darkness

⁵And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.

¹⁸in order to open their eyes, so that they may be converted from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive the remission of sins and a place among the saints, through the faith that is in me.’

¹²Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying: “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me does not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”

⁵And this is the announcement which we have heard from him, and which we announce to you: that God is light, and in him there is no darkness. ⁶If we claim that we have fellowship with him, and yet we walk in darkness, then we are lying and not telling the truth. ⁷But if we walk in the light, just as he also is in the light, then we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.

⁷⁹to illuminate those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, and to direct our feet in the way of peace.”

⁸For you were darkness, in times past, but now you are light, in the Lord. So then, walk as sons of the light.

¹⁰But if he walks in the nighttime, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”

¹²But darkness will not be impenetrable to you, and night will illuminate like the day: for just as its darkness is, so also is its light.

¹³For he has rescued us from the power of darkness, and he has transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of his love,

¹⁹And this is the judgment: that the Light has come into the world, and men loved darkness more than light. For their works were evil. ²⁰For everyone who does evil hates the Light and does not go toward the Light, so that his works may not be corrected. ²¹But whoever acts in truth goes toward the Light, so that his works may be manifested, because they have been accomplished in God.”

²The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. A light has risen for the inhabitants of the region of the shadow of death.

²But the earth was empty and unoccupied, and darknesses were over the face of the abyss; and so the Spirit of God was brought over the waters.

¹²For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers, against the directors of this world of darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in high places.

⁵And this is the announcement which we have heard from him, and which we announce to you: that God is light, and in him there is no darkness.

⁵For all of you are sons of light and sons of daytime; we are not of nighttime, nor of darkness.

⁹But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, an acquired people, so that you may announce the virtues of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

¹⁶A people who were sitting in darkness have seen a great light. And unto those sitting in the region of the shadow of death, a light has risen.”

¹¹And so, have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead, refute them.
