新共同 エペ
5:21-33
5:21 キリストに対する畏れをもって、互いに仕え合いなさい。
5:22 妻たちよ、主に仕えるように、自分の夫に仕えなさい。
5:23 キリストが教会の頭であり、自らその体の救い主であるように、夫は妻の頭だからです。
5:24 また、教会がキリストに仕えるように、妻もすべての面で夫に仕えるべきです。
5:25 夫たちよ、キリストが教会を愛し、教会のために御自分をお与えになったように、妻を愛しなさい。
5:26 キリストがそうなさったのは、言葉を伴う水の洗いによって、教会を清めて聖なるものとし、
5:27 しみやしわやそのたぐいのものは何一つない、聖なる、汚れのない、栄光に輝く教会を御自分の前に立たせるためでした。
5:28 そのように夫も、自分の体のように妻を愛さなくてはなりません。妻を愛する人は、自分自身を愛しているのです。
5:29 わが身を憎んだ者は一人もおらず、かえって、キリストが教会になさったように、わが身を養い、いたわるものです。
5:30 わたしたちは、キリストの体の一部なのです。
5:31 「それゆえ、人は父と母を離れてその妻と結ばれ、二人は一体となる。」
5:32 この神秘は偉大です。わたしは、キリストと教会について述べているのです。
5:33 いずれにせよ、あなたがたも、それぞれ、妻を自分のように愛しなさい。妻は夫を敬いなさい。
TEV エペ
5:21-33
5:21
Submit yourselves to one another because of your reverence for Christ.
5:22
Wives, submit yourselves to your husbands as to the Lord.
5:23 For
a husband has authority over his wife just as Christ has authority over the
church; and Christ is himself the Savior of the church, his body.
5:24 And
so wives must submit themselves completely to their husbands just as the church
submits itself to Christ.
5:25
Husbands, love your wives just as Christ loved the church and gave his life for
it.
5:26 He
did this to dedicate the church to God by his word, after making it clean by
washing it in water,
5:27 in
order to present the church to himself in all its beauty-pure and faultless,
without spot or wrinkle or any other imperfection.
5:28 Men
ought to love their wives just as they love their own bodies. A man who loves
his wife loves himself.
5:29
(None of us ever hate our own bodies. Instead, we feed them, and take care of
them, just as Christ does the church;
5:30 for
we are members of his body.)
5:31 As
the scripture says, "For this reason a man will leave his father and
mother and unite with his wife, and the two will become one."
5:32
There is a deep secret truth revealed in this scripture, which I understand as
applying to Christ and the church.
5:33 But
it also applies to you: every husband must love his wife as himself, and every
wife must respect her husband.
