King James Bible 2016
New Testament
| 5:1 | You therefore be followers of God as dear children. |
| 5:2 | And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling aroma. |
| 5:3 | But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints; |
| 5:4 | neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. |
| 5:5 | Because, you know this; that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. |
| 5:6 | Let no one deceive you with vain words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the children of disobedience. |
| 5:7 | Therefore do not be partakers with them. |
| 5:8 | Because, you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light |
| 5:9 | (because, the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), |
| 5:10 | finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. |
| 5:11 | And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. |
| 5:12 | Because, it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. |
| 5:13 | But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, because whatever makes manifest is light. |
| 5:14 | Therefore He says: "Awake, you who sleep, arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light." |
| 5:15 | See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, |
| 5:16 | redeeming the time, because the days are evil. |
| 5:17 | Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is. |
| 5:18 | And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, |
| 5:19 | speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, |
| 5:20 | giving thanks always for all things to God, even the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, |
| 5:21 | submitting yourselves to one another in the reverence of God. |
| 5:22 | Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands, as to the Lord. |
| 5:23 | Because, the husband is the head of the wife, just as Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. |
| 5:24 | Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. |
| 5:25 | Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, |
| 5:26 | that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, |
| 5:27 | that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. |
| 5:28 | So husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. |
| 5:29 | Because, no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. |
| 5:30 | Because, we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones. |
| 5:31 | "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and will be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh." |
| 5:32 | This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church. |
| 5:33 | Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife just as himself, and let the wife see that she reverence her husband. |
King James Bible 2016
Unlike most other modern versions, this Bible's text is based upon the same Hebrew Masoretic Text, and Greek Textus Receptus, of the King James Version of 1611.
In non Textus Receptus versions, the issue of having the best underlying manuscripts, is often overshadowed by the massive amount of omissions in the text. Because the KJV 2016 is not dealing with issues of omission and addition, the focus has been upon definition, and the KJV translators choices have been used as the benchmark.
One issue not often majored upon in the bible version debate is simply the way Greek words are defined. Many times, the NKJV leans upon the definition choices of modern versions as well as defaulting to Vines and Strong's definitions, which are almost always favorable to the Revised Version. In other words, one may have a correct text to translate from, but use erroneous modern version/modern dictionary definitions which change or distort the meaning of the words. Jay Green was accused of having a good TR bible but with "Alexandrian readings".
The KJV 2016 Edition rejects such erroneous modern definitions and restores the distinctness of historical KJV readings. The NKJV also tended to gravitate toward KJV marginal notes, which are in truth, rejected readings, and also toward Geneva Bible definitions, which the KJV had already cleared up.
