¹A tak buďte nasledovníkmi Božími jako milované deti

¹Become, then, followers of God, as children beloved,

²a choďte v láske, jako aj Kristus miloval nás a vydal sám seba za nás ako posvätný dar a obeť Bohu na príjemnú vôňu upokojujúcu.

²and walk in love, as also the Christ did love us, and did give himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odour of a sweet smell,

³A smilstvo a vôbec akákoľvek nečistota alebo lakomstvo nech sa ani nemenuje medzi vami, jako sa sluší svätým,

³and whoredom, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints;

⁴ani mrzkosť a bláznivé reči alebo šprýmy, čo sa nepatrí, ale radšej ďakovanie,

⁴also filthiness, and foolish talking, or jesting, — the things not fit — but rather thanksgiving;

⁵Lebo to viete, že niktorý smilník alebo nečistý alebo lakomec, čo je to isté jako modlár, nemá dedičstva v kráľovstve Krista a Boha.

⁵for this ye know, that every whoremonger, or unclean, or covetous person, who is an idolater, hath no inheritance in the reign of the Christ and God.

⁶Nech vás nikto nezvodí prázdnymi rečami, lebo pre také veci prichádza hnev Boží na synov neposlušnosti.

⁶Let no one deceive you with vain words, for because of these things cometh the anger of God upon the sons of the disobedience,

⁷Teda nebuďte ich spoluúčastníkmi.

⁷become not, then, partakers with them,

⁸Lebo ste boli kedysi tmou, ale teraz ste svetlom v Pánovi. Choďte jako deti svetla -

⁸for ye were once darkness, and now light in the Lord; as children of light walk ye,

⁹Lebo ovocie Ducha záleží v každej dobrote, spravedlivosti a pravde -

⁹for the fruit of the Spirit [is] in all goodness, and righteousness, and truth,

¹⁰zkúšajúc, čo sa ľúbi Pánovi.

¹⁰proving what is well-pleasing to the Lord,

¹¹A nezúčastňujte sa s neposlušnými na jalových skutkoch tmy, ale ich radšej ešte kárajte.

¹¹and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of the darkness and rather even convict,

¹²Lebo o tom, čo oni tajne robia, je mrzko aj len hovoriť.

¹²for the things in secret done by them it is a shame even to speak of,

¹³Ale to všetko, kárané od svetla, vychádza na javo; lebo všetko, čo vychádza na javo, je svetlo.

¹³and all the things reproved by the light are manifested, for everything that is manifested is light;

¹⁴Preto hovorí: Prebuď sa ty, kto spíš, a vstaň z mŕtvych, a bude ti svietiť Kristus.

¹⁴wherefore he saith, `Arouse thyself, thou who art sleeping, and arise out of the dead, and the Christ shall shine upon thee.`

¹⁵Teda hľaďte, jako by ste sa správne chovali, nie ako nemúdri, ale jako múdri,

¹⁵See, then, how exactly ye walk, not as unwise, but as wise,

¹⁶vykupujúc si čas, lebo dni sú zlé.

¹⁶redeeming the time, because the days are evil;

¹⁷Preto nebuďte nerozumní, ale rozumejúci, čo je vôľa Pánova.

¹⁷because of this become not fools, but — understanding what [is] the will of the Lord,

¹⁸A neopíjajte sa vínom, v ktorom je prostopaš, ale buďte plnení Duchom

¹⁸and be not drunk with wine, in which is dissoluteness, but be filled in the Spirit,

¹⁹hovoriac si navzájom žalmami a hymnami a duchovnými piesňami spievajúc a hudúc vo svojom srdci Pánovi,

¹⁹speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,

²⁰ďakujúc vždycky za všetko v mene nášho Pána Ježiša Krista Bohu a Otcovi,

²⁰giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the God and Father;

²¹podriaďujúc sa jedni druhým v bázni Božej.

²¹subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of God.

²²Ženy, podriaďujte sa vlastným mužom ako Pánovi;

²²The wives! to your own husbands subject yourselves, as to the Lord,

²³lebo muž je hlavou ženy, jako aj Kristus je hlavou cirkvi, a on je Spasiteľom tela.

²³because the husband is head of the wife, as also the Christ [is] head of the assembly, and he is saviour of the body,

²⁴Ale jako sa cirkev podriaďuje Kristovi, tak aj ženy vlastným mužom vo všetkom.

²⁴but even as the assembly is subject to Christ, so also [are] the wives to their own husbands in everything.

²⁵Vy, mužovia, milujte svoje ženy, jako aj Kristus miloval cirkev a vydal sám seba za ňu,

²⁵The husbands! love your own wives, as also the Christ did love the assembly, and did give himself for it,

²⁶aby ju posvätil očistiac ju kúpeľom vody, slovom,

²⁶that he might sanctify it, having cleansed [it] with the bathing of the water in the saying,

²⁷aby si ju postavil pred seba slávnu, cirkev, nemajúcu škvrny alebo vrásky alebo niečoho takého, ale aby bola svätá a bezvadná.

²⁷that 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;

²⁸Tak sú povinní aj mužovia milovať svoje ženy jako svoje vlastné telá. Kto miluje svoju ženu, sám seba miluje.

²⁸so ought the husbands to love their own wives as their own bodies: he who is loving his own wife — himself he doth love;

²⁹Lebo veď nebolo nikdy nikoho, kto by bol nenávidel svojho tela, ale ho každý chová a opatruje ako aj Pán cirkev,

²⁹for no one ever his own flesh did hate, but doth nourish and cherish it, as also the Lord — the assembly,

³⁰lebo sme údami jeho tela, z jeho mäsa a z jeho kostí.

³⁰because members we are of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones;

³¹Zato opustí človek svojho otca i svoju mať a pripojí sa ku svojej žene, a tí dvaja budú v jedno telo.

³¹`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;`

³²Toto tajomstvo je veľké, ale ja hovorím vzťahom na Krista a vzťahom na cirkev.

³²this secret is great, and I speak in regard to Christ and to the assembly;

³³Avšak aj vy, jeden každý osobitne tak nech miluje svoju ženu jako sám seba, a žena aby sa bála muža.

³³but ye also, every one in particular — let each his own wife so love as himself, and the wife — that she may reverence the husband.
