Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Ephesians 5
⁹ (for the fruit of the Light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth),
¹⁰ trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.
¹¹ Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them;
¹² for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.
¹³ But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.
¹⁴ For this reason it says, "Awake, sleeper, And arise from the dead, And Christ will shine on you."
¹⁵ Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,
¹⁶ making the most of your time, because the days are evil.
¹⁷ So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
¹⁸ And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,
¹⁹ speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord;
