GNT

1 τὰ τέκνα, ὑπακούετε τοῖς γονεῦσιν ὑμῶν [ἐν κυρίῳ], τοῦτο γάρ ἐστιν δίκαιον.

2 τίμα τὸν πατέρα σου καὶ τὴν μητέρα, ἥτις ἐστὶν ἐντολὴ πρώτη ἐν ἐπαγγελίᾳ,

3 ἵνα εὗ σοι γένηται καὶ ἔσῃ μακροχρόνιος ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.

4 καὶ οἱ πατέρες, μὴ παροργίζετε τὰ τέκνα ὑμῶν, ἀλλὰ ἐκτρέφετε αὐτὰ ἐν παιδείᾳ καὶ νουθεσίᾳ κυρίου.

5 οἱ δοῦλοι, ὑπακούετε τοῖς κατὰ σάρκα κυρίοις μετὰ φόβου καὶ τρόμου ἐν ἁπλότητι τῆς καρδίας ὑμῶν ὡς τῶ χριστῶ,

6 μὴ κατ᾽ ὀφθαλμοδουλίαν ὡς ἀνθρωπάρεσκοι ἀλλ᾽ ὡς δοῦλοι χριστοῦ ποιοῦντες τὸ θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ ἐκ ψυχῆς,

7 μετ᾽ εὐνοίας δουλεύοντες, ὡς τῶ κυρίῳ καὶ οὐκ ἀνθρώποις,

8 εἰδότες ὅτι ἕκαστος, ἐάν τι ποιήσῃ ἀγαθόν, τοῦτο κομίσεται παρὰ κυρίου, εἴτε δοῦλος εἴτε ἐλεύθερος.

9 καὶ οἱ κύριοι, τὰ αὐτὰ ποιεῖτε πρὸς αὐτούς, ἀνιέντες τὴν ἀπειλήν, εἰδότες ὅτι καὶ αὐτῶν καὶ ὑμῶν ὁ κύριός ἐστιν ἐν οὐρανοῖς, καὶ προσωπολημψία οὐκ ἔστιν παρ᾽ αὐτῶ.

10 τοῦ λοιποῦ ἐνδυναμοῦσθε ἐν κυρίῳ καὶ ἐν τῶ κράτει τῆς ἰσχύος αὐτοῦ.

11 ἐνδύσασθε τὴν πανοπλίαν τοῦ θεοῦ πρὸς τὸ δύνασθαι ὑμᾶς στῆναι πρὸς τὰς μεθοδείας τοῦ διαβόλου·

12 ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἡμῖν ἡ πάλη πρὸς αἷμα καὶ σάρκα, ἀλλὰ πρὸς τὰς ἀρχάς, πρὸς τὰς ἐξουσίας, πρὸς τοὺς κοσμοκράτορας τοῦ σκότους τούτου, πρὸς τὰ πνευματικὰ τῆς πονηρίας ἐν τοῖς ἐπουρανίοις.

13 διὰ τοῦτο ἀναλάβετε τὴν πανοπλίαν τοῦ θεοῦ, ἵνα δυνηθῆτε ἀντιστῆναι ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ πονηρᾷ καὶ ἅπαντα κατεργασάμενοι στῆναι.

14 στῆτε οὗν περιζωσάμενοι τὴν ὀσφὺν ὑμῶν ἐν ἀληθείᾳ, καὶ ἐνδυσάμενοι τὸν θώρακα τῆς δικαιοσύνης,

15 καὶ ὑποδησάμενοι τοὺς πόδας ἐν ἑτοιμασίᾳ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου τῆς εἰρήνης,

16 ἐν πᾶσιν ἀναλαβόντες τὸν θυρεὸν τῆς πίστεως, ἐν ᾧ δυνήσεσθε πάντα τὰ βέλη τοῦ πονηροῦ [τὰ] πεπυρωμένα σβέσαι·

17 καὶ τὴν περικεφαλαίαν τοῦ σωτηρίου δέξασθε, καὶ τὴν μάχαιραν τοῦ πνεύματος, ὅ ἐστιν ῥῆμα θεοῦ,

18 διὰ πάσης προσευχῆς καὶ δεήσεως προσευχόμενοι ἐν παντὶ καιρῶ ἐν πνεύματι, καὶ εἰς αὐτὸ ἀγρυπνοῦντες ἐν πάσῃ προσκαρτερήσει καὶ δεήσει περὶ πάντων τῶν ἁγίων,

19 καὶ ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ, ἵνα μοι δοθῇ λόγος ἐν ἀνοίξει τοῦ στόματός μου, ἐν παρρησίᾳ γνωρίσαι τὸ μυστήριον τοῦ εὐαγγελίου

20 ὑπὲρ οὖ πρεσβεύω ἐν ἁλύσει, ἵνα ἐν αὐτῶ παρρησιάσωμαι ὡς δεῖ με λαλῆσαι.

