RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

WEB World English Bible (clásica, con deuterocanónicos)

1 Let it then be your desire to be like God, as well-loved children;

1 SED, pues, imitadores de Dios como hijos amados:

1 Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children.

2 And be living in love, even as Christ had love for you, and gave himself up for us, an offering to God for a perfume of a sweet smell.

2 Y andad en amor, como también Cristo nos amó, y se entregó á sí mismo por nosotros, ofrenda y sacrificio á Dios en olor suave.

2 Walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.

3 But evil acts of the flesh and all unclean things, or desire for others' property, let it not even be named among you, as is right for saints;

3 Pero fornicación y toda inmundicia, ó avaricia, ni aun se nombre entre vosotros, como conviene á santos;

3 But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints;

4 And let there be no low behaviour, or foolish talk, or words said in sport, which are not right, but in place of them the giving of praise.

4 Ni palabras torpes, ni necedades, ni truhanerías, que no convienen; sino antes bien acciones de gracias.

4 nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not appropriate, but rather giving of thanks.

5 Being certain of this, that no man who gives way to the passions of the flesh, no unclean person, or one who has desire for the property of others, or who gives worship to images, has any heritage in the kingdom of Christ and God.

5 Porque sabéis esto, que ningún fornicario, ó inmundo, ó avaro, que es servidor de ídolos, tiene herencia en el reino de Cristo y de Dios.

5 Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral person, nor unclean person, nor covetous man (who is an idolater), has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God.

6 Do not be turned from the right way by foolish words; for because of these things the punishment of God comes on those who do not put themselves under him.

6 Nadie os engañe con palabras vanas; porque por estas cosas viene la ira de Dios sobre los hijos de desobediencia.

6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience.

7 Have no part with such men;

7 No seáis pues aparceros con ellos;

7 Therefore don’t be partakers with them.

8 For you at one time were dark, but now are light in the Lord: let your behaviour be that of children of light

8 Porque en otro tiempo erais tinieblas; mas ahora sois luz en el Señor: andad como hijos de luz,

8 For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,

9 (Because the fruit of the light is in all righteousness and in everything which is good and true),

9 (Porque el fruto del Espíritu es en toda bondad, y justicia, y verdad;)

9 for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,

10 Testing by experience what is well-pleasing to the Lord;

10 Aprobando lo que es agradable al Señor.

10 proving what is well pleasing to the Lord.

11 And have no company with the works of the dark, which give no fruit, but make their true quality clear;

11 Y no comuniquéis con las obras infructuosas de las tinieblas; sino antes bien redargüidlas.

11 Have no fellowship with the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even reprove them.

12 For the things which are done by them in secret it is shame even to put into words.

12 Porque torpe cosa es aun hablar de lo que ellos hacen en oculto.

12 For it is a shame even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.

13 But all things, when their true quality is seen, are made clear by the light: because everything which is made clear is light.

13 Mas todas las cosas cuando son redargüidas, son manifestadas por la luz; porque lo que manifiesta todo, la luz es.

13 But all things, when they are reproved, are revealed by the light, for everything that reveals is light.

14 For this reason he says, Be awake, you who are sleeping, and come up from among the dead, and Christ will be your light.

14 Por lo cual dice: Despiértate, tú que duermes, y levántate de los muertos, y te alumbrará Cristo.

14 Therefore he says, “Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”

15 Take care then how you are living, not as unwise, but as wise;

15 Mirad, pues, cómo andéis avisadamente; no como necios, mas como sabios;

15 Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise,

16 Making good use of the time, because the days are evil.

16 Redimiendo el tiempo, porque los días son malos.

16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

17 For this reason, then, do not be foolish, but be conscious of the Lord's pleasure.

17 Por tanto, no seáis imprudentes, sino entendidos de cuál sea la voluntad del Señor.

17 Therefore, don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

18 And do not take overmuch wine by which one may be overcome, but be full of the Spirit;

18 Y no os embriaguéis de vino, en lo cual hay disolución; mas sed llenos de Espíritu;

18 Don’t be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,

19 Joining with one another in holy songs of praise and of the Spirit, using your voice in songs and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

