Ephesians 5:17-21

17Therefore do not be foolish, but 1understand what the will of the Lord is. 18And 2do not get drunk with wine, 3in which there is 4debauchery, but be 5filled with the Spirit, 196speaking to 7one another in 8psalms and 9hymns and spiritual 10songs, 11singing and making melody with your hearts to the Lord; 2012always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to our 13God and Father; 211415and subject yourselves to one another in the 1617fear of Christ.
