Ephesians 6:11-16

11 1Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the 2schemes of the devil.

12For our 3struggle is not against 4 5flesh and blood, but 6against the rulers, against the powers, against the 7world forces of this 8darkness, against the 9spiritual forces of wickedness in 10the heavenly places.

13Therefore, take up 11the full armor of God, so that you will be able to 12resist in 13the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.

14Stand firm therefore, 14having girded your loins with truth, and having 15put on the breastplate of righteousness,

15and having 16shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

16 17in addition to all, taking up the 18shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the 19flaming arrows of 20the evil one.
