15 What harmony can there be between Christ and the devil[a]? How can a believer be a partner with an unbeliever? 16 And 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 them
    and walk among them.
I will be their God,
    and they will be my people.[b]

    and separate yourselves from them, says the Lord.
Don’t touch their filthy things,
    and I will welcome you.[c]
