New American Standard Bible 1995
1 Thessalonians 5:4-7
4But you, brethren, are not in 1darkness, that the day would overtake you 23like a thief;
5for you are all 4sons of light and sons of day. We are not of night nor of 5darkness;
6so then let us not 6sleep as 78others do, but let us be alert and 910sober.
7For those who sleep do their sleeping at night, and those who get drunk get 11drunk at night.