21 ἵνα δὲ εἰδῆτε καὶ ὑμεῖς τὰ κατ᾽ ἐμέ, τί πράσσω, πάντα γνωρίσει ὑμῖν τυχικὸς ὁ ἀγαπητὸς ἀδελφὸς καὶ πιστὸς διάκονος ἐν κυρίῳ,

22 ὃν ἔπεμψα πρὸς ὑμᾶς εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦτο ἵνα γνῶτε τὰ περὶ ἡμῶν καὶ παρακαλέσῃ τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν.

23 εἰρήνη τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς καὶ ἀγάπη μετὰ πίστεως ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς καὶ κυρίου ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ.

24 ἡ χάρις μετὰ πάντων τῶν ἀγαπώντων τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν ἰησοῦν χριστὸν ἐν ἀφθαρσίᾳ.

1  Children,⁵⁰⁴³ obey⁵²¹⁹ your⁵²¹⁶ parents¹¹¹⁸ in¹⁷²² the Lord:²⁹⁶² for¹⁰⁶³ this⁵¹²⁴ is²⁰⁷⁶ right.¹³⁴²

2  Honor⁵⁰⁹¹ thy⁴⁶⁷⁵ father³⁹⁶² and²⁵³² mother;³³⁸⁴ which³⁷⁴⁸ is²⁰⁷⁶ the first⁴⁴¹³ commandment¹⁷⁸⁵ with¹⁷²² promise;¹⁸⁶⁰

3  That²⁴⁴³ it may be¹⁰⁹⁶ well²⁰⁹⁵ with thee,⁴⁶⁷¹ and²⁵³² thou mayest²⁰⁷¹ live long³¹¹⁸ on¹⁹⁰⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ earth.¹⁰⁹³

4  And,²⁵³² ye fathers,³⁹⁶² provoke not your children to wrath:^{3949 3361 5216 5043} but²³⁵ bring them up^{1625 846} in¹⁷²² the nurture³⁸⁰⁹ and²⁵³² admonition³⁵⁵⁹ of the Lord.²⁹⁶²

5  Servants,¹⁴⁰¹ be obedient⁵²¹⁹ to them that are your masters²⁹⁶² according²⁵⁹⁶ to the flesh,⁴⁵⁶¹ with³³²⁶ fear⁵⁴⁰¹ and²⁵³² trembling,⁵¹⁵⁶ in¹⁷²² singleness⁵⁷² of your⁵²¹⁶ heart,²⁵⁸⁸ as⁵⁶¹³ unto Christ;⁵⁵⁴⁷

6  Not³³⁶¹ with²⁵⁹⁶ eyeservice,³⁷⁸⁷ as⁵⁶¹³ menpleasers;⁴⁴¹ but²³⁵ as⁵⁶¹³ the servants¹⁴⁰¹ of Christ,⁵⁵⁴⁷ doing⁴¹⁶⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ will²³⁰⁷ of God²³¹⁶ from¹⁵³⁷ the heart;⁵⁵⁹⁰

7  With³³²⁶ good will²¹³³ doing service,¹³⁹⁸ as⁵⁶¹³ to the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord,²⁹⁶² and²⁵³² not³⁷⁵⁶ to men:⁴⁴⁴

8  Knowing¹⁴⁹² that³⁷⁵⁴ whatsoever^{3739 5100 1437} good thing¹⁸ any man¹⁵³⁸ doeth,⁴¹⁶⁰ the same⁵¹²⁴ shall he receive²⁸⁶⁵ of³⁸⁴⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord,²⁹⁶² whether¹⁵³⁵ he be bond¹⁴⁰¹ or¹⁵³⁵ free.¹⁶⁵⁸

9  And,²⁵³² ye masters,²⁹⁶² do⁴¹⁶⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ same things⁸⁴⁶ unto⁴³¹⁴ them,⁸⁴⁶ forbearing⁴⁴⁷ threatening:⁵⁴⁷ knowing¹⁴⁹² that³⁷⁵⁴ your⁵²¹⁶ Master²⁹⁶² also²⁵³² is²⁰⁷⁶ in¹⁷²² heaven;³⁷⁷² neither^{2532 3756} is²⁰⁷⁶ there respect of persons⁴³⁸² with³⁸⁴⁴ him.⁸⁴⁶

