Ephesians 5:11-21

11 Have nothing to do with the things done in darkness, which are not worth anything. But show that they are wrong.
12 It is shameful even to talk about what those people do in secret.
13 But the light makes all things easy to see,
14 and everything that is made easy to see can become light. This is why it is said: "Wake up, sleeper! Rise from death, and Christ will shine on you."
15 So be very careful how you live. Do not live like those who are not wise, but live wisely.
16 Use every chance you have for doing good, because these are evil times.
17 So do not be foolish but learn what the Lord wants you to do.
18 Do not be drunk with wine, which will ruin you, but be filled with the Spirit.
19 Speak to each other with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making music in your hearts to the Lord.
20 Always give thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
21 Yield to obey each other because you respect Christ.
