The Temple of the Living God

14 ^lDo not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For ^mwhat partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or ⁿwhat fellowship has light with darkness? 15 ^oWhat accord has Christ with Belial? ^{▼▼Greek Beliar} Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever? 16 What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For ^qwe are the temple of the living God; as God said,

^r“I will make my dwelling among them and ^swalk among them,
and ^tI will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
17 Therefore ^ugo out from their midst,
and be separate from them, says the Lord,
and touch no unclean thing;
then I will welcome you,

Ephesians 5:11

11 ^vTake no part in the ^wunfruitful ^xworks of darkness, but instead ^yexpose them.
