1 Copy God, then, as his beloved children,
2 and lead lives of love, just as Christ loved you and gave himself up for you to be a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
3 Never let any sexual vice or impurity or lust be so much as mentioned by you — that is the proper course for saints to take;
4 no, nor indecent, silly, or scurrilous talk — all that is improper. Rather, voice your thanks to God.
5 Be sure of this, that no one guilty of sexual vice or impurity or lust (that is, an idolater) possesses any inheritance in the realm of Christ and God.
6 Let no one deceive you with specious arguments; these are the vices that bring down God's anger on the sons of disobedience.
7 So avoid the company of such men.
8 For while once upon a time you were darkness, now in the Lord you are light; lead the life of those who are children of the light
9 (for the fruit of light consists in all that is good and right and true),
10 verifying what pleases the Lord.
11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless enterprises of the darkness; rather expose them.
