1 Molim vas dakle ja sužanj u Gospodu, da se vladate kao što prilikuje vašem zvanju u koje ste pozvani,
1 I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to walk worthily of the calling with which you were called,
2 sa svakom poniznošću i krotošću, s trpljenjem, trpeći jedan drugog u ljubavi,
2 with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one another in love,
3 starajući se držati jedinstvo Duha u svezi mira;
3 being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
4 jedno telo, jedan duh, kao što ste i pozvani u jednoj nadi zvanja svog.
4 There is one body and one Spirit, even as you also were called in one hope of your calling,
5 Jedan Gospod, jedna vera, jedno krštenje,
5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 jedan Bog i Otac svih, koji je nad svima, i kroza sve, i u svima nama.
6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in us all.
7 A svakome se od nas dade blagodat po meri dara Hristovog.
7 But to each one of us, the grace was given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
8 Zato govori: Izišavši na visinu zaplenio si plen, i dade dare ljudima.
8 Therefore he says, “When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to people.”
9 A šta iziđe, šta je, osim da i siđe u najdonja mesta zemlje?
9 Now this, “He ascended”, what is it but that he also first descended into the lower parts of the earth?
10 Koji siđe to je Onaj koji i iziđe više svih nebesa da ispuni sve.
10 He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.
11 I On je dao jedne apostole, a jedne proroke, a jedne jevanđeliste, a jedne pastire i učitelje,
11 He gave some to be apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, shepherds and teachers;
12 da se sveti priprave za delo službe, na sazidanje tela Hristovog;
12 for the perfecting of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Christ,
13 dokle dostignemo svi u jedinstvo vere i poznanje Sina Božijeg, u čoveka savršenog, u meru rasta visine Hristove;
13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full grown man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,
14 da ne budemo više mala deca, koju ljulja i zanosi svaki vetar nauke, u laži čovečijoj, putem prevare;
14 that we may no longer be children, tossed back and forth and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error;
15 nego vladajući se po istini u ljubavi da u svemu uzrastemo u Onome koji je glava, Hristos.
15 but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him who is the head, Christ,
16 Iz kog je sve telo sastavljeno i sklopljeno svakim zglavkom, da jedno drugom pomaže dobro po meri svakog uda, i čini da raste telo na popravljanje samog sebe u ljubavi.
16 from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through that which every joint supplies, according to the working in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in love.
17 Ovo dakle govorim i svedočim u Gospodu da više ne hodite kao što hode i ostali neznabošci u praznosti uma svog,
17 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind,
18 koji imaju smisao tamom pokriven, i udaljeni su od života Božijeg za neznanje koje je u njima, za okamenjenje srca svojih;
18 being darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their hearts.
19 koji ostavivši poštenje predadoše se besramnosti, na činjenje svake nečistote i lakomstva.
19 They, having become callous, gave themselves up to lust, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
20 Ali vi tako ne poznaste Hrista;
20 But you didn’t learn Christ that way,
21 jer Ga čuste i u Njemu se naučiste, kao što je istina u Isusu,
21 if indeed you heard him and were taught in him, even as truth is in Jesus:
22 da odbacite, po prvom življenju, starog čoveka, koji se raspada u željama prevarljivim;
22 that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit,
23 i da se obnovite duhom uma svog,
23 and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind,
24 i obučete u novog čoveka, koji je sazdan po Bogu u pravdi i u svetinji istine.
24 and put on the new man, who in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of truth.
25 Zato odbacite laž, i govorite istinu svaki sa svojim bližnjim; jer smo udi jedan drugom.
25 Therefore, putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor, for we are members of one another.
26 Gnevite se i ne grešite; sunce da ne zađe u gnevu vašem.
26 “Be angry, and don’t sin.” Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath,
27 Niti dajte mesta đavolu.
27 and don’t give place to the devil.
28 Koji je krao više da ne krade, nego još da se trudi, čineći dobro rukama svojim da ima šta davati potrebnome.
28 Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, producing with his hands something that is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need.
29 Nikakva rđava reč da ne izlazi iz usta vaših, nego samo šta je dobro za napredovanje vere, da da blagodat onima koji slušaju.
29 Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but only what is good for building others up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear.
30 I ne ožalošćavajte Svetog Duha Božijeg, kojim ste zapečaćeni za dan izbavljenja.
30 Don’t grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
31 Svaka gorčina, i gnev, i ljutina, i vika, i hula, da se uzme od vas, sa svakom pakošću.
31 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice.
32 A budite jedan drugom blagi, milostivi, praštajući jedan drugom, kao što je i Bog u Hristu oprostio vama.
32 And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
When the blessed Paul exhorts us to anything of special importance, so truly wise and spiritual as he is, he grounds his exhortation upon things in Heaven: this itself being a lesson he had learned from the Lord. Thus he saith also elsewhere, "Walk in love, even as Christ also hath loved us." (ch. v.

It is declared then in these Scriptures, "Be ye angry, and sin not," and, "Let not the sun go down upon your wrath." Happy is he who remembers this, which I believe to be the case with you.
Now, that this God is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Paul the apostle also has declared, [saying,] "There is one God, the Father, who is above all, and through all things, and in us all." I have indeed proved already that there is only one God; but I shall further demonstrate this from the apostles themselves, and from …
But that orator was of the kind that I so loved as I wished myself to be such a one; and I erred through an inflated pride, and was "carried about with every wind," but yet was piloted by Thee, though very secretly.

For this cause Paul also, when urging us in another way to reconciliation, said, "Let not the sun go down upon your wrath." For much as Christ by this argument of the sacrifice, so there Paul by that of the day, is urging us on to the self-same point.
