Ephesians 5:8-13

ASV

NIV

8 For ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord: walk as children of light
8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light
9 (for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth),
9 (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth)
10 proving what is well-pleasing unto the Lord;
10 and find out what pleases the Lord.
11 and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them;
11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.
12 for the things which are done by them in secret it is a shame even to speak of.
12 It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret.
13 But all things when they are reproved are made manifest by the light: for everything that is made manifest is light.
13 But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light.