19 Hablando entre vosotros con salmos, y con himnos, y canciones espirituales, cantando y alabando al Señor en vuestros corazones;

19 speaking to one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs; singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

20 Giving praise at all times for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God, even the Father;

20 Dando gracias siempre de todo al Dios y Padre en el nombre de nuestro Señor Jesucristo:

20 giving thanks always concerning all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;

21 Letting yourselves be ruled by one another in the fear of Christ.

21 Sujetados los unos á los otros en el temor de Dios.

21 subjecting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ.

22 Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as of the Lord.

22 Las casadas estén sujetas á sus propios maridos, como al Señor.

22 Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church, being himself the saviour of the body.

23 Porque el marido es cabeza de la mujer, así como Cristo es cabeza de la iglesia; y él es el que da la salud al cuerpo.

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body.

24 And as the church is under Christ's authority, so let wives be under the rule of their husbands in all things.

24 Así que, como la iglesia está sujeta á Cristo, así también las casadas [lo estén] á sus maridos en todo.

24 But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything.

25 Husbands, have love for your wives, even as Christ had love for the church, and gave himself for it;

25 Maridos, amad á vuestras mujeres, así como Cristo amó á la iglesia, y se entregó á sí mismo por ella,

25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for her,

26 So that he might make it holy, having made it clean with the washing of water by the word,

26 Para santificarla limpiándola en el lavacro del agua por la palabra,

26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,

27 And might take it for himself, a church full of glory, not having one mark or fold or any such thing; but that it might be holy and complete.

27 Para presentársela gloriosa para sí, una iglesia que no tuviese mancha ni arruga, ni cosa semejante; sino que fuese santa y sin mancha.

27 that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without defect.

28 Even so it is right for husbands to have love for their wives as for their bodies. He who has love for his wife has love for himself:

28 Así también los maridos deben amar á sus mujeres como á sus mismos cuerpos. El que ama á su mujer, á sí mismo se ama.

28 Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.

29 For no man ever had hate for his flesh; but he gives it food and takes care of it, even as Christ does for the church;

29 Porque ninguno aborreció jamás á su propia carne, antes la sustenta y regala, como también Cristo á la iglesia;

29 For no man ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly,

30 Because we are parts of his body.

30 Porque somos miembros de su cuerpo, de su carne y de sus huesos.

30 because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones.

31 For this cause will a man go away from his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.

31 Por esto dejará el hombre á su padre y á su madre, y se allegará á su mujer, y serán dos en una carne.

31 “For this cause a man will leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife. Then the two will become one flesh.”

32 This is a great secret: but my words are about Christ and the church.

32 Este misterio grande es: mas yo digo [esto] con respecto á Cristo y á la iglesia.

32 This mystery is great, but I speak concerning Christ and the assembly.

33 But do you, everyone, have love for his wife, even as for himself; and let the wife see that she has respect for her husband.

33 Cada uno empero de vosotros de por sí, ame también á su mujer como á sí mismo; y la mujer reverencie á su marido.

33 Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

Comentario 5:5 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Ephesians (Homily XVIII)
There were, it is likely, in the time of our forefathers also, some who "weakened the hands of the people" (Jer. xxxviii. 4.), and brought into practice that which is mentioned by Ezekiel,--or rather who did the works of the false prophets, who "profaned God among His people for handfuls of barley" (Ezek. xiii.

Nor had I aught to answer Thee calling to me, "Awake, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light."

Cita 5:4 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily VI)
… this cause he also built theatres in the cities, and having trained those buffoons, by their pernicious influence he causes that kind of pestilence to light upon the whole city, persuading men to follow those things which Paul bade us flee, "foolish talking and jesting." And what is yet more grievous than these things is the subject of the laughter.
