| Ephesians 5:9 | Live and act as sons of Light for the effect of the Light is seen in every kind of goodness, uprightness and truth | for the fruit of the Spirit [is] in all goodness, and righteousness, and truth, | for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth, |

| Ephesians 5:21 | and submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. | subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of God. | subjecting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ. |
| Ephesians 5:22 | Married women, submit to your own husbands as if to the Lord; | The wives! to your own husbands subject yourselves, as to the Lord, | Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. |
| Ephesians 5:23 | because a husband is the Head of his wife as Christ also is the Head of the Church, being indeed the Saviour of this His Body. | because the husband is head of the wife, as also the Christ [is] head of the assembly, and he is saviour of the body, | For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body. |
| Ephesians 5:24 | And just as the Church submits to Christ, so also married women should be entirely submissive to their husbands. | but even as the assembly is subject to Christ, so also [are] the wives to their own husbands in everything. | But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their husbands in everything. |
| Ephesians 5:25 | Married men, love your wives, as Christ also loved the Church and gave Himself up to death for her; | The husbands! love your own wives, as also the Christ did love the assembly, and did give himself for it, | Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it; |
| Ephesians 5:26 | in order to make her holy, cleansing her with the baptismal water by the word, | that he might sanctify it, having cleansed [it] with the bathing of the water in the saying, | that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, |
| Ephesians 5:27 | that He might present the Church to Himself a glorious bride, without spot or wrinkle or any other defect, but to be holy and unblemished. | that he might present it to himself the assembly in glory, not having spot or wrinkle, or any of such things, but that it may be holy and unblemished; | 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 blemish. |
| Ephesians 5:28 | So too married men ought to love their wives as much as they love themselves. He who loves his wife loves himself. | so ought the husbands to love their own wives as their own bodies: he who is loving his own wife himself he doth love; | Even so ought husbands also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself. |
| Ephesians 5:29 | For never yet has a man hated his own body. On the contrary he feeds and cherishes it, just as Christ feeds and cherishes the Church; | for no one ever his own flesh did hate, but doth nourish and cherish it, as also the Lord the assembly, | For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as Christ also the assembly; |
| Ephesians 5:30 | because we are, as it were, parts of His Body. | because members we are of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones; | because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones. |
| Ephesians 5:31 | "For this reason a man is to leave his father and his mother and be united to his wife, and the two shall be as one." | `for this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife, and they shall be the two for one flesh;` | "For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will be joined to his wife. The two will become one flesh." |
| Ephesians 5:32 | That is a great truth hitherto kept secret: I mean the truth concerning Christ and the Church. | this secret is great, and I speak in regard to Christ and to the assembly; | This mystery is great, but I speak in regard of Christ and of the assembly. |
| Ephesians 5:33 | Yet I insist that among you also, each man is to love his own wife as much as he loves himself, and let a married woman see to it that she treats her husband with respect. | but ye also, every one in particular let each his own wife so love as himself, and the wife that she may reverence the husband. | Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband. |
