1 Peter 2: Hebrews and English:

Hebrews:

הפרק 2

ועתה הסירו מכם כל רשע וכל מרמה וחנפה וקנאה וכל לשון רע׃

2 וכעללים אשר מקרוב נולדו התאוו לחלב השכלי והזך למען תגדלו בו׃

3 אם אמנם טעמתם כי טוב האדון׃

4 אשר נגשתם אליו אל אבן חיה אשר מאסו בה בני האדם והיא נבחרה ויקרה לאלהים׃

5 ונבניתם גם אתם כאבנים חיות לבית רוחני לכהנת קדש להעלות זבחי רוח לרצון לאלהים בישוע המשיח׃

6 וזה הוא שאמר הכתוב הנני יסד בציון אבן פנה אבן בחן ויקרה והמאמין בה לא יבוש׃

7 לכן לכם המאמינים היקר אבל לסוררים האבן אשר מאסו הבונים היתה לראש פנה ולאבן נגף ולצור מכשל׃

8 והם נכשלו יען לא שמעו לדבר ולזאת גם נועדו׃

9 ואתם הנכם זרע נבחר ממלכת כהנים וגוי קדוש ועם סגלה למען תספרו תהלות הקורא אתכם מחשך אל אורו הנפלא׃

10 אשר לפנים לא עם הייתם ועתה עם אלהים ואשר לפנים לא רחמו ועתה מרחמים׃

11 אהובים אזהירכם כגרים ותושבים הנזרו מתאות הבשר המתגרות בנפש׃

12 והיטיבו דרככם בגוים למען יביטו אל מעשיכם הטובים והיה תחת אשר חרפו אתכם כפעלי און יכבדו את האלהים ביום הפקדה׃

13 והכנעו לכל פקדת אדם בגלל האדון אם למלך כראוי לראש׃

14 אם למשלים כראוי לשלוחים מאתו לנקמת פעלי און ולתהלת עשי טוב׃

15 כי כן הוא חפץ אלהים אשר בעשותכם הטוב תסכרו את פי אולת האנשים אשר אין בם דעת׃

16 כחפשים ולא כאלו היתה לכם החפשה למכסה הרעה כי אם כעבדי אלהים׃

17 נהגו כבוד בכל איש אהבו את האחים יראו את אלהים כבדו את המלך׃

18 העבדים הכנעו לפני אדניכם בכל יראה לא לפני הטובים והענוים לבד כי אם גם לפני העקשים׃

19 כי חסד הוא לאיש אם ישבע ממררים ויענה חנם למען דעת האלהים׃

20 כי אם חטא תחטאו וסבלתם מכות אגרוף מה תתהללו אך אם תענו וסבלתם בעשותכם הטוב חסד הוא מלפני אלהים׃

21 כי לזאת נקראתם כי גם המשיח ענה בעבורכם והשאיר לכם מופת ללכת בעקבותיו׃

22 אשר חטא לא עשה ולא מרמה בפיו׃

23 אשר שמע חרפתו ולא השיב נענה ולא גער כי אם מסר דינו לשפט צדק ואת חטאתנו הוא נשא בגויתו על העץ׃

24 למען נחיה לצדקה מאחר שנפטרנו מן החטאים׃

25 אשר בחברתו נרפא לכם כי הייתם כצאן אבדות ועתה שבתם אל הרעה פקיד נפשתיכם׃

English:

"So get rid of all evil behavior. Be done with all deceit, hypocrisy, jealousy, and all unkind speech. Like newborn babies, you must crave pure spiritual milk so that you will grow into a full experience of salvation. Cry out for this nourishment, now that you have had a taste of the Lord’s kindness.

Living Stones for God’s House

You are coming to Christ, who is the living cornerstone of God’s temple. He was rejected by people, but he was chosen by God for great honor.

