2 Corinthians 6:16 in Context — 2 Corinthians 6

14 Não vos ajunteis em outro jugo com os descrentes. Porque, que parceria tem a justiça com injustiça? E que parceria tem a luz com as trevas?

15 E que acordo há entre Cristo e Belial? Ou que parte tem o crente com o incrédulo?

16 E que acordo há entre o Templo de Deus e os ídolos? Porque vós sois o templo do Deus vivente, como Deus disse: Neles habitarei, e entre [eles] andarei; e eu serei seu Deus, e eles serão meu povo.

17 Portanto: saí do meio deles, e vos separai, diz o Senhor; e não toqueis coisa impura, e eu vos aceitarei.

18 E eu vos serei por Pai, e vós sereis para mim filhos e filhas,diz o Senhor Todo Poderoso.
