American Standard Version
"for ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord: walk as children of light "
— Ephesians 5:8, American Standard Version
“For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:”
“For you were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light,”
“for you were at one time darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live like children of light–”
“For you were heretofore darkness, but now light in the Lord. Walk then as children of the light.”
“For you at one time were dark, but now are light in the Lord: let your behaviour be that of children of light”
“For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:”
For this ye know of a surety, that no fornicator, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
Let no man deceive you with empty words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the sons of disobedience.
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;
