Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise

So be very careful how you live. Do not live like those who are not wise, but live wisely.

Therefore see that you walk carefully [living life with honor, purpose, and courage; shunning those who tolerate and enable evil], not as the unwise, but as wise [sensible, intelligent, discerning people]

Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise

So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise.

See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise

Don’t waste your time on useless work, mere busywork, the barren pursuits of darkness. Expose these things for the sham they are. It’s a scandal when people waste their lives on things they must do in the darkness where no one will see. Rip the cover off those frauds and see how attractive they look in the light of Christ. Wake up from your sleep, Climb out of your coffins; Christ will show you the light! So watch your step. Use your head. Make the most of every chance you get. These are desperate times!

Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise

Look therefore carefully how ye walk, not as unwise, but as wise

So be very careful how you live, not being like those with no understanding, but live honorably with true wisdom, for we are living in evil times. Take full advantage of every day as you spend your life for his purposes.