And you are living stones that God is building into his spiritual temple. What’s more, you are his holy priests. Through the mediation of Jesus Christ, you offer spiritual sacrifices that please God. As the Scriptures say,

“I am placing a cornerstone in Jerusalem,

chosen for great honor,

and anyone who trusts in him

will never be disgraced.”

Yes, you who trust him recognize the honor God has given him. But for those who reject him,

“The stone that the builders rejected

has now become the cornerstone.”

And,

“He is the stone that makes people stumble,

the rock that makes them fall.”

They stumble because they do not obey God’s word, and so they meet the fate that was planned for them.

But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.

“Once you had no identity as a people;

now you are God’s people.

Once you received no mercy;

now you have received God’s mercy.”

Dear friends, I warn you as “temporary residents and foreigners” to keep away from worldly desires that wage war against your very souls. Be careful to live properly among your unbelieving neighbors. Then even if they accuse you of doing wrong, they will see your honorable behavior, and they will give honor to God when he judges the world.

Respecting People in Authority

For the Lord’s sake, submit to all human authority—whether the king as head of state, or the officials he has appointed. For the king has sent them to punish those who do wrong and to honor those who do right.

It is God’s will that your honorable lives should silence those ignorant people who make foolish accusations against you. For you are free, yet you are God’s slaves, so don’t use your freedom as an excuse to do evil. Respect everyone, and love the family of believers. Fear God, and respect the king.

Slaves

You who are slaves must submit to your masters with all respect. Do what they tell you—not only if they are kind and reasonable, but even if they are cruel. For God is pleased when, conscious of his will, you patiently endure unjust treatment. Of course, you get no credit for being patient if you are beaten for doing wrong. But if you suffer for doing good and endure it patiently, God is pleased with you.

For God called you to do good, even if it means suffering, just as Christ suffered for you. He is your example, and you must follow in his steps.

He never sinned,

nor ever deceived anyone.

He did not retaliate when he was insulted,

nor threaten revenge when he suffered.

He left his case in the hands of God,

who always judges fairly.

He personally carried our sins

in his body on the cross

so that we can be dead to sin

and live for what is right.

By his wounds

you are healed.

Once you were like sheep

who wandered away.

But now you have turned to your Shepherd,

the Guardian of your souls."

What is God's Will for my life!!

Philippians 4:19:

"And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."

Psalm 37:4:

"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart."

John 10:10:

"The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

John 14:13-14:

"And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ask anything in My name, I will do it."

Ephesians 3:20:

"Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us."

God's will for your life is to prosper!! A good joyful healthy prosperous blessed life so that the world can see Jesus in you and you be a blessing to others!! Not to hold on to your life, Not to be miserable, Not to be poverty minded!! Stop believing the enemies's lies!! Jesus said you can asked anything in His Name!! Jeremiah 29:11: "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jesus said the reason why He came: "I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." We are here on this earth because of God's calling on our lives. Philippians 4:19: "And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." We are not here to live for ourselves!!! We are here to live for Him!! And you can be a blessing for others!! It is about time that we asked the Lord what is our calling and start doing it!!And God said He will take care of you!! God doesn't lie, He cannot lie!!

The Word of God!!

Joshua 1:8:

"Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do."

Psalm 1:1-2:

"Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,and who meditates on his law day and night."

Romans 10:17:

"So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."

Hebrews 4:12:

"For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart."

Matthew 4:4:

"Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’ "

James 1:22:

"But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves."

2 Timothy 3:16-17:

"All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."

Study the Word, Meditate on the Word day and night, Hear and do the Word of God, Eat and stand on the Word of God!!It is food for your soul!! The Word of God is not a story book but a lifestyle!! Psalm 1 said Blessed is the one who meditates on the Word of God day and night!!Your faith will also grow!! The more you spent time in God's Word...How greater and stronger your faith will be!!!

Words have power!!

Genesis 1:3:

"And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light."

Hebrews 11:3:

"By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible."

