1 שִׁמְעוּ בָּנִים אֶל־הוֹרֵיכֶם בַּאֲדֹנֵינוּ כִּי־אֹרַח ישֶׁר הוּא1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is just.
2 כַּבֵּד אֶת־אָבִיךָ וְאֶת־אִמֶּךָ זֹאת הִיא הַמִּצְוָה הָרִאשׁוֹנָה אֲשֶׁר־לָהּ הַהַבְטָחָה2 Honour thy father and thy mother, which is the first commandment with a promise:
3 לְמַעַן יִיטַב לָךְ וּלְמַעַן יַאֲרִיכֻן יָמֶיךָ עַל־הָאֲדָמָה3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest be long lived upon earth.
4 וְאַתֶּם הָאָבוֹת אַל־תַּכְעִיסוּ אֶת־בְּנֵיכֶם אַךְ גַּדְּלוּם בְּמוּסַר אֲדֹנֵינוּ וּבְתוֹכַחְתּוֹ4 And you, fathers, provoke not your children to anger; but bring them up in the discipline and correction of the Lord.
5 שִׁמְעוּ עֲבָדִים אֶל־אֲדֹנֵיכֶם לְפִי הַבָּשָׂר בְּיִרְאָה וָרֶתֶת וּבְתָם־לְבַבְכֶם כְּמוֹ לַמָּשִׁיחַ5 Servants, be obedient to them that are your lords according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in the simplicity of your heart, as to Christ:
6 לֹא בַעֲבֹדַת מַרְאֵה הָעַיִן כִּמְבַקְשֵׁי חֵן בְּנֵי אָדָם כִּי אִם־כְּעַבְדֵי הַמָּשִׁיחַ עֹשִׂים רְצוֹן הָאֱלֹהִים בְּכָל־נַפְשָׁם6 Not serving to the eye, as it were pleasing men, but, as the servants of Christ doing the will of God from the heart,
7 וְעֹבְדִים בְּנֶפֶשׁ חֲפֵצָה אֶת־הָאָדוֹן וְלֹא בְּנֵי אָדָם7 With a good will serving, as to the Lord, and not to men.
8 וִידַעְתֶּם כִּי כָל־דָּבָר טוֹב אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה הָאָדָם יְשַׁלְּמֶנּוּ לוֹ אֲדֹנֵינוּ אִם־עֶבֶד הוּא אוֹ בֶן־חוֹרִין8 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man shall do, the same shall he receive from the Lord, whether he be bond, or free.
9 וְאַתֶּם הָאֲדֹנִים כָּכָה תַעֲשֹוּ גַּם־לָהֶם חִדְלוּ מִגְּעָר־בָּם וִידַעְתֶּם כִּי גַם־עֲלֵיכֶם יֵשׁ אָדוֹן בַּשָּׁמַיִם וְאֵין לְפָנָיו מַשּׂא פָנִים9 And you, masters, do the same things to them, forbearing threatenings, knowing that the Lord both of them and you is in heaven; and there is no respect of persons with him.
10 סוֹף דָּבָר אֶחָי חִזְקוּ בַאֲדֹנֵינוּ וּבְעֹז גְּבוּרָתוֹ10 Finally, brethren, be strengthened in the Lord, and in the might of his power.
11 לִבְשׁוּ כְּלֵי־נֶשֶׁק אֱלֹהִים לְמַעַן תּוּכְלוּ עֲמֹד נֶגֶד נִכְלֵי הַשָּׂטָן11 Put you on the armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the deceits of the devil.
12 כִּי לֹא עִם־בָּשָׂר וָדָם מִלְחַמְתֵּנוּ כִּי עִם־שָׂרִים וְשַׁלִּיטִים עִם־הַמּשְׁלִים בְּחֶשְׁכַּת הָעוֹלָם הַזֶּה עִם־הָרוּחוֹת הָרָעוֹת אֲשֶׁר בַּמְּרוֹמִים12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and power, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places.
