PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Децо! Слушајте своје родитеље у Господу: јер је ово право.
1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
1 Τὰ τέκνα ὑπακούετε τοῖς γονεῦσιν ὑμῶν ἐν Κυρίῳ· τοῦτο γάρ ἐστι δίκαιον.
2 Поштуј оца свог и матер: ово је прва заповест с обећањем:
2 “Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with a promise:
2 τίμα τὸν πατέρα σου καὶ τὴν μητέρα, ἥτις ἐστὶν ἐντολὴ πρώτη ἐν ἐπαγγελίᾳ,
3 Да ти благо буде, и да живиш дуго на земљи.
3 “that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth.”
3 ἵνα εὖ σοι γένηται καὶ ἔσῃ μακροχρόνιος ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
4 И ви очеви! Не раздражујте децу своју, него их гајите у науци и у страху Господњем.
4 You fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
4 καὶ οἱ πατέρες μὴ παροργίζετε τὰ τέκνα ὑμῶν, ἀλλ᾽ ἐκτρέφετε αὐτὰ ἐν παιδείᾳ καὶ νουθεσίᾳ Κυρίου.
5 Слуге! Слушајте господаре своје по телу, са страхом и дрхтањем, у простоти срца свог, као и Христа;
5 Servants, be obedient to those who according to the flesh are your masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Christ,
5 Οἱ δοῦλοι ὑπακούετε τοῖς κυρίοις κατὰ σάρκα μετὰ φόβου καὶ τρόμου ἐν ἁπλότητι τῆς καρδίας ὑμῶν ὡς τῷ Χριστῷ,
6 не само пред очима радећи као људима да угађате, него као слуге Христове, творећи вољу Божију од срца.
6 not in the way of service only when eyes are on you, as men pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,
6 μὴ κατ᾽ ὀφθαλμοδουλίαν ὡς ἀνθρωπάρεσκοι, ἀλλ᾽ ὡς δοῦλοι [τοῦ] Χριστοῦ, ποιοῦντες τὸ θέλημα τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐκ ψυχῆς,
7 Драговољно служите, као Господу а не као људима,
7 with good will doing service as to the Lord and not to men,
7 μετ᾽ εὐνοίας δουλεύοντες [ὡς] τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ οὐκ ἀνθρώποις,
8 знајући да сваки што учини добро оно ће и примити од Господа, био роб или слободњак.
8 knowing that whatever good thing each one does, he will receive the same good again from the Lord, whether he is bound or free.
8 εἰδότες ὅτι ὃ ἐάν τι ἕκαστος ποιήσῃ ἀγαθόν, τοῦτο κομιεῖται παρὰ τοῦ Κυρίου, εἴτε δοῦλος εἴτε ἐλεύθερος.
9 И ви господари, тако чините њима остављајући претње, знајући да је и вама самим и њима Господар на небесима, и Он не гледа ко је ко.
9 You masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no partiality with him.
9 Καὶ οἱ κύριοι τὰ αὐτὰ ποιεῖτε πρὸς αὐτούς, ἀνιέντες τὴν ἀπειλήν, εἰδότες ὅτι καὶ ὑμῶν αὐτῶν ὁ Κύριός ἐστιν ἐν οὐρανοῖς, καὶ προσωποληψία οὐκ ἔστι παρ᾽ αὐτῷ.
10 А даље, браћо моја, јачајте у Господу и у сили јачине Његове.
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.
10 Τὸ λοιπόν, ἀδελφοί μου, ἐνδυναμοῦσθε ἐν Κυρίῳ καὶ ἐν τῷ κράτει τῆς ἰσχύος αὐτοῦ.
11 Обуците се у све оружје Божије, да бисте се могли одржати против лукавства ђаволског:
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
11 ἐνδύσασθε τὴν πανοπλίαν τοῦ Θεοῦ πρὸς τὸ δύνασθαι ὑμᾶς στῆναι πρὸς τὰς μεθοδείας τοῦ διαβόλου·
12 Јер наш рат није с крвљу и с телом, него с поглаварима и властима, и с управитељима таме овог света, с духовима пакости испод неба.
12 For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
12 ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἡμῖν ἡ πάλη πρὸς αἷμα καὶ σάρκα, ἀλλὰ πρὸς τὰς ἀρχάς, πρὸς τὰς ἐξουσίας, πρὸς τοὺς κοσμοκράτορας τοῦ σκότους τοῦ αἰῶνος τούτου, πρὸς τὰ πνευματικὰ τῆς πονηρίας ἐν τοῖς ἐπουρανίοις.
13 Тога ради узмите све оружје Божије, да бисте се могли бранити у зли дан, и свршивши све одржати се.
13 Therefore put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
13 διὰ τοῦτο ἀναλάβετε τὴν πανοπλίαν τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἵνα δυνηθῆτε ἀντιστῆναι ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ πονηρᾷ καὶ ἅπαντα κατεργασάμενοι στῆναι.
14 Станите дакле опасавши бедра своја истином и обукавши се у оклоп правде,
14 Stand therefore, having the utility belt of truth buckled around your waist, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,
14 στῆτε οὖν περιζωσάμενοι τὴν ὀσφὺν ὑμῶν ἐν ἀληθείᾳ, καὶ ἐνδυσάμενοι τὸν θώρακα τῆς δικαιοσύνης,
15 и обувши ноге у приправу јеванђеља мира;
15 and having fitted your feet with the preparation of the Good News of peace,
15 καὶ ὑποδησάμενοι τοὺς πόδας ἐν ἑτοιμασίᾳ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου τῆς εἰρήνης,
