Colossians 4:5

New King James Version

⁵^(A)Walk in ^(B)wisdom toward those who are outside, ^(C)redeeming the time.

Colossians 4:5

New Catholic Bible

Christian Behavior.^[a] ⁵Conduct yourselves wisely toward outsiders, making the most of your opportunity.

Colossians 4:5 The behavior of Christians must serve as a sign to those who do not share their faith. The present period is the time of the Church, which must be regarded as a final time of grace, both short (see 1 Cor 7:29) and perilous (see Eph 5:16), in which human beings can open themselves to salvation while waiting for Christ’s Second Coming (see Gal 6:10).

⁵Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.