10  Finally,³⁰⁶³ my³⁴⁵⁰ brethren,⁸⁰ be strong¹⁷⁴³ in¹⁷²² the Lord,²⁹⁶² and²⁵³² in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ power²⁹⁰⁴ of his⁸⁴⁶ might.²⁴⁷⁹

11  Put on¹⁷⁴⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ whole armor³⁸³³ of God,²³¹⁶ that ye⁵²⁰⁹ may be able¹⁴¹⁰ to stand²⁴⁷⁶ against⁴³¹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ wiles³¹⁸⁰ of the³⁵⁸⁸ devil.¹²²⁸

12  For³⁷⁵⁴ we²²⁵⁴ wrestle^{2076 3823} not³⁷⁵⁶ against⁴³¹⁴ flesh⁴⁵⁶¹ and²⁵³² blood,¹²⁹ but²³⁵ against⁴³¹⁴ principalities,⁷⁴⁶ against⁴³¹⁴ powers,¹⁸⁴⁹ against⁴³¹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ rulers²⁸⁸⁸ of the³⁵⁸⁸ darkness⁴⁶⁵⁵ of this⁵¹²⁷ world,¹⁶⁵ against⁴³¹⁴ spiritual⁴¹⁵² wickedness⁴¹⁸⁹ in¹⁷²² high²⁰³² places.

13  Wherefore^{1223 5124} take unto³⁵³ you the³⁵⁸⁸ whole armor³⁸³³ of God,²³¹⁶ that²⁴⁴³ ye may be able¹⁴¹⁰ to withstand⁴³⁶ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ evil⁴¹⁹⁰ day,²²⁵⁰ and²⁵³² having done²⁷¹⁶ all,⁵³⁷ to stand.²⁴⁷⁶

14  Stand²⁴⁷⁶ therefore,³⁷⁶⁷ having your⁵²¹⁶ loins³⁷⁵¹ girt about⁴⁰²⁴ with¹⁷²² truth,²²⁵ and²⁵³² having on¹⁷⁴⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ breastplate²³⁸² of righteousness;¹³⁴³

15  And²⁵³² your feet⁴²²⁸ shod⁵²⁶⁵ with¹⁷²² the preparation²⁰⁹¹ of the³⁵⁸⁸ gospel²⁰⁹⁸ of peace;¹⁵¹⁵

16  Above¹⁹⁰⁹ all,³⁹⁵⁶ taking³⁵³ the³⁵⁸⁸ shield²³⁷⁵ of faith,⁴¹⁰² wherewith^{1722 3739} ye shall be able¹⁴¹⁰ to quench⁴⁵⁷⁰ all³⁹⁵⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ fiery⁴⁴⁴⁸ darts⁹⁵⁶ of the³⁵⁸⁸ wicked.⁴¹⁹⁰

17  And²⁵³² take¹²⁰⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ helmet⁴⁰³⁰ of salvation,⁴⁹⁹² and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ sword³¹⁶² of the³⁵⁸⁸ Spirit,⁴¹⁵¹ which is³⁶⁰³ the word⁴⁴⁸⁷ of God:²³¹⁶

18  Praying⁴³³⁶ always^{1223 3956 2540} with¹⁷²² all³⁹⁵⁶ prayer⁴³³⁵ and²⁵³² supplication¹¹⁶² in¹⁷²² the Spirit,⁴¹⁵¹ and²⁵³² watching⁶⁹ thereunto^{1519 846 5124} with¹⁷²² all³⁹⁵⁶ perseverance⁴³⁴³ and²⁵³² supplication¹¹⁶² for⁴⁰¹² all³⁹⁵⁶ saints;⁴⁰

19  And²⁵³² for⁵²²⁸ me,¹⁷⁰⁰ that²⁴⁴³ utterance³⁰⁵⁶ may be given¹³²⁵ unto me,³⁴²⁷ that I¹⁷²² may open⁴⁵⁷ my³⁴⁵⁰ mouth⁴⁷⁵⁰ boldly,^{1722 3954} to make known¹¹⁰⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ mystery³⁴⁶⁶ of the³⁵⁸⁸ gospel,²⁰⁹⁸

