    New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition)
    • 5:15

      not as unwise but as wise persons: Paul here adds to his comment on how “children of light” should walk, or conduct themselves. (Eph 5:8) Enlightened by the truth of God’s Word, they gain wisdom that is superior to mere intellectual ability or the worldly wisdom that amounts to foolishness in God’s eyes. (1Co 1:19, 20; 3:19) Godly wisdom is based on profound respect for Jehovah. (Pr 9:10) It moves Christians to “keep perceiving what the will of Jehovah is.” They eagerly make sure of “what is acceptable to the Lord.” They are aware of the urgency of the times in which they live. So the way they walk is in sharp contrast with the way in which “unwise” and “unreasonable” ones walk.​—Eph 5:10, 15-17; Col 4:5.
