Kehilah In Ephesus 5:5-11 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

5. For of this you have da'as vada (with certainty), that every zoneh (fornicator) or impure person or covetous person (chamdanut is avodah zarah, avodah elilim) does not have a nachalah in the Malchut of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and of Hashem.

6. Let no one deceive you with empty dvarim. For, because of these things the Charon Af Hashem comes upon the Bnei HaMeri (sons of Rebellion).

7. Therefore, do not be shuttafim (partners) with them.

8. For you were once Choshech, but now you are Ohr (Light) in Hashem. Fier zich (comport oneself) in your derech as yeladim of HaOhr.

9. For the p'ri HaOhr is in doing chesed and tzedek and emes,

10. Proving that which is well-pleasing be'einei Hashem (in the eyes of G-d).

11. And do not involve yourself in the ma'asei haChoshech (works of darkness), those works without p'ri; but rather even expose them.
