Ephesians 5:14-16
GOD’S WORD Translation

14 because light makes everything easy to see. That’s why it says:

“Wake up, sleeper!
Rise from the dead,

15 So then, be very careful how you live. Don’t live like foolish people but like wise people. 16 Make the most of your opportunities because these are evil days.
