Ephesians 5:10-18
English Standard Version
10 and (A)try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord. 11 (B)Take no part in the (C)unfruitful (D)works of darkness, but instead (E)expose them. 12 For (F)it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret. 13 But when (G)anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible, 14 for anything that becomes visible is light.

New International Version

Instead, be filled with the Spirit,(L)

17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
