1
Therefore be imitators of God as dear children.
2
And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.
3
But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints;
4
neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.
5
For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
6
Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
7
Therefore do not be partakers with them.
8
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light
