절Good News Translation (1992)King James Version
1
The Unity of the Body
I urge you, then—I who am a prisoner because I serve the Lord: live a life that measures up to the standard God set when he called you.
I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
2 Be always humble, gentle, and patient. Show your love by being tolerant with one another. With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;
3 Do your best to preserve the unity which the Spirit gives by means of the peace that binds you together. Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as there is one hope to which God has called you. There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
5 There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism; One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 there is one God and Father of all people, who is Lord of all, works through all, and is in all. One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
7 Each one of us has received a special gift in proportion to what Christ has given. But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
8 As the scripture says, “When he went up to the very heights, he took many captives with him; he gave gifts to people.” Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.
9 Now, what does “he went up” mean? It means that first he came down to the lowest depths of the earth. (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?
10 So the one who came down is the same one who went up, above and beyond the heavens, to fill the whole universe with his presence. He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)
11 It was he who “gave gifts to people”; he appointed some to be apostles, others to be prophets, others to be evangelists, others to be pastors and teachers. And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
12 He did this to prepare all God's people for the work of Christian service, in order to build up the body of Christ. For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
13 And so we shall all come together to that oneness in our faith and in our knowledge of the Son of God; we shall become mature people, reaching to the very height of Christ's full stature. Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
14 Then we shall no longer be children, carried by the waves and blown about by every shifting wind of the teaching of deceitful people, who lead others into error by the tricks they invent. That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
15 Instead, by speaking the truth in a spirit of love, we must grow up in every way to Christ, who is the head. But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
16 Under his control all the different parts of the body fit together, and the whole body is held together by every joint with which it is provided. So when each separate part works as it should, the whole body grows and builds itself up through love. From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.
17
The New Life in Christ
In the Lord's name, then, I warn you: do not continue to live like the heathen, whose thoughts are worthless
This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,
18 and whose minds are in the dark. They have no part in the life that God gives, for they are completely ignorant and stubborn. Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:
19 They have lost all feeling of shame; they give themselves over to vice and do all sorts of indecent things without restraint. Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
20 That was not what you learned about Christ! But ye have not so learned Christ;
21 You certainly heard about him, and as his followers you were taught the truth that is in Jesus. If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:
22 So get rid of your old self, which made you live as you used to—the old self that was being destroyed by its deceitful desires. That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
23 Your hearts and minds must be made completely new, And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
24 and you must put on the new self, which is created in God's likeness and reveals itself in the true life that is upright and holy. And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
25 No more lying, then! Each of you must tell the truth to the other believer, because we are all members together in the body of Christ. Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
26 If you become angry, do not let your anger lead you into sin, and do not stay angry all day. Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
27 Don't give the Devil a chance. Neither give place to the devil.
28 If you used to rob, you must stop robbing and start working, in order to earn an honest living for yourself and to be able to help the poor. Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
29 Do not use harmful words, but only helpful words, the kind that build up and provide what is needed, so that what you say will do good to those who hear you. Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
30 And do not make God's Holy Spirit sad; for the Spirit is God's mark of ownership on you, a guarantee that the Day will come when God will set you free. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
31 Get rid of all bitterness, passion, and anger. No more shouting or insults, no more hateful feelings of any sort. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:
32 Instead, be kind and tender-hearted to one another, and forgive one another, as God has forgiven you through Christ. And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.
