Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time. |
Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time. |
Conduct yourselves (walk) with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunity (redeeming the time). |
Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. |
Behave yourselves wisely [living prudently and with discretion] in your relations with those of the outside world (the non-Christians), making the very most of the time and seizing (buying up) the opportunity. |
In wisdom be ordering your behavior towards those on the outside, buying up for yourselves the strategic, opportune time. |
Be wise in your behavior towards non-Christians, and make the best possible use of your time. |
Practice living prudently in your relations with outsiders, making the most of your opportunities. |
