1 Thessalonians 5:2-6

2You know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

3When people say, “Everything is safe and sound!” destruction will suddenly strike them. It will be as sudden as labor pains come to a pregnant woman. They won’t be able to escape.

4But, brothers and sisters, you don’t live in the dark. That day won’t take you by surprise as a thief would.

5You belong to the day and the light not to the night and the dark.

6Therefore, we must not fall asleep like other people, but we must stay awake and be sober.