Psalm 33:9

"For He spoke, and it came to be; He commanded, and it stood firm."

Genesis 1:27:

"So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them."

Isaiah 55:11:

"So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it."

Romans 4:17:

"as it is written, “I have made you a father of many nations”) in the presence of Him whom he believed—God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did."

Proverbs 18:21:

"Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits."

Matthew 7:24:

“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock."

God created the universe with words. By words the creation was created!! And we are created in His image. When Jesus did miracles He spoke! When His disciples did miracles they spoke!! Isaiah wrote, "So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it." Be very careful the words you are using. In Proverbs it says "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits." Speak life over your life. Matthew 4:4: "Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’ " Speak what the Word of God said!

3. “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!"

9. "If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”

10. "Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart."

11. "At Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night, and God said, “Ask what I shall give you.”

8. Hebrews 9:

9. John 10:

1. "And when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord. Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup."

2. "And since we have a great High Priest who rules over God’s house, let us go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting him. For our guilty consciences have been sprinkled with Christ’s blood to make us clean, and our bodies have been washed with pure water."

3. "Under the old system, the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer could cleanse people’s bodies from ceremonial impurity. Just think how much more the blood of Christ will purify our consciences from sinful deeds so that we can worship the living God. For by the power of the eternal Spirit, Christ offered himself to God as a perfect sacrifice for our sins."

4. "But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God."

5. "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly."

6. "If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land."

7. "And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."

8. "And so, dear brothers and sisters, we can boldly enter heaven’s Most Holy Place because of the blood of Jesus. By his death, Jesus opened a new and life-giving way through the curtain into the Most Holy Place."

9. "So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."

10. "For God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrificed his life, shedding his blood. This sacrifice shows that God was being fair when he held back and did not punish those who sinned in times past."

11. "So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you."

2. "We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair. We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed. Through suffering, our bodies continue to share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies. Yes, we live under constant danger of death because we serve Jesus, so that the life of Jesus will be evident in our dying bodies. So we live in the face of death, but this has resulted in eternal life for you."

If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. But let none of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evildoer or as a meddler. Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name."

3. "O God, your ways are holy. Is there any god as mighty as you? You are the God of great wonders! You demonstrate your awesome power among the nations."

4. "Then I will praise God’s name with singing, and I will honor him with thanksgiving. For this will please the Lord more than sacrificing cattle, more than presenting a bull with its horns and hooves."

Psalm 91:

"Those who live in the shelter of the Most High

    will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
This I declare about the Lord:
He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;
    he is my God, and I trust him.
For he will rescue you from every trap
    and protect you from deadly disease.
He will cover you with his feathers.
    He will shelter you with his wings.
    His faithful promises are your armor and protection.
Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night,
    nor the arrow that flies in the day.
Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness,
    nor the disaster that strikes at midday.
Though a thousand fall at your side,
    though ten thousand are dying around you,
    these evils will not touch you.
Just open your eyes,
    and see how the wicked are punished.

If you make the Lord your refuge,
    if you make the Most High your shelter,
no evil will conquer you;
    no plague will come near your home.
For he will order his angels
    to protect you wherever you go.
They will hold you up with their hands
    so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.
You will trample upon lions and cobras;
    you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!

The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me.
    I will protect those who trust in my name.
When they call on me, I will answer;
    I will be with them in trouble.
    I will rescue and honor them.
I will reward them with a long life
    and give them my salvation."

SALVATION PRAYER:

Heavenly Father, I acknowledge that I am a sinner. I come to you and ask you to forgive me for my sins. I surrender my life to you. Come into my life and guide me. Show me your will and not my will. In Jesus Name Amen!!

To enter the Kingdom of God you must be Born Again!!

1. John 3: "Jesus replied, I tell you the truth, unless you are born again, you cannot see the Kingdom of God."

2. John 3: "So don't be surprised when I say, 'You must be born again.' "

3. Matthew 7: "You can enter God's Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for many who choose that way. But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it."

