[1] I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, [2] With all lowliness and with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; [3] Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. [4] There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in hope calling; [5] One Lord, one faith, baptism, [6] One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in all. [7] But unto every one is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. [8] Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.