13 עַל־כֵּן אֶחֱזוּ בִּכְלֵי־נֶשֶׁק אֱלֹהִים לְמַעַן תּוּכְלוּ לָקוּם בַּיּוֹם הָרָע וּלְמַלֵּא צְבָאֲכֶם וְלַעֲמוֹד13 Therefore take unto you the armour of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and to stand in all things perfect.
14 עִמְדוּ־נָא חֲגוּרֵי מָתְנַיִם בָּאֱמֶת וּמְלֻבָּשִׁים בְּשִׁרְיוֹן הַצֶּדֶק14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of justice,
15 וְרַגְלֵיכֶם מֻנְעָלוֹת לִהְיוֹתְכֶם מוּכָנִים לִבְשׂוֹרַת הַשָּׁלוֹם15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace:
16 וְעַל־כָּל־אֵלֶּה תִּפְשֹוּ אֶת־מָגֵן הָאֱמוּנָה אֲשֶׁר תּוּכְלוּ לְכַבּוֹת בּוֹ אֶת־חִצֵּי הָרָשָׁע הַבֹּעֲרִים16 In all things taking the shield of faith, wherewith you may be able to extinguish all the fiery darts of the most wicked one.
17 וּקְחוּ אֶת־כּוֹבַע הַיְשׁוּעָה וְחֶרֶב הָרוּחַ שֶׁהִיא דְּבַר הָאֱלֹהִים17 And take unto you the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit (which is the word of God).
18 וְהִתְפַּלְלוּ תָמִיד בְּכָל־עֵת בִּתְפִלָּה וְתַחֲנוּנִים בָּרוּחַ וְשִׁקְדוּ וְהִתְאַמְּצוּ עַל־זֹאת לְהַעְתִּיר תָּמִיד בְּעַד כָּל־הַקְּדשִׁים18 By all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the spirit; and in the same watching with all instance and supplication for all the saints:
19 וְגַם־בַּעֲדִי לְמַעַן יִנָּתֶן־לִי הַדָּבָר בְּפִתְחִי פִי לְהַגִּיד בְּבִטָּחוֹן אֶת־סוֹד הַבְּשׂוֹרָה אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי צִיר לָהּ בְּמוֹסֵרוֹת19 And for me, that speech may be given me, that I may open my mouth with confidence, to make known the mystery of the gospel.
20 לְמַעַן אֲדַבֵּר בָּהּ בְּבִטְחָה כַּאֲשֶׁר מֻטָּל עָלַי לְדַבֵּר20 For which I am an ambassador in a chain, so that therein I may be bold to speak according as I ought.
21 וּלְמַעַן אֲשֶׁר תֵּדְעוּ גַם־אַתֶּם אֶת־קֹרֹתַי וְאֶת־מַעֲשָׂי הִנֵּה אֶת־הַכֹּל יוֹדִיעַ אֶתְכֶם טוּכִיקוֹס הָאָח הֶחָבִיב וְהַמְשָׁרֵת הַנֶּאֱמָן בַּאֲדֹנֵינוּ21 But that you also may know the things that concern me, and what I am doing, Tychicus, my dearest brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make known to you all things:
22 אֲשֶׁר לָזֹאת שְׁלַחְתִּיהוּ אֲלֵיכֶם לְמַעַן תֵּדְעוּ אֶת־קֹרֹתֵינוּ וּלְמַעַן יְנַחֵם אֶת־לְבַבְכֶם22 Whom I have sent to you for this same purpose, that you may know the things concerning us, and that he may comfort your hearts.
23 הַשָּׁלוֹם לָאַחִים וְהָאַהֲבָה עִם־הָאֱמוּנָה מֵאֵת הָאֱלֹהִים הָאָב וּמֵאֵת הָאָדוֹן יֵשׁוּעַ הַמָּשִׁיחַ23 Peace be to the brethren and charity with faith, from God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
24 הַחֶסֶד עִם־כָּל־הָאֹהֲבִים אֶת־אֲדֹנֵינוּ יֵשׁוּעַ הַמָּשִׁיחַ בְּאַהֲבָה אֲשֶׁר לֹא־תִכְלֶה אָמֵן24 Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in incorruption. Amen.
