1
Children, obey your parents in the Adonaï: for this is right.
2
Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise;
3
That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
4
And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Adonaï.
5
Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Ha ’ Mahshyah;
6
Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but as the servants of Ha ’ Mahshyah, doing the will of Elohim from the heart;
7
With good will doing service, as to the Adonaï, and not to men:
8
Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Adonaï, whether he be bond or free.
9
And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.
10
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Adonaï, and in the power of his might.
11
Put on the whole armour of Elohim, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of Elohim, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of Elohim:
18
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
19
And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
20
For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
21
But that ye also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Adonaï, shall make known to you all things:
22
Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.
23
Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from Elohim the Father and the Adonaï Yehoshwah Ha ’ Mahshyah.
24
Grace be with all them that love our Adonaï Yehoshwah Ha ’ Mahshyah in sincerity. Amen.
