Ephesians 5:13-17
13But allG3956 thingsG3956 becomeG5319 visibleG5319 1when they are 2exposedG1651 by the lightG5457, for everythingG3956 that becomesG5319 visibleG5319 is lightG5457. 14For thisG1352 reasonG1352 3it saysG3004, “4AwakeG1453, sleeperG2518, And ariseG450 from 5the deadG3498, And ChristG5547 6will shineG2017 on you.”
15ThereforeG3767 7be carefulG991G199 howG4459 you 8walkG4043, not 9as unwiseG781 menG781 but as wiseG4680, 161011makingG1805 the mostG1805 of your timeG2540, becauseG3754 12the daysG2250 are evilG4190. 17SoG1223G3778 thenG1223G3778 do not be foolishG878, but 13understandG4920 whatG5101 the willG2307 of the LordG2962 is.
