5:1 所以你们要效法神，好像蒙爱的儿女一样；
Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children;
5:2 也要在爱里行事为人，正如基督爱我们，为我们舍了自己，作供物和祭物献与神，成为馨香之气。
And walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savor.
5:3 至于淫乱、并一切污秽、或是贪婪，在你们中间连提都不可，如此才与圣徒相宜；
But fornication and all uncleanness or greediness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints,
5:4 还有淫辞、妄语、或是粗鄙的戏言，都不相宜，宁可说感谢的话。
And obscenity and foolish talking or sly, filthy jesting, which are not becoming, but rather the giving of thanks.
5:5 因为你们晓得这事，知道凡是淫乱的，或是污秽的，或是贪婪的，（就是拜偶像的，）在基督和神的国里，都得不到基业。
For this you realize, knowing that every fornicator or unclean person or greedy person (who is an idolater) has no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
5:6 不要让人用虚空的话欺骗你们，因这些事，神的忿怒正临到那悖逆之子。
Let no one deceive you with vain words, for because of these things the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience.
5:7 所以你们不要与他们同伙。
Therefore do not be partakers with them;
5:8 你们从前是黑暗，但如今在主里面乃是光，行事为人就要像光的儿女，
For you were once darkness but are now light in the Lord; walk as children of light
5:9 （光的果子是在于一切的善、义和真实，）
(For the fruit of the light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth),
5:10 要验证何为主所喜悦的，
Proving what is well pleasing to the Lord.
5:11 不要有分于黑暗无果子的行为，倒要责备，
And do not participate in the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather even reprove them.
5:12 因为他们所行隐密的事，就是提起来也是可耻的。
For the things which are done by them in secret it is shameful even to speak of.
5:13 一切事受了责备，就被光显明了；因为凡将事显明的，就是光。
But all things which are reproved are made manifest by the light; for everything that makes manifest is light.
5:14 所以祂说，睡着的人哪，要起来，要从死人中站起来，基督就要光照你了。
Therefore He says, Awake, sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.
