Ephesians 5:16

⁵Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time.

¹³Therefore a prudent person keeps silent in such a time, for it is an evil time.

³⁵Jesus therefore said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn’t overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn’t know where he is going.

¹Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw near, when you will say, “I have no pleasure in them;”

¹³Therefore put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

¹⁰So then, as we have opportunity, let’s do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.

¹¹Do this, knowing the time, that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep, for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first believed.

¹⁰Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work, nor plan, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in Sheol,^[+] where you are going.

¹⁹They shall not be disappointed in the time of evil. In the days of famine they shall be satisfied.

²⁶Therefore I think that because of the distress that is on us, it’s good for a man to remain as he is.
