1 GLT فَكُونُوا مُتَمَثِّلِينَ بِٱللهِ كَأَوْلَادٍ أَحِبَّاءَ، BSB BSB: Be imitators of God, therefore, as beloved children,
2 GLT وَٱسْلُكُوا فِي ٱلْمَحَبَّةِ كَمَا أَحَبَّنَا ٱلْمَسِيحُ أَيْضًا وَأَسْلَمَ نَفْسَهُ لِأَجْلِنَا، قُرْبَانًا وَذَبِيحَةً لِلهِ رَائِحَةً طَيِّبَةً. BSB BSB: and walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant sacrificial offering to God.
3 GLT وَأَمَّا ٱلزِّنَا وَكُلُّ نَجَاسَةٍ أَوْ طَمَعٍ فَلَا يُسَمَّ بَيْنَكُمْ كَمَا يَلِيقُ بِقِدِّيسِينَ، BSB BSB: But among you, as is proper among the saints, there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed.
4 GLT وَلَا ٱلْقَبَاحَةُ وَلَا كَلَامُ ٱلسَّفَاهَةِ وَٱلْهَزْلُ ٱلَّتِي لَا تَلِيقُ، بَلْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ ٱلشُّكْرُ. BSB BSB: Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk, or crude joking, which are out of character, but rather thanksgiving.
5 GLT فَإِنَّكُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ هَذَا: أَنَّ كُلَّ زَانٍ أَوْ نَجِسٍ أَوْ طَمَّاعٍ— ٱلَّذِي هُوَ عَابِدٌ لِلْأَوْثَانِ- لَيْسَ لَهُ مِيرَاثٌ فِي مَلَكُوتِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ وَٱللهِ. BSB BSB: For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure, or greedy person (that is, an idolater) has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6 GLT لَا يَغُرَّكُمْ أَحَدٌ بِكَلَامٍ بَاطِلٍ، لِأَنَّهُ بِسَبَبِ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ يَأْتِي غَضَبُ ٱللهِ عَلَى أَبْنَاءِ ٱلْمَعْصِيَةِ. BSB BSB: Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience.
7 GLT فَلَا تَكُونُوا شُرَكَاءَهُمْ. BSB BSB: Therefore do not be partakers with them.
8 GLT لِأَنَّكُمْ كُنْتُمْ قَبْلًا ظُلْمَةً، وَأَمَّا ٱلْآنَ فَنُورٌ فِي ٱلرَّبِّ. ٱسْلُكُوا كَأَوْلَادِ نُورٍ. BSB BSB: For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,
9 GLT لِأَنَّ ثَمَرَ ٱلرُّوحِ هُوَ فِي كُلِّ صَلَاحٍ وَبِرٍّ وَحَقٍّ. BSB BSB: for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness, and truth.
10 GLT مُخْتَبِرِينَ مَا هُوَ مَرْضِيٌّ عِنْدَ ٱلرَّبِّ. BSB BSB: Test and prove what pleases the Lord.
11 GLT وَلَا تَشْتَرِكُوا فِي أَعْمَالِ ٱلظُّلْمَةِ غَيْرِ ٱلْمُثْمِرَةِ بَلْ بِٱلْحَرِيِّ وَبِّخُوهَا. BSB BSB: Have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.
12 GLT لِأَنَّ ٱلْأُمُورَ ٱلْحَادِثَةَ مِنْهُمْ سِرًّا، ذِكْرُهَا أَيْضًا قَبِيحٌ. BSB BSB: For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret.
13 GLT وَلَكِنَّ ٱلْكُلَّ إِذَا تَوَبَّخَ يُظْهَرُ بِٱلنُّورِ. لِأَنَّ كُلَّ مَا أُظْهِرَ فَهُوَ نُورٌ. BSB BSB: But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for everything that is illuminated becomes a light itself.
14 GLT لِذَلِكَ يَقُولُ: «ٱسْتَيْقِظْ أَيُّهَا ٱلنَّائِمُ وَقُمْ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ فَيُضِيءَ لَكَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ». BSB BSB: So it is said: “Wake up, O sleeper, rise up from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”
15 GLT فَٱنْظُرُوا كَيْفَ تَسْلُكُونَ بِٱلتَّدْقِيقِ، لَا كَجُهَلَاءَ بَلْ كَحُكَمَاءَ، BSB BSB: Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,
16 GLT مُفْتَدِينَ ٱلْوَقْتَ لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَيَّامَ شِرِّيرَةٌ. BSB BSB: redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17 GLT مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ لَا تَكُونُوا أَغْبِيَاءَ بَلْ فَاهِمِينَ مَا هِيَ مَشِيئَةُ ٱلرَّبِّ. BSB BSB: Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.
