanm li, pou tou de fè yon sèl.

32 Se yon gwo verite wi Bondye fè nou konnen nan pawòl sa a. Mwen menm, mwen kwè verite sa a se pou Kris la ak legliz la.

33 Men, li bon pou nou tou: se pou chak mari renmen madanm yo tankou yo renmen tèt pa yo, epitou se pou chak madanm respekte mari yo.

Follow God’s example,(A) therefore, as dearly loved children(B) and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us(C) and gave himself up for us(D) as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.(E)

But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality,(F) or of any kind of impurity, or of greed,(G) because these are improper for God’s holy people. Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk(H) or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving.(I) For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person—such a person is an idolater(J)—has any inheritance(K) in the kingdom of Christ and of God.[a](L) Let no one deceive you(M) with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath(N) comes on those who are disobedient.(O) Therefore do not be partners with them.

For you were once(P) darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light(Q) (for the fruit(R) of the light consists in all goodness,(S) righteousness and truth) 10 and find out what pleases the Lord.(T) 11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness,(U) but rather expose them. 12 It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. 13 But everything exposed by the light(V) becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light. 14 This is why it is said:

“Wake up, sleeper,(W)
    rise from the dead,(X)
    and Christ will shine on you.”(Y)

15 Be very careful, then, how you live(Z)—not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity,(AA) because the days are evil.(AB) 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.(AC) 18 Do not get drunk on wine,(AD) which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit,(AE) 19 speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit.(AF) Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, 20 always giving thanks(AG) to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Instructions for Christian Households(AH)

21 Submit to one another(AI) out of reverence for Christ.

22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands(AJ) as you do to the Lord.(AK) 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church,(AL) his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands(AM) in everything.

25 Husbands, love your wives,(AN) just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her(AO) 26 to make her holy,(AP) cleansing[b] her by the washing(AQ) with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself(AR) as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.(AS) 28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives(AT) as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— 30 for we are members of his body.(AU) 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.”[c](AV) 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(AW) as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
