Ephesians 5:1-5 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

1. Therefore become imitators of God, as beloved children,

2. and live in love, just as also Christ loved us, and gave himself for us an offering and sacrifice to God for a fragrant smell.

3. But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness, or greediness, must not even be named among you (as is fitting for saints),

4. and obscenity, and foolish talk, or coarse jesting (which are not proper), but rather thanksgiving.

5. For this you know for certain, that every sexually immoral person, or unclean person, or greedy person (who is an idolater), does not have an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
