5 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

6Let no one deceive you with empty words, for it is because of these things that the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Walk as Children of Light Eph.5.6-21Μηδεὶς ὑμᾶς ἀπατάτω κενοῖς λόγοις, διὰ ταῦτα γὰρ ἐρχεται ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐπὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς τῆς ἀπειθείας.
7Therefore do not associate with them, μὴ οὖν γίνεσθε συμμέτοχοι αὐτῶν·
8for once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light  ἦτε γάρ ποτε σκότος, νῦν δὲ φῶς ἐν κυρίῳ· ὡς τέκνα φωτὸς περιπατεῖτε
9(for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), - ὁ γὰρ καρπὸς τοῦ φωτὸς ἐν πάσῃ ἀγαθωσύνῃ καὶ δικαιοσύνῃ καὶ ἀληθείᾳ -
10and try to learn what is pleasing to the Lord. δοκιμάζοντες τί ἐστιν εὐάρεστον τῷ κυρίῳ·
11Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. καὶ μὴ συγκοινωνεῖτε τοῖς ἐργοις τοῖς ἀκάρποις τοῦ σκότους, μᾶλλον δὲ καὶ ἐλέγχετε,
12For it is a shame even to speak of the things that they do in secret; τὰ γὰρ κρυφῇ γινόμενα ὑπ' αὐτῶν αἰσχρόν ἐστιν καὶ λέγειν·
13but when anything is exposed by the light it becomes visible, for anything that becomes visible is light. τὰ δὲ πάντα ἐλεγχόμενα ὑπὸ τοῦ φωτὸς φανεροῦται,
14Therefore it is said,

"Awake, O sleeper,
and arise from the dead,
and Christ shall give you light."

 πᾶν γὰρ τὸ φανερούμενον φῶς ἐστιν. διὸ λέγει,

Ἔγειρε, ὁ καθεύδων,
καὶ ἀνάστα ἐκ τῶν νεκρῶν,
καὶ ἐπιφαύσει σοι ὁ Χριστός.

15Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,  Βλέπετε οὖν ἀκριβῶς πῶς περιπατεῖτε, μὴ ὡς ἀσοφοι ἀλλ' ὡς σοφοί,
16making the most of the time, because the days are evil.  ἐξαγοραζόμενοι τὸν καιρόν, ὅτι αἱ ἡμέραι πονηραί εἰσιν.
17Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.  διὰ τοῦτο μὴ γίνεσθε ἀφρονες, ἀλλὰ συνίετε τί τὸ θέλημα τοῦ κυρίου.
18And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but be filled with the Spirit,  καὶ μὴ μεθύσκεσθε οἰνῳ, ἐν ᾧ ἐστιν ἀσωτία, ἀλλὰ πληροῦσθε ἐν πνεύματι,
19addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with all your heart,  λαλοῦντες ἑαυτοῖς ἐν ψαλμοῖς καὶ ὑμνοις καὶ ᾠδαῖς πνευματικαῖς, ᾀδοντες καὶ ψάλλοντες τῇ καρδίᾳ ὑμῶν τῷ κυρίῳ,
20always and for everything giving thanks in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father. εὐχαριστοῦντες πάντοτε ὑπὲρ πάντων ἐν ὀνόματι τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τῷ θεῷ καὶ πατρί,
21Be subject to one another out of reverence for Christ. ὑποτασσόμενοι ἀλλήλοις ἐν φόβῳ Χριστοῦ.