20  For⁵²²⁸ which³⁷³⁹ I am an ambassador⁴²⁴³ in¹⁷²² bonds:²⁵⁴ that²⁴⁴³ therein^{1722 846} I may speak boldly,³⁹⁵⁵ as⁵⁶¹³ I³¹⁶⁵ ought¹¹⁶³ to speak.²⁹⁸⁰

21  But¹¹⁶¹ that²⁴⁴³ ye⁵²¹⁰ also²⁵³² may know¹⁴⁹² my affairs,^{2596 1691} and how⁵¹⁰¹ I do,⁴²³⁸ Tychicus,⁵¹⁹⁰ a beloved²⁷ brother⁸⁰ and²⁵³² faithful⁴¹⁰³ minister¹²⁴⁹ in¹⁷²² the Lord,²⁹⁶² shall make known¹¹⁰⁷ to you⁵²¹³ all things:³⁹⁵⁶

22  Whom³⁷³⁹ I have sent³⁹⁹² unto⁴³¹⁴ you⁵²⁰⁹ for¹⁵¹⁹ the same purpose,^{846 5124} that²⁴⁴³ ye might know¹⁰⁹⁷ our affairs,^{4012 2257} and²⁵³² that he might comfort³⁸⁷⁰ your⁵²¹⁶ hearts.²⁵⁸⁸

23  Peace¹⁵¹⁵ be to the³⁵⁸⁸ brethren,⁸⁰ and²⁵³² love²⁶ with³³²⁶ faith,⁴¹⁰² from⁵⁷⁵ God²³¹⁶ the Father³⁹⁶² and²⁵³² the Lord²⁹⁶² Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ.⁵⁵⁴⁷

24  Grace⁵⁴⁸⁵ be with³³²⁶ all³⁹⁵⁶ them that love²⁵ our²²⁵⁷ Lord²⁹⁶² Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ in¹⁷²² sincerity.⁸⁶¹ Amen.²⁸¹

Vul

1 Filii, obedite parentibus vestris in Domino: hoc enim justum est.

2 Honora patrem tuum, et matrem tuam, quod est mandatum primum in promissione:

3 ut bene sit tibi, et sis longævus super terram.

4 Et vos patres, nolite ad iracundiam provocare filios vestros: sed educate illos in disciplina et correptione Domini.

5 Servi, obedite dominis carnalibus cum timore et tremore, in simplicitate cordis vestri, sicut Christo:

6 non ad oculum servientes, quasi hominibus placentes, sed ut servi Christi, facientes voluntatem Dei ex animo,

7 cum bona voluntate servientes, sicut Domino, et non hominibus:

8 scientes quoniam unusquisque quodcumque fecerit bonum, hoc recipiet a Domino, sive servus, sive liber.

9 Et vos domini, eadem facite illis, remittentes minas: scientes quia et illorum et vester Dominus est in cælis: et personarum acceptio non est apud eum.

10 De cetero, fratres, confortamini in Domino, et in potentia virtutis ejus.

11 Induite vos armaturam Dei, ut possitis stare adversus insidias diaboli:

12 quoniam non est nobis colluctatio adversus carnem et sanguinem, sed adversus principes, et potestates, adversus mundi rectores tenebrarum harum, contra spiritualia nequitiæ, in cælestibus.

13 Propterea accipite armaturam Dei, ut possitis resistere in die malo, et in omnibus perfecti stare.

14 State ergo succincti lumbos vestros in veritate, et induti loricam justitiæ,

15 et calceati pedes in præparatione Evangelii pacis,

16 in omnibus sumentes scutum fidei, in quo possitis omnia tela nequissimi ignea extinguere:

17 et galeam salutis assumite, et gladium spiritus (quod est verbum Dei),

18 per omnem orationem et obsecrationem orantes omni tempore in spiritu: et in ipso vigilantes in omni instantia et obsecratione pro omnibus sanctis:

19 et pro me, ut detur mihi sermo in apertione oris mei cum fiducia, notum facere mysterium Evangelii:

20 pro quo legatione fungor in catena, ita ut in ipso audeam, prout oportet me loqui.

21 Ut autem et vos sciatis quæ circa me sunt, quid agam, omnia vobis nota faciet Tychicus, carissimus frater, et fidelis minister in Domino:

22 quem misi ad vos in hoc ipsum, ut cognoscatis quæ circa nos sunt, et consoletur corda vestra.

23 Pax fratribus, et caritas cum fide a Deo Patre et Domino Jesu Christo.

24 Gratia cum omnibus qui diligunt Dominum nostrum Jesum Christum in incorruptione. Amen.
