¹⁴Don’t team up with those who are unbelievers. How can righteousness be a partner with wickedness? How can light live with darkness? ¹⁵What harmony can there be between Christ and the devil#6:15 Greek Beliar; various other manuscripts render this proper name of the devil as Belian, Beliab, or Belial.? How can a believer be a partner with an unbeliever? ¹⁶And what union can there be between God’s temple and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God said:“I will live in themand walk among them.I will be their God,and they will be my people.#6:16 Lev 26:12; Ezek 37:27. ¹⁷Therefore, come out from among unbelievers,and separate yourselves from them, says the Lord.Don’t touch their filthy things,and I will welcome you.#6:17 Isa 52:11; Ezek 20:34 (Greek version). ¹⁸And I will be your Father,and you will be my sons and daughters,says the Lord Almighty.#6:18 2 Sam 7:14.”
