# rebel against the light
2017-06-21 20:47:54 +00:00
Possible meanings of "light" are 1) visible light or 2) spiritual light, which refers to God or living righteously. Alternate translation: "hate the daylight" or "do not want to do things openly" or "rebel against God" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

# they know not its ways, nor do they stay in its paths
2017-06-21 20:47:54 +00:00
These two lines describe the same thing, and are used together to emphasize that they do not want to follow the ways of the light. Alternate translation: "they do not know how to live a moral life; they stay far away from living a righteous life" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parallelism]])
