Literal Version

6:14 Don’t be teamed with unbelievers

14 Don’t be teamed together with unbelievers, because how can there be a partnership between obeying and disobeying God, or in other words, how can light socialise with darkness? 15 So what harmony can Messiah have with Satan, or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? 16 What agreement can God’s temple have with idols, because we are the temple of the living God?[ref] As God said,

‘I will live with them

and I will walk among them.

I will be their god

and they will be my people.’[ref]

17 Therefore Yahweh says,

‘Come out from among them and be separate.

Touch nothing that’s ceremonially prohibited

and then I will accept you.[ref]

18 I will be a Father for you,

and you will be my sons and daughters,’

says Yahweh the all-powerful.[ref]

7 Dear brothers and sisters, because we have those promises we should avoid doing anything that would defile our bodies or our spirits, thus staying pure due to our respect for God.

6:16: 1Cor 3:16; 6:19.

6:16: Lev 26:12; Eze 37:27.

6:17: Isa 52:11.

6:18: 2Sam 7:14; 1Ch 17:13; Isa 43:6; Jer 31:9.

14 Not be _becoming mispairing with _unbelievers, because/for what partnership exists by _righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship exists by _light with darkness?

15 And what harmony is of_chosen _one /messiah with Beliar, or what portion exists by_a_believer with an_unbeliever?

16 And what agreement exists by_the_temple of_god with idols?
for we the_temple of_god are the_living, as said the god, that I _will _be _dwelling in them, and I _will _be _walking _among them, and I _will _be of _them god, and they will _be of _me a_people.

17 Therefore come _out from the_midst of _them and be _set _apart, is _saying the_master:
and against_the_unclean not be _touching:
And _I will _be _receiving _in you _all.

18 And I _will _be to _you _all for a_father, and you _all will _be to _me for sons and daughters, is _saying the_master almighty.

Literal Version CO2 7:1

7 Therefore these having the promises, beloved, we _may _cleanse ourselves from every defilement of _flesh and spirit, accomplishing holiness in the_reverence of_god.