4. Matthew 7: "Not everyone who calls out to me, 'Lord! Lord!' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter."

5. Matthew 7: "On judgment day many will say to me, 'Lord! Lord!' We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.' But I will reply, 'I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God's laws."

6. 1 Peter 1: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead."

10. 1 Peter 1: "for you have been born again not of seed which is perishable but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring word of God."

הפרק 1

פטרוס שליח ישוע המשיח אל תושבי תפוצות פנטוס גלטיא קפודקיא אסיא וביתוניא׃

2 הנבחרים מקדם כפי דעת אלהים האב בקדוש הרוח אל משמעת ישוע המשיח ואל הזית דמו חסד ושלום למכביר יהיו לכם׃

3 ברוך האלהים אבי אדנינו ישוע המשיח אשר כרב רחמיו שב והוליד אתנו לתקוה חיה בהקמת ישוע המשיח מעם המתים׃

4 לנחלה אשר לא תשחת ולא תגאל ולא תבל הצפונה בשמים לכם׃

5 הנשמרים בעז אלהים על יד האמונה לתשועה העתידה להגלות בעת קץ׃

6 אשר בה תגילו אתם המתעצבים עתה מעט לפי הצרך במסת שנות׃

7 למען תמצא אמונתכם המזקקה יקרה הרבה מן הזהב האבד הצרוף באש לתהלה ולכבוד ולתפארת בהתגלות ישוע המשיח׃

8 אשר אהבתם ולא ראיתם ואשר עתה תאמינו בו בלא ראות אתו ובכן תגילו בשמחה מפארה עצמה מספר׃

9 בקחתכם עקב אמונתכם תשועה לנפשתיכם׃

10 את התשועה אשר עליה חקרו ודרשו הנביאים הנבאים על החסד השמור לכם׃

11 בחקרם לדעת מתי ואיך תהיה העת אשר הודיעה רוח המשיח אשר בקרבם בהגידו מראש את ענויי המשיח ואת הגדלות אשר אחריהם׃

12 ונגלה להם כי לא לפנשם כי אם לנו שרתו בדברים ההם אשר הגד לכם עתה על פי המבשרים אתכם ברוח הקדש השלוח משמים דברים אשר מלאכי אלהים חמדו להשקיף אל תוכם׃

13 לכן חגרו מתני שכלכם התעוררו וקוו קוה לחסד אשר יבואכם בהתגלות ישוע המשיח׃

14 כבני משמעת אל תתנהגו בתאות אשר התאויתם בעוד היותכם בבלי דעת׃

15 כי אם היו קדשים בכל דרכיכם כאשר קדוש הוא אשר קרא אתכם׃

16 כי על כן כתוב והייתם קדשים כי קדוש אני׃

17 ואם אב תקראו לאלהים השפט בבלי משא פנים כפי מעללי איש ואיש התהלכו נא ביראה בימי מגוריכם׃

18 מדעתכם כי לא בדבר נפסד בכסף או בזהב נפדיתם מדרך הבלכם אשר הנחלתם מאת אבותיכם׃

19 כי אם בדם יקר של שה תמים ומום אין בו בדם המשיח׃

20 הנודע מראש לפני מוסדות תבל ונגלה באחרית הימים למענכם׃

21 המאמינים על פיו באלהים אשר הקים אתו מעם המתים ויתן לו כבוד למען היות אמונתכם גם תקוה לאלהים׃

22 זכו את נפשתיכם על ידי הרוח בשמעכם בקול האמת לאהבת אחים בלא חנפה ואהבתם איש את רעהו אהבה חזקה בלב טהור׃

23 כנולדים מחדש לא מזרע נשחת כי אם מזרע לא ישחת במאמר אלהים החי והקים לעולם׃

24 כי כל בשר חציר וכל כבוד איש כציץ השדה יבש חציר נבל ציץ׃

25 ודבר יהוה יקום לעולם וזה הוא הדבר אשר בשר לכם

English:

"Greetings from Peter

This letter is from Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ.

