Ephesians 5:10-18
1012as you tryG1381 toG1381 learnG1381 whatG5101 is pleasingG2101 to the LordG2962. 113Do not participateG4790 in the uselessG175 4deedsG2041 of 5darknessG4655, but insteadG3123 evenG2532 6exposeG1651 them; 12for it is disgracefulG150 evenG2532 to speakG3004 of the things which are doneG1096 by them inG2931 secretG2931. 13But allG3956 thingsG3956 becomeG5319 visibleG5319 7when they are exposedG1651 by the lightG5457, for everythingG3956 that becomesG5319 visibleG5319 is lightG5457. 14For thisG1352 reasonG1352 8it saysG3004, “9AwakeG1453, sleeperG2518, And ariseG450 from 10the deadG3498, And ChristG5547 11will shineG2017 onG2017 you.”
15SoG3767 thenG3767, 12be carefulG991G199 howG4459 you 13walkG4043, not 14as unwiseG781 peopleG781 but as wiseG4680, 161516makingG1805 theG1805 mostG1805 ofG1805 your timeG2540, becauseG3754 17the daysG2250 are evilG4190. 17ThereforeG1223G3778 do not be foolishG878, but 18understandG4920 whatG5101 the willG2307 of the LordG2962 is. 18And 19do not getG3182 drunkG3182 with wineG3631, 20in which there is 21debaucheryG810, but be 22filledG4137 with the SpiritG4151,
