Ephesians 5:14-17

14 for anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says, 1"Awake, O sleeper, and 2arise from the dead, and 3Christ will shine on you."
15 4Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,
16 5making the best use of the time, because 6the days are evil.
17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what 7the will of the Lord is.