I am writing to God’s chosen people who are living as foreigners in the provinces of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. God the Father knew you and chose you long ago, and his Spirit has made you holy. As a result, you have obeyed him and have been cleansed by the blood of Jesus Christ.

May God give you more and more grace and peace.

The Hope of Eternal Life

All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, and we have a priceless inheritance—an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay. And through your faith, God is protecting you by his power until you receive this salvation, which is ready to be revealed on the last day for all to see.

So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold—though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day when Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world.

You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy. The reward for trusting him will be the salvation of your souls.

This salvation was something even the prophets wanted to know more about when they prophesied about this gracious salvation prepared for you. They wondered what time or situation the Spirit of Christ within them was talking about when he told them in advance about Christ’s suffering and his great glory afterward.

They were told that their messages were not for themselves, but for you. And now this Good News has been announced to you by those who preached in the power of the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. It is all so wonderful that even the angels are eagerly watching these things happen.

A Call to Holy Living

So prepare your minds for action and exercise self-control. Put all your hope in the gracious salvation that will come to you when Jesus Christ is revealed to the world. So you must live as God’s obedient children. Don’t slip back into your old ways of living to satisfy your own desires. You didn’t know any better then. But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy. For the Scriptures say, “You must be holy because I am holy.”

And remember that the heavenly Father to whom you pray has no favorites. He will judge or reward you according to what you do. So you must live in reverent fear of him during your time here as “temporary residents.” For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And it was not paid with mere gold or silver, which lose their value. It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God. God chose him as your ransom long before the world began, but now in these last days he has been revealed for your sake.

Through Christ you have come to trust in God. And you have placed your faith and hope in God because he raised Christ from the dead and gave him great glory.

You were cleansed from your sins when you obeyed the truth, so now you must show sincere love to each other as brothers and sisters. Love each other deeply with all your heart.

For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God. As the Scriptures say,

“People are like grass;

their beauty is like a flower in the field.

The grass withers and the flower fades.

But the word of the Lord remains forever.”

And that word is the Good News that was preached to you."

Ephesians 6: Hebrews and English:

Hebrews:

הפרק 6

שמעו בנים אל הוריכם באדנינו כי ארח ישר הוא׃

2 כבד את אביך ואת אמך זאת היא המצוה הראשונה אשר לה ההבטחה׃

3 למען ייטב לך ולמען יאריכן ימיך על האדמה׃

4 ואתם האבות אל תכעיסו את בניכם אך גדלום במוסר אדנינו ובתוכחתו׃

5 שמעו עבדים אל אדניכם לפי הבשר ביראה ורתת ובתם לבבכם כמו למשיח׃

6 לא בעבדת מראה העין כמבקשי חן בני אדם כי אם כעבדי המשיח עשים רצון האלהים בכל נפשם׃

7 ועבדים בנפש חפצה את האדון ולא בני אדם׃

8 וידעתם כי כל דבר טוב אשר עשה האדם ישלמנו לו אדנינו אם עבד הוא או בן חורין׃

9 ואתם האדנים ככה תעשו גם להם חדלו מגער בם וידעתם כי גם עליכם יש אדון בשמים ואין לפניו משא פנים׃

10 סוף דבר אחי חזקו באדנינו ובעז גבורתו׃

11 לבשו כלי נשק אלהים למען תוכלו עמד נגד נכלי השטן׃

12 כי לא עם בשר ודם מלחמתנו כי עם שרים ושליטים עם המשלים בחשכת העולם הזה עם הרוחות הרעות אשר במרומים׃

