4. and obscenity, and foolish talk, or coarse jesting (which are not proper), but rather thanksgiving.
5. For this you know for certain, that every sexually immoral person, or unclean person, or greedy person (who is an idolater), does not have an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
6. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience.
7. Therefore do not be sharers with them,
8. for you were formerly darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live like children of light
9. (for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth),
10. trying to learn what is well-pleasing to the Lord.
11. And do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather even expose them.
12. For it is shameful even to speak about the things being done by them in secret,
13. but all things exposed by the light are made visible,
14. for everything made visible is light. Therefore it says, Wake up, sleeper, and rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.
15. Therefore, consider carefully how you live, not as unwise but as wise,
16. making the most of the time because the days are evil.
17. Because of this do not become foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
