For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;

And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.

And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power.

In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.

That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,

Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:

If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:

Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

Be not ye therefore partakers with them.

For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

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

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

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

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.
