Ephesians 6:6-16

The Latin Vulgate w/ Apocrypha VULA

6 non ad oculum servientes quasi hominibus placentes sed ut servi Christi facientes voluntatem Dei ex animo

7 cum bona voluntate servientes sicut Domino et non hominibus

8 scientes quoniam unusquisque quodcumque fecerit bonum hoc percipiet a Domino sive servus sive liber

9 et domini eadem facite illis remittentes minas scientes quia et illorum et vester Dominus est in caelis et personarum acceptio non est apud eum

10 de cetero fratres confortamini in Domino et in potentia virtutis eius

11 induite vos arma Dei ut possitis stare adversus insidias diaboli

12 quia non est nobis conluctatio adversus carnem et sanguinem sed adversus principes et potestates adversus mundi rectores tenebrarum harum contra spiritalia nequitiae in caelestibus

13 propterea accipite armaturam Dei ut possitis resistere in die malo et omnibus perfectis stare

14 state ergo succincti lumbos vestros in veritate et induti loricam iustitiae

15 et calciati pedes in praeparatione evangelii pacis

16 in omnibus sumentes scutum fidei in quo possitis omnia tela nequissimi ignea extinguere

New International Version NIV

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 Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people,

8 because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do, whether they are slave or free.

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 his mighty power.

11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

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 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 firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,

15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.

16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
