1444Do not be 45boundG2086 togetherG2086 with 46unbelieversG571; for whatG5101 47partnershipG3352 have righteousnessG1343 and lawlessnessG458, orG2228 whatG5101 fellowshipG2842 has lightG5457 with darknessG4655? 15OrG1161 whatG5101 48harmonyG4857 has ChristG5547 with 49BelialG955, orG2228 50whatG5101 has a 51believerG4103 in commonG3310 with an 52unbelieverG571? 16OrG1161 53whatG5101 agreementG4783 has the templeG3485 of GodG2316 with idolsG1497? For we are 54the templeG3485 of 55the livingG2198 GodG2316; justG2531 as GodG2316 saidG3004, “56I will 57dwellG1774 in them and 58walkG1704 amongG1704 them; And I will be their GodG2316, and they shall be My peopleG2992.1759ThereforeG1352, 60comeG1831 out from their midstG3319 and be separateG873,” saysG3004 the LordG2962. “And do not touchG681 what is uncleanG169; And I will welcomeG1523 you.1861And I will be a fatherG3962 to you, And you shall be 62sonsG5207 and daughtersG2364 to Me,” SaysG3004 the LordG2962 AlmightyG3841.
