Ephesians 6:12-17

12For our 1struggle is not against 2 3flesh and blood, but 4against the rulers, against the powers, against the 5world forces of this 6darkness, against the 7spiritual forces of wickedness in 8the heavenly places. 13Therefore, take up 9the full armor of God, so that you will be able to 10resist in 11the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. 14Stand firm therefore, 12having girded your loins with truth, and having 13put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15and having 14shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 15in addition to all, taking up the 16shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the 17flaming arrows of 18the evil one. 17And take 19the helmet of salvation, and the 20sword of the Spirit, which is 21the word of God.
