1 Thessalonians 5:4-8

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.

7People who sleep, sleep at night; people who get drunk, get drunk at night.

8Since we belong to the day, we must be sober. We must put on faith and love as a breastplate and the hope of salvation as a helmet.
