2. It means you have turned from your own desires and want to obey God for the rest of your life.
3. You have already lived long enough like people who don't know God. You were immoral and followed your evil desires. You went around drinking and feasting and carrying on. In fact, you even worshipped disgusting idols.
4. Now your former friends wonder why you have stopped running around with them, and they curse you for it.
5. But they will have to answer to God, who judges the living and the dead.
