Ephesians 6:14-20
14Stand firm therefore, 1having girded your loins with truth, and having 2put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15and having 3shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 164in addition to all, taking up the 5shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the 6flaming arrows of 7the evil one. 17And take 8the helmet of salvation, and the 9sword of the Spirit, which is 10the word of God.
1811With all 12prayer and petition 1314pray at all times 15in the Spirit, and with this in view, 1617be on the alert with all 18perseverance and 19petition for all the saints, 19and 20pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me 21in the opening of my mouth, to make known with 22boldness 23the mystery of the gospel, 20for which I am an 24ambassador 25in 26chains; that 27in proclaiming it I may speak 28boldly, 29as I ought to speak.
