Ephesians 5:15-27 Webster Bible Translation (WBT)

15. See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,

16. Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

17. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

18. And be not drunk with wine, in which is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

19. Speaking to yourselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,

20. Giving thanks always for all things to God and the Father, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

21. Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

22. Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands, as to the Lord.

23. For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the Savior of the body.

24. Therefore as the church is subject to Christ, so let wives be to their own husbands in every thing.

25. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

26. That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

27. That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
