Ephesians 5:13-30 World Messianic Bible British Edition (WMBBE)

13. But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light.

14. Therefore he says, “Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Messiah will shine on you.”

15. Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise;

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

17. Therefore don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

18. Don’t be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,

19. speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; singing, and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

20. giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, to God, even the Father;

21. subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Messiah.

22. Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.

23. For the husband is the head of the wife, as Messiah also is the head of the assembly, being himself the saviour of the body.

24. But as the assembly is subject to Messiah, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything.

25. Husbands, love your wives, even as Messiah also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it;

26. that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word,

27. that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without defect.

28. Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.

29. For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly;

30. because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones.
