2 Corinthians 6:16-18
Lexham English Bible

16 And what agreement does the temple of God have with idols? For we are the temple of the living God, just as God said,

“I will live in[a] them and will walk about among them,
and I will be their God and they will be my people.”[b]
17 Therefore “come out from their midst
and be separate,” says the Lord,
“and do not touch what is unclean,[c]
and I will welcome you,[d]
18 and I will be a father to you,
and you will be sons and daughters to me,”[e]
says the all-powerful Lord.
