Ephesians 5:6-12

English Standard Version

^6 (A)Let no one ^(B)deceive you with empty words, for because of these things ^(C)the wrath of God comes upon ^(D)the sons of disobedience. ⁷ Therefore ^(E)do not become partners with them; ⁸ for ^(F)at one time you were ^(G)darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. ^(H)Walk as children of light ⁹ (for ^(I)the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), ¹⁰ and ^(J)try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord. ^11 (K)Take no part in the ^(L)unfruitful ^(M)works of darkness, but instead ^(N)expose them. ¹² For ^(O)it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret.