13 על כן אחזו בכלי נשק אלהים למען תוכלו לקום ביום הרע ולמלא צבאכם ולעמוד׃

14 עמדו נא חגורי מתנים באמת ומלבשים בשריון הצדק׃

15 ורגליכם מנעלות להיותכם מוכנים לבשורת השלום׃

16 ועל כל אלה תפשו את מגן האמונה אשר תוכלו לכבות בו את חצי הרשע הבערים׃

17 וקחו את כובע הישועה וחרב הרוח שהיא דבר האלהים׃

18 והתפללו תמיד בכל עת בתפלה ותחנונים ברוח ושקדו והתאמצו על זאת להעתיר תמיד בעד כל הקדשים׃

19 וגם בעדי למען ינתן לי הדבר בפתחי פי להגיד בבטחון את סוד הבשורה אשר אנכי ציר לה במוסרות׃

20 למען אדבר בה בבטחה כאשר מטל עלי לדבר׃

21 ולמען אשר תדעו גם אתם את קרתי ואת מעשי הנה את הכל יודיע אתכם טוכיקוס האח החביב והמשרת הנאמן באדנינו׃

22 אשר לזאת שלחתיהו אליכם למען תדעו את קרתינו ולמען ינחם את לבבכם׃

23 השלום לאחים והאהבה עם האמונה מאת האלהים האב ומאת האדון ישוע המשיח׃

24 החסד עם כל האהבים את אדנינו ישוע המשיח באהבה אשר לא תכלה

English:

"Children and Parents

Children, obey your parents because you belong to the Lord, for this is the right thing to do.“Honor your father and mother.” This is the first commandment with a promise: If you honor your father and mother, “things will go well for you, and you will have a long life on the earth.”

Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord.

Slaves and Masters

Slaves, obey your earthly masters with deep respect and fear. Serve them sincerely as you would serve Christ. Try to please them all the time, not just when they are watching you. As slaves of Christ, do the will of God with all your heart. Work with enthusiasm, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will reward each one of us for the good we do, whether we are slaves or free.

Masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Don’t threaten them; remember, you both have the same Master in heaven, and he has no favorites.

The Whole Armor of God

A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.

Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared. In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.

And pray for me, too. Ask God to give me the right words so I can boldly explain God’s mysterious plan that the Good News is for Jews and Gentiles alike. I am in chains now, still preaching this message as God’s ambassador. So pray that I will keep on speaking boldly for him, as I should.

Final Greetings

To bring you up to date, Tychicus will give you a full report about what I am doing and how I am getting along. He is a beloved brother and faithful helper in the Lord’s work. I have sent him to you for this very purpose—to let you know how we are doing and to encourage you.

Peace be with you, dear brothers and sisters, and may God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you love with faithfulness. May God’s grace be eternally upon all who love our Lord Jesus Christ."

Ephesians 5: Hebrews and English:

Hebrews:

הפרק 5

לכן לכו בדרך האלהים כבנים חביבים׃

2 והתהלכו באהבה כאשר גם המשיח אהב אתנו והקריב את נפשו בעדנו לקרבן וזבח לאלהים לריח ניחוח׃

3 אבל זנות וכל טמאה ואהבת בצע בל יזכר ביניכם כאשר נאוה לקדשים׃

4 גם לא נבול פה ודברי סכלות ולעג אשר לא כהגן כי אם קול תודה׃

5 כי זאת ידע תדעו כי כל זנה וטמא ואהב בצע שהוא עבד אלילים אין לו חלק ונחלה במלכות המשיח והאלהים׃

