American Standard Version
"proving what is well-pleasing unto the Lord; "
— Ephesians 5:10, American Standard Version
“Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.”
“proving what is well pleasing to the Lord.”
“trying to learn what is pleasing to the Lord.”
“Proving what is well pleasing to God.”
“Testing by experience what is well-pleasing to the Lord;”
“Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.”
Be not ye therefore partakers with them;
for ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord: walk as children of light
(for the fruit of the light is in all goodness and righteousness and truth),
proving what is well-pleasing unto the Lord;
and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them;
for the things which are done by them in secret it is a shame even to speak of.
But all things when they are reproved are made manifest by the light: for everything that is made manifest is light.
