But ^(C1)sexual immorality ^(F1)or any impurity or greed must not even be mentioned among you, as is proper among ^(F2)saints;

and there must be no ^(C1)filthiness ^(F1)or foolish talk, or vulgar joking, which ^(C2)are not fitting, but rather ^(C3)giving of thanks.

For this you know with certainty, that ^(C1)no sexually immoral or ^(F1)impure or greedy person, which ^(F2)amounts to an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom ^(C2)of Christ and God.

^(C1)See that no one deceives you with empty words, for because of these things ^(C2)the wrath of God comes upon ^(C3)the ^(F1)sons of disobedience.

Therefore do not become ^(C1)partners with them;

for ^(C1)you were once ^(C2)darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as ^(C3)children of light

(for ^(C1)the fruit of the light consists in all ^(C2)goodness, righteousness, and truth),

^(F1)(C1)as you try to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.

^(C1)Do not participate in the useless ^(C2)deeds of ^(C3)darkness, but instead even ^(C4)expose them;

for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.

But all things become visible ^(C1)when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.

For this reason ^(F1)it says, "^(C1)Awake, sleeper, And arise from ^(C2)the dead, And Christ ^(C3)will shine on you."