6 אל ישיא איש אתכם בדברי ריק כי בגלל אלה חרון אלהים בא על בני המרי׃

7 על כן אל יהי חלקכם עמהם׃

8 כי מלפנים הייתם חשך ועתה הנכם אור באדנינו התהלכו נא כבני אור׃

9 כי פרי הרוח כל מעשי חסד וצדק ואמת׃

10 ובחנו מה הוא רצוי בעיני אדנינו׃

11 ואל תשתתפו עם מעשי החשך אשר לא יעשו פרי כי אם הוכח תוכיחו אותם׃

12 כי מה שהם עשים בסתר חרפה היא אך לספר׃

13 אבל כל זאת יגלה כשיוכח על ידי האור כי כל הנגלה אור הוא׃

14 על כן הוא אומר עורה הישן וקומה מן המתים ויאר לך המשיח׃

15 ועתה ראו והזהרו להתהלך לא ככסילים כי אם כחכמים׃

16 מוקירים העת כי הימים רעים המה׃

17 על כן אל תהיו חסרי דעת כי אם מבינים לדעת מה הוא רצון אדנינו׃

18 ואל תשתכרו מיין המביא לידי פריצות כי אם המלאו ברוח׃

19 ושיחו איש לרעהו בתהלות ותשבחות ושירות רוחניות שירו וזמרו לאדני בלבבכם׃

20 והודו בכל עת על הכל לאלהים אבינו בשם אדנינו ישוע המשיח׃

21 הכנעו איש לאחיו ביראת אלהים׃

22 הנשים הכנענה לבעליכן כמו לאדנינו׃

23 כי האיש הוא ראש האשה כאשר המשיח הוא ראש העדה והוא מושיע של הגוף׃

24 אבל כאשר תכנע העדה למשיח ככה גם הנשים לבעליהן בכל דבר׃

25 האנשים אהבו את נשיכם כאשר גם המשיח אהב את העדה ויתן את נפשו בעדה׃

26 למען קדשה בדברו אחרי אשר טהרה ברחיצת המים׃

27 להקימה בכבוד לו לעדה אשר אין בה כתם וקמט וכדומה כי אם למען תהיה קדושה ותמימה׃

28 כן האנשים חיבים לאהב את נשיהם כגופם כי האהב את אשתו אהב את עצמו׃

29 כי מעולם לא שנא איש את בשרו כי אם זן ומכלכל אתו כאשר גם האדון את עדתו׃

30 כי אברי גופו אנחנו משברו ומעצמיו׃

31 על כן יעזב איש את אביו ואת אמו ודבק באשתו והיו שניהם לבשר אחד׃

32 גדול הסוד הזה ואני מפרש אתו על המשיח ועל עדתו׃

33 ואולם גם אתם כל איש מכם יאהב את אשתו כנפשו והאשה היא תזהר ותירא את בעלה׃

English:

"Living in the Light

Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children. Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.

Let there be no sexual immorality, impurity, or greed among you. Such sins have no place among God’s people. Obscene stories, foolish talk, and coarse jokes—these are not for you. Instead, let there be thankfulness to God. You can be sure that no immoral, impure, or greedy person will inherit the Kingdom of Christ and of God. For a greedy person is an idolater, worshiping the things of this world.

Don’t be fooled by those who try to excuse these sins, for the anger of God will fall on all who disobey him. Don’t participate in the things these people do. For once you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light! For this light within you produces only what is good and right and true.

Carefully determine what pleases the Lord. Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and darkness; instead, expose them. It is shameful even to talk about the things that ungodly people do in secret. But their evil intentions will be exposed when the light shines on them, for the light makes everything visible. This is why it is said,

“Awake, O sleeper,

rise up from the dead,

and Christ will give you light.”

Living by the Spirit’s Power

So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days. Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what the Lord wants you to do. Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. Instead, be filled with the Holy Spirit, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs among yourselves, and making music to the Lord in your hearts. And give thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Spirit-Guided Relationships: Wives and Husbands

And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.

For wives, this means submit to your husbands as to the Lord. For a husband is the head of his wife as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of his body, the church. As the church submits to Christ, so you wives should submit to your husbands in everything.

For husbands, this means love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word. He did this to present her to himself as a glorious church without a spot or wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault. In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies. For a man who loves his wife actually shows love for himself. No one hates his own body but feeds and cares for it, just as Christ cares for the church. And we are members of his body.

As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.” This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one. So again I say, each man must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband."
