Ephesians 5:6-13
61Let noG3367 oneG3367 deceiveG538 you with emptyG2756 wordsG3056, for becauseG1223 of theseG3778 thingsG3778 2the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 comesG2064 upon 3the sonsG5207 of disobedienceG543.
7ThereforeG3767 do not be 4partakersG4830 with them;
8for 5you were formerlyG4218 6darknessG4655, but nowG3568 you are LightG5457 in the LordG2962; walkG4043 as 7childrenG5043 of LightG5457
9(for 8the fruitG2590 of the LightG5457 consists in allG3956 9goodnessG19 and righteousnessG1343 and truthG225),
101011tryingG1381 to learnG1381 whatG5101 is pleasingG2101 to the LordG2962.
1112Do not participateG4790 in the unfruitfulG175 13deedsG2041 of 14darknessG4655, but insteadG3123 evenG2532 1516exposeG1651 them;
12for it is disgracefulG150 evenG2532 to speakG3004 of the things which are doneG1096 by them in secretG2931.
13But allG3956 thingsG3956 becomeG5319 visibleG5319 17when they are 18exposedG1651 by the lightG5457, for everythingG3956 that becomesG5319 visibleG5319 is lightG5457.
