Ephesians 6:10-20
10Finally, 1be strong in the Lord and in 2the strength of His might. 113Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the 4schemes of the devil. 12For our 5struggle is not against 67flesh and blood, but 8against the rulers, against the powers, against the 9world forces of this 10darkness, against the 11spiritual forces of wickedness in 12the heavenly places. 13Therefore, take up 13the full armor of God, so that you will be able to 14resist in 15the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. 14Stand firm therefore, 16having girded your loins with truth, and having 17put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15and having 18shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 1619in addition to all, taking up the 20shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the 21flaming arrows of 22the evil one. 17And take 23the helmet of salvation, and the 24sword of the Spirit, which is 25the word of God.
1826With all 27prayer and petition 2829pray at all times 30in the Spirit, and with this in view, 3132be on the alert with all 33perseverance and 34petition for all the saints, 19and 35pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me 36in the opening of my mouth, to make known with 37boldness 38the mystery of the gospel, 20for which I am an 39ambassador 40in 41chains; that 42in proclaiming it I may speak 43boldly, 44as I ought to speak.
