Ephesians 6:5-15

HNV

NIV

5 Servants, be obedient to those who according to the flesh are your masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Messiah;
5 Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ.
6 not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men-pleasers; but as servants of Messiah, doing the will of God from the heart;
6 Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart.
7 with good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men;
7 Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people,
8 knowing that whatever good thing each one does, he will receive the same again from the Lord, whether he is bound or free.
8 because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do, whether they are slave or free.
9 You masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no partiality with him.
9 And masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Do not threaten them, since you know that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with him.
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.
12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
13 Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.
13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
15 and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of shalom;
15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
