^{1 Ref} I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beseech you to walk worthily of the calling wherewith ye were called,

^{2 Ref} with all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

^{3 Ref} giving diligence to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

^{4 Ref} `There is' one body, and one Spirit, even as also ye were called in one hope of your calling;

^{5 Ref} one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

^{6 Ref} one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in all.

^{7 Ref} But unto each one of us was the grace given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

^{8 Ref} Wherefore he saith, When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, And gave gifts unto men.