16 а сврх свега узмите штит вере о који ћете моћи погасити све распаљене стреле нечастивог;
16 above all, taking up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one.
16 ἐπὶ πᾶσιν ἀναλαβόντες τὸν θυρεὸν τῆς πίστεως, ἐν ᾧ δυνήσεσθε πάντα τὰ βέλη τοῦ πονηροῦ τὰ πεπυρωμένα σβέσαι·
17 и кацигу спасења узмите, и мач духовни који је реч Божија.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;
17 καὶ τὴν περικεφαλαίαν τοῦ σωτηρίου δέξασθε, καὶ τὴν μάχαιραν τοῦ Πνεύματος, ὅ ἐστι ῥῆμα Θεοῦ, —
18 И сваком молитвом и мољењем молите се Богу духом без престанка, и уз то стражите са сваким трпљењем и молитвом за све свете,
18 with all prayer and requests, praying at all times in the Spirit, and being watchful to this end in all perseverance and requests for all the saints.
18 διὰ πάσης προσευχῆς καὶ δεήσεως, προσευχόμενοι ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ ἐν Πνεύματι, καὶ εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦτο ἀγρυπνοῦντες ἐν πάσῃ προσκαρτερήσει καὶ δεήσει περὶ πάντων τῶν ἁγίων,
19 и за мене, да ми се да реч кад отворим уста своја, да обзнаним са слободом тајну јеванђеља,
19 Pray for me, that utterance may be given to me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the Good News,
19 καὶ ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ, ἵνα μοι δοθῇ λόγος ἐν ἀνοίξει τοῦ στόματός μου, ἐν παρρησίᾳ γνωρίσαι τὸ μυστήριον τοῦ εὐαγγελίου,
20 за које сам посланик у оковима, да у Њему говорим слободно, као што ми се пристоји.
20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
20 ὑπὲρ οὗ πρεσβεύω ἐν ἁλύσει, ἵνα ἐν αὐτῷ παρρησιάσωμαι ὡς δεῖ με λαλῆσαι.
21 А да и ви знате како сам ја и шта радим, све ће вам казати Тихик, љубазни брат и верни слуга у Господу,
21 But that you also may know my affairs, how I am doing, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful servant in the Lord, will make known to you all things.
21 Ἵνα δὲ εἰδῆτε καὶ ὑμεῖς τὰ κατ᾽ ἐμέ, τί πράσσω, πάντα ὑμῖν γνωρίσει Τυχικὸς ὁ ἀγαπητὸς ἀδελφὸς καὶ πιστὸς διάκονος ἐν Κυρίῳ,
22 ког послах к вама за то исто да знате како смо ми, и да утеши срца ваша.
22 I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know our state and that he may comfort your hearts.
22 ὃν ἔπεμψα πρὸς ὑμᾶς εἰς αὐτὸ τοῦτο, ἵνα γνῶτε τὰ περὶ ἡμῶν καὶ παρακαλέσῃ τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν.
23 Мир браћи и љубав с вером од Бога Оца и Господа Исуса Христа.
23 Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
23 Εἰρήνη τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς καὶ ἀγάπη μετὰ πίστεως ἀπὸ Θεοῦ πατρὸς καὶ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.
24 Благодат са свима који љубе Господа нашег Исуса Христа једнако. Амин.
24 Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ with incorruptible love. Amen.
24 Ἡ χάρις μετὰ πάντων τῶν ἀγαπώντων τὸν Κύριον ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν ἐν ἀφθαρσίᾳ· ἀμήν.

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).
As a man in forming a body, places the head first, after that the neck, then the feet, so does the blessed Paul proceed in his discourse. He has spoken of the husband, he has spoken of the wife, who is second in authority, he now goes on by gradual advances to the third rank--which is that of children.

For we hear also of the shield of faith, "wherewith," says the apostle, "ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked." Nor ought we, on the other hand, in regard to spiritual armor of this kind to assign faith to the shield only; for we read in another place of the breastplate of faith: "putting …

Yes, for a grievous conflict is at hand, and against the powers unseen is our wrestling; against "the spiritual wickednesses" our fight, "against principalities, against powers" our warfare: and it is well for us, if when we are earnest and sober and thoroughly awakened, we can be able to sustain that savage phalanx.

… watch not; but, since the enemy is unseen, we have faith as our strong armour, according to the saying of the Apostle, In all things taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.

… true, says, "In all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us." But in a phrase of this kind there is no suggestion of any lowly and subordinate ministry, but rather of the succour rendered "in the power of his might." For He Himself has bound the strong man and spoiled his goods, that is, us …
