Ephesians 5:8-17

8ForG1063 ye wereG1510 sometimesG4218 darknessG4655, butG1161 nowG3568 are ye lightG5457 inG1722 the LordG2962: walkG4043 asG5613 childrenG5043 of lightG5457: 9(ForG1063 the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG3588G4151 is inG1722 allG3956 goodnessG19 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 truthG225;) 10ProvingG1381 whatG5101 isG1510 acceptableG2101 unto the LordG3588G2962. 11AndG2532 haveG4790 noG3361 fellowshipG4790 with the unfruitfulG175 worksG3588G2041 of darknessG3588G4655, butG1161 ratherG3123 reproveG1651 them. 12ForG1063 it isG1510 a shameG150 evenG2532 to speakG3004 ofG5259 those things whichG3588 are doneG1096 of themG846 in secretG2931. 13ButG1161 all thingsG3956 thatG3588 are reprovedG1651 are made manifestG5319 byG5259 the lightG3588G5457: forG1063 whatsoeverG3956 doth make manifestG5319 isG1510 lightG5457. 14WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004, Awake thouG1453 thatG3588 sleepestG2518, andG2532 ariseG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 ChristG3588G5547 shall giveG2017 theeG4771 lightG2017.

15SeeG991 thenG3767 thatG4459 ye walkG4043 circumspectlyG199, notG3361 asG5613 foolsG781, butG235 asG5613 wiseG4680, 16RedeemingG1805 the timeG3588G2540, becauseG3754 the daysG3588G2250 areG1510 evilG4190. 17WhereforeG3778 be yeG1096 notG3361 unwiseG878, butG235 understandingG4920 whatG5101 the willG3588G2307 of the LordG3588G2962 is.
