"Because of this, it is said: “You who are sleeping: awaken, and rise up from the dead, and so shall the Christ enlighten you.” "
— Ephesians 5:14, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.”
“Wherefore he saith, Awake, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall shine upon thee. ”
“Therefore he says, "Awake, you who sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."”
“For everything made visible is light, and for this reason it says:“Awake, O sleeper! Rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you!””
“Wherefore he saith: Rise, thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead: and Christ shall enlighten thee.”
“For this reason he says, Be awake, you who are sleeping, and come up from among the dead, and Christ will be your light.”
“Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.”
And so, have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead, refute them.
For the things that are done by them in secret are shameful, even to mention.
But all things that are disputed are made manifest by the light. For all that is made manifest is light.
Because of this, it is said: “You who are sleeping: awaken, and rise up from the dead, and so shall the Christ enlighten you.”
And so, brothers, see to it that you walk cautiously, not like the foolish,
but like the wise: atoning for this age, because this is an evil time.
For this reason, do not choose to be imprudent. Instead, understand what is the will of God.
