5:11 那暗昧无益的事，不要与人同行，倒要责备行这事的人。
5:12 因为他们暗中所行的，就是提起来也是可耻的。
5:13 凡事受了责备，就被光显明出来，因为一切能显明的就是光。
5:14 所以主说：
“你这睡着的人当醒过来，
从死里复活，
基督就要光照你了。”
5:15 你们要谨慎行事，不要像愚昧人，当像智慧人。
5:16 要爱惜光阴，因为现今的世代邪恶。
Ephesians 5:11-16 The Message (MSG)
11-16 Don’t waste your time on useless work, mere busywork, the barren pursuits of darkness. Expose these things for the sham they are. It’s a scandal when people waste their lives on things they must do in the darkness where no one will see. Rip the cover off those frauds and see how attractive they look in the light of Christ.
Wake up from your sleep,
Climb out of your coffins;
Christ will show you the light!
So watch your step. Use your head. Make the most of every chance you get. These are desperate times!
