  1. Ephesians 1:4

    καθὼς ἐξελέξατο ἡμᾶς ἐν αὐτῷ πρὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου εἶναι ἡμᾶς ἁγίους καὶ ἀμώμους κατενώπιον αὐτοῦ ἐν ἀγάπῃ

    According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

    Gelijk Hij ons uitverkoren heeft in Hem, voor de grondlegging der wereld, opdat wij zouden heilig en onberispelijk zijn voor Hem in de liefde;

  2. Ephesians 1:15

    Διὰ τοῦτο κἀγὼ ἀκούσας τὴν καθ᾽ ὑμᾶς πίστιν ἐν τῷ κυρίῳ Ἰησοῦ καὶ τὴν ἀγάπην τὴν εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἁγίους

    Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

    Daarom ook ik, gehoord hebbende het geloof in den Heere Jezus, dat onder u is, en de liefde tot al de heiligen,

  3. Ephesians 2:4

    Ὁ δὲ θεὸς πλούσιος ὢν ἐν ἐλέει διὰ τὴν πολλὴν ἀγάπην αὐτοῦ ἣν ἠγάπησεν ἡμᾶς,

    But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

    Maar God, Die rijk is in barmhartigheid door Zijn grote liefde, waarmede Hij ons liefgehad heeft,

  4. Ephesians 3:17

    κατοικῆσαι τὸν Χριστὸν διὰ τῆς πίστεως ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν ἐν ἀγάπῃ ἐρριζωμένοι καὶ τεθεμελιωμένοι,

    That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

    Opdat Christus door het geloof in uw harten wone, en gij in de liefde geworteld en gegrond zijt;

  5. Ephesians 3:19

    γνῶναί τε τὴν ὑπερβάλλουσαν τῆς γνώσεως ἀγάπην τοῦ Χριστοῦ, ἵνα πληρωθῆτε εἰς πᾶν τὸ πλήρωμα τοῦ θεοῦ.

    And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

    En bekennen de liefde van Christus, die de kennis te boven gaat, opdat gij vervuld wordt tot al de volheid Gods.

  6. Ephesians 4:2

    μετὰ πάσης ταπεινοφροσύνης καὶ πραΰτητος, μετὰ μακροθυμίας, ἀνεχόμενοι ἀλλήλων ἐν ἀγάπῃ,

    Met alle ootmoedigheid en zachtmoedigheid, met lankmoedigheid, verdragende elkander in liefde;

  7. Ephesians 4:15

    ἀληθεύοντες δὲ ἐν ἀγάπῃ αὐξήσωμεν εἰς αὐτὸν τὰ πάντα, ὅς ἐστιν ἡ κεφαλή, ὁ Χριστὸς

    But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

    Maar de waarheid betrachtende in liefde, alleszins zouden opwassen in Hem, Die het Hoofd is, namelijk Christus;

  8. Ephesians 4:16

    ἐξ οὗ πᾶν τὸ σῶμα συναρμολογούμενον καὶ συμβιβαζόμενον διὰ πάσης ἁφῆς τῆς ἐπιχορηγίας κατ᾽ ἐνέργειαν ἐν μέτρῳ ἑνὸς ἑκάστου μέρους τὴν αὔξησιν τοῦ σώματος ποιεῖται εἰς οἰκοδομὴν ἑαυτοῦ ἐν ἀγάπῃ.

    From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

    Uit Welken het gehele lichaam bekwamelijk samengevoegd en samen vastgemaakt zijnde, door alle voegselen der toebrenging, naar de werking van een iegelijk deel in zijn maat, den wasdom des lichaams bekomt, tot zijns zelfs opbouwing in de liefde.

  9. Ephesians 5:2

    καὶ περιπατεῖτε ἐν ἀγάπῃ καθὼς καὶ ὁ Χριστὸς ἠγάπησεν ἡμᾶς καὶ παρέδωκεν ἑαυτὸν ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν προσφορὰν καὶ θυσίαν τῷ θεῷ εἰς ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας.

    And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

    En wandelt in de liefde, gelijkerwijs ook Christus ons liefgehad heeft, en Zichzelven voor ons heeft overgegeven tot een offerande en een slachtoffer, Gode tot een welriekenden reuk.

  10. Ephesians 6:23

    εἰρήνη τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς καὶ ἀγάπη μετὰ πίστεως ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς καὶ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ.

    Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Vrede zij den broederen, en liefde met geloof, van God den Vader, en den Heere Jezus Christus.

Lexicon

ἀγάπη, -ης, ἡ
[in LXX for אַהֲבָה, which is also rendered by ἀγάπησις and φιλία ;]
love, goodwill, esteem. Outside of bibl. and eccl. books, there is no clear instance (with Deiss., LAE, 18:4, 70:2, cf. the same writer in Constr. Quar., ii, 4; and with MM, VGT, see word, cf. Dr. Moulton in Exp. Times, xxvi, 3, 139). In NT, like ἀγαπάω, -ῶ,
__1. Of men's love:
__(a) to one another, Jhn.13:35;
__(b) to God, 1Jn.2:5.
__2. Of divine love;
__(a) God's love: to men, Rom.5:8; to Christ, Jhn.17:26;
__(b) Christ's love to men: Rom.8:35.
__3. In pl., love feasts: Ju 12 (DB, iii, 157).
SYN.: φιλία. ἀ., signifying properly (see: ἀγαπάω) love which chooses its object, is taken over from LXX, where its connotation is more general, into NT, and there used exclusively to express that spiritual bond of love between God and man and between man and man, in Christ, which is characteristic of Christianity. It is thusdistinct from φιλία, friendship (Jas.4:4 only), στοργή, natural affection (in NT only in compounds, see: ἄστοργος) and ἔρως, sexual love, which is not used in NT, its place being taken by ἐπιθυμία. (Cf. ἀγαπάω; and see Abbott, Essays, 70f.; DB, vol. i., 555; Cremer, 13, 593; MM, VGT, see word). (AS)
