Children of Light
8 For you were once darkness, but now [you are] light in [the] Lord. Walk as children of light, 9 for the fruit of the Spirit[fn] [consists] in all goodness, righteousness, and truth. 10 Test and prove what pleases the Lord.
11 Have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose [them]. 12 For it is shameful even to mention what [the disobedient] do in secret. 13 But everything exposed by the light becomes visible,[fn] for everything that is illuminated becomes a light [itself]. 14 So it is said:
rise up from the dead,
and Christ will shine on you.”
15 Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore {do} not be foolish, but understand[fn] what the Lord’s will [is]. 18 {Do} not get drunk on wine, which leads to reckless indiscretion. Instead, be filled with [the] Spirit.
19 Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your hearts to the Lord, 20 always giving thanks to God [the] Father for everything in [the] name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
