8
Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivitya captive, and gave gifts unto men.
9
(Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?
10
He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fillb all things.)
11
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
12
For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
13
Till we all come inc 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
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
But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
16
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
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
Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindnessd of their heart:
19
Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
22
That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
25
Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
28
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 givef to him that needeth*.
29
Let no* corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good tog the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