18 GLT وَلَا تَسْكَرُوا بِٱلْخَمْرِ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ ٱلْخَلَاعَةُ، بَلِ ٱمْتَلِئُوا بِٱلرُّوحِ، BSB BSB: Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to reckless indiscretion. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.
19 GLT مُكَلِّمِينَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا بِمَزَامِيرَ وَتَسَابِيحَ وَأَغَانِيَّ رُوحِيَّةٍ، مُتَرَنِّمِينَ وَمُرَتِّلِينَ فِي قُلُوبِكُمْ لِلرَّبِّ. BSB BSB: Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your hearts to the Lord,
20 GLT شَاكِرِينَ كُلَّ حِينٍ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فِي ٱسْمِ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، لِلهِ وَٱلْآبِ. BSB BSB: always giving thanks to God the Father for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
21 GLT خَاضِعِينَ بَعْضُكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ فِي خَوْفِ ٱللهِ. BSB BSB: Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
22 GLT أَيُّهَا ٱلنِّسَاءُ، ٱخْضَعْنَ لِرِجَالِكُنَّ كَمَا لِلرَّبِّ، BSB BSB: Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.
23 GLT لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّجُلَ هُوَ رَأْسُ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ كَمَا أَنَّ ٱلْمَسِيحَ أَيْضًا رَأْسُ ٱلْكَنِيسَةِ، وَهُوَ مُخَلِّصُ ٱلْجَسَدِ. BSB BSB: For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, His body, of which He is the Savior.
24 GLT وَلَكِنْ كَمَا تَخْضَعُ ٱلْكَنِيسَةُ لِلْمَسِيحِ، كَذَلِكَ ٱلنِّسَاءُ لِرِجَالِهِنَّ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ. BSB BSB: Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
26 GLT لِكَيْ يُقَدِّسَهَا، مُطَهِّرًا إِيَّاهَا بِغَسْلِ ٱلْمَاءِ بِٱلْكَلِمَةِ، BSB BSB: to sanctify her, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,
27 GLT لِكَيْ يُحْضِرَهَا لِنَفْسِهِ كَنِيسَةً مَجِيدَةً، لَا دَنَسَ فِيهَا وَلَا غَضْنَ أَوْ شَيْءٌ مِنْ مِثْلِ ذَلِكَ، بَلْ تَكُونُ مُقَدَّسَةً وَبِلَا عَيْبٍ. BSB BSB: and to present her to Himself as a glorious church, without stain or wrinkle or any such blemish, but holy and blameless.
28 GLT كَذَلِكَ يَجِبُ عَلَى ٱلرِّجَالِ أَنْ يُحِبُّوا نِسَاءَهُمْ كَأَجْسَادِهِمْ. مَنْ يُحِبُّ ٱمْرَأَتَهُ يُحِبُّ نَفْسَهُ. BSB BSB: In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
29 GLT فَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يُبْغِضْ أَحَدٌ جَسَدَهُ قَطُّ، بَلْ يَقُوتُهُ وَيُرَبِّيهِ، كَمَا ٱلرَّبُّ أَيْضًا لِلْكَنِيسَةِ. BSB BSB: Indeed, no one ever hated his own body, but he nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church.
30 GLT لِأَنَّنَا أَعْضَاءُ جِسْمِهِ، مِنْ لَحْمِهِ وَمِنْ عِظَامِهِ. BSB BSB: For we are members of His body.
31 GLT «مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا يَتْرُكُ ٱلرَّجُلُ أَبَاهُ وَأُمَّهُ وَيَلْتَصِقُ بِٱمْرَأَتِهِ، وَيَكُونُ ٱلِٱثْنَانِ جَسَدًا وَاحِدًا». BSB BSB: “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”
32 GLT هَذَا ٱلسِّرُّ عَظِيمٌ، وَلَكِنَّنِي أَنَا أَقُولُ مِنْ نَحْوِ ٱلْمَسِيحِ وَٱلْكَنِيسَةِ. BSB BSB: This mystery is profound, but I am speaking about Christ and the church.
33 GLT وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمُ ٱلْأَفْرَادُ، فَلْيُحِبَّ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ ٱمْرَأَتَهُ هَكَذَا كَنَفْسِهِ، وَأَمَّا ٱلْمَرْأَةُ فَلْتَهَبْ رَجُلَهَا. BSB BSB: Nevertheless, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
