8. For in another time ye were darkness, but now ye are light in the Lord: walk as children of light;
9. (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth),
10. approving what is well pleasing unto the Lord.
11. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
12. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which they do in secret.
13. But all these things when they are reproved by the light are made manifest, for the light is that which manifests everything.
14. Therefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest and arise from the dead, and the Christ shall shine upon thee.
15. See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
16. redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17. Therefore, be ye not unwise, but understanding of what the will of the Lord is.
18. And be not drunk with wine, in which there is excess, but be filled with the Spirit,
19. speaking among yourselves with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and praising the Lord in your hearts,
20. giving thanks always for all things unto the God and Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
21. submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.
22. Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husband, as unto the Lord.
