Ephesians 5:14-16

Living Bible

¹⁴That is why God says in the Scriptures, “Awake, O sleeper, and rise up from the dead; and Christ shall give you light.”

^15-16So be careful how you act; these are difficult days. Don’t be fools; be wise: make the most of every opportunity you have for doing good.

Ephesians 5:14-16

New International Version

¹⁴This is why it is said:

“Wake up, sleeper,^(A)
rise from the dead,^(B)
and Christ will shine on you.”^(C)

¹⁵Be very careful, then, how you live^(D)—not as unwise but as wise, ¹⁶making the most of every opportunity,^(E) because the days are evil.^(F)
