Ephesians 5:1-20
Be Imitators of God
1 Be imitators of God as beloved children
2 and walk in love, just as also Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us an offering and sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma.
3 Now sexual immorality and any impurity or greediness must not be named among you all, as is fitting of saints,
4 and obscenity and foolish talk or coarse jesting, which are not proper, but rather thanksgiving.
5 For this you all know knowing, that no sexually immoral or impure or greedy person, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
6 Let no one deceive you all with empty words; for because of this the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
7 Therefore do not be fellow partakers with them;
8 for you all were formerly darkness, but now light in the Lord; walk as children of light—
9 for the fruit of the light in all goodness and righteousness and truth—
10 testing to approve what is pleasing to the Lord,
11 and do not participate in the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even expose.
12 For it is shameful even to speak the things done by them in secret,
13 but the all being exposed by the light becomes visible, for all that becomes visible is light.
14 Therefore He says, “Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.
15 Therefore be careful how you all walk, not as unwise but as wise,
16 buying back the time, because the days are evil.
17 Because of this do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
18 And do not get drunk with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,
19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with you all’s heart to the Lord;
20 always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father.
