<h3>Unity in the Body of Christ</h3>4 I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, 2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, 3 eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call— 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. 7 But grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ's gift. 8 Therefore it says,<poetry> “When he ascended on high he led a host of captives, <indent>and he gave gifts to men.” </indent></poetry> 9 ( In saying, “He ascended,” what does it mean but that he had also descended into the lower regions, the earth? 10 He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.) 11 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, 12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, 13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, 14 so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. 15 Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, 16 from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love. <h3>The New Life</h3> 17 Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds. 18 They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart. 19 They have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. 20 But that is not the way you learned Christ!— 21 assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, 22 to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, 23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. 25 Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another. 26 Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and give no opportunity to the devil. 28 Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need. 29 Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. 32 Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

(<cr>1</cr>In saying, “He ascended,” what does it mean but that he had also descended into <cr>2</cr>the lower regions, the earth?<ft>1</ft>

<cr>1</cr>to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for <cr>2</cr>building up <cr>3</cr>the body of Christ,

Ephesians 4:13

so that we may no longer be children, <cr>1</cr>tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in <cr>2</cr>deceitful schemes.

Ephesians 4:14

Rather, <cr>1</cr>speaking the truth in love, we are to <cr>2</cr>grow up in every way into him who is <cr>3</cr>the head, into Christ,

Ephesians 4:15

<cr>1</cr>from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, <cr>2</cr>when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.

Ephesians 4:17

Now this I say and <cr>1</cr>testify in the Lord, <cr>2</cr>that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, <cr>3</cr>in the futility of their minds.

They <cr>1</cr>are darkened in their understanding, <cr>2</cr>alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to <cr>3</cr>their hardness of heart.

Ephesians 4:18

They <cr>1</cr>have become callous and <cr>2</cr>have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity.

Ephesians 4:19

But that is not the way you <cr>1</cr>learned Christ!—

assuming that <cr>1</cr>you have heard about him and <cr>2</cr>were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus,

Ephesians 4:21

to <cr>1</cr>put off <cr>2</cr>your old self,<ft>1</ft> which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through <cr>3</cr>deceitful desires,

and <cr>1</cr>to be renewed in the spirit of your minds,

and to put on <cr>1</cr>the new self, <cr>2</cr>created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.

and <cr>1</cr>give no opportunity to the devil.

Ephesians 4:27

Let the thief no longer steal, but rather <cr>1</cr>let him labor, <cr>2</cr>doing honest work with his own hands, so <cr>3</cr>that he may have something to share with anyone in need.

Ephesians 4:28

<cr>1</cr>Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give <cr>2</cr>grace to those who hear.

Ephesians 4:32

 1 I therefore,  a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to  walk in a manner worthy of  the calling to which you have been called, 2 with all  humility and  gentleness, with  patience,  bearing with one another in love, 3 eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in  the bond of peace. 4 There is  one body and  one Spirit—just as you were called to the one  hope that belongs to your call— 5  one Lord,  one faith,  one baptism, 6  one God and Father of all,  who is over all and through all and in all. 7 But  grace was given  to each one of us  according to the measure of Christ's gift. 8 Therefore it says,  “When he ascended on high  he led a host of captives, and he gave gifts to men.”  9 ( In saying, “He ascended,” what does it mean but that he had also descended into  the lower regions, the earth?  10 He who descended is the one who also  ascended  far above all the heavens, that he might  fill all things.) 11 And  he gave the  apostles, the prophets, the  evangelists, the  shepherds  and teachers,  12  to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for  building up  the body of Christ, 13 until we all attain to  the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God,  to mature manhood,  to the measure of the stature of  the fullness of Christ, 14 so that we may no longer be children,  tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in  deceitful schemes. 15 Rather,  speaking the truth in love, we are to  grow up in every way into him who is  the head, into Christ, 16  from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped,  when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love. 17 Now this I say and  testify in the Lord,  that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do,  in the futility of their minds. 18 They  are darkened in their understanding,  alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to  their hardness of heart. 19 They  have become callous and  have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. 20 But that is not the way you  learned Christ!— 21 assuming that  you have heard about him and  were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, 22 to  put off  your old self,  which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through  deceitful desires, 23 and  to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to put on  the new self,  created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness. 25 Therefore, having put away falsehood, let each one of you  speak the truth with his neighbor, for  we are members one of another. 26  Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and  give no opportunity to the devil. 28 Let the thief no longer steal, but rather  let him labor,  doing honest work with his own hands, so  that he may have something to share with anyone in need. 29  Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give  grace to those who hear. 30 And  do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God,  by whom you were sealed for the day of  redemption. 31  Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. 32  Be kind to one another, tenderhearted,  forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

From Wikipedia: 

The English Standard Version (ESV) is an English translation of the Bible. The ESV was published in 2001 by Crossway, having been "created by a team of more than 100 leading evangelical scholars and pastors." The ESV relies on recently published critical editions of the original Hebrew and Greek texts. Crossway claim that the ESV continues a legacy begun by the Tyndale New Testament of precision and faithfulness in English translation of the original text, followed in the same standard by "the King James Version of 1611 (KJV), the English Revised Version of 1885 (RV), the American Standard Version of 1901 (ASV), and the Revised Standard Version of 1952 and 1971." Crossway describes the ESV as a translation that "emphasizes 'word-for-word' accuracy, literary excellence, and depth of meaning." Crossway also describes the ESV as a translation that adheres to an "essentially literal" translation philosophy, taking into account "differences in grammar, syntax, and idiom between current literary English and the original languages."

The ESV is derived from the 1971 text edition of the Revised Standard Version (RSV). ESV Translation Oversight Committee member Wayne Grudem claims that approximately eight percent (or about 60,000 words) of the 1971 RSV text being used for the ESV was revised as of first publication in 2001. Grudem states that the committee removed "every trace of liberal influence that had caused such criticism from evangelicals when the RSV was first published in 1952." Although, Grudem also states that much of the 1971 RSV text left unchanged by the committee "is simply 'the best of the best' of the KJV tradition."

With regard to gender language, the ESV Translation Oversight Committee state that "the goal of the ESV is to render literally what is in the original."[9] The committee expands on this position in claiming that, although the ESV avoids using gender-neutral language (for the purpose of preserving contextual meaning found in the original text), the translation does utilize gender-neutral language in specific cases. The committee further state that their objective was "transparency to the original text, allowing the reader to understand the original on its own terms rather than in the terms of our present-day Western culture."[9] The ESV Study Bible often details in its commentary why a complementarian interpretation of the original text may have been rendered in translation.
