1 Thessalonians 5:6-10

6so then, let’s not 1sleep as 23others do, but let’s be alert and 45sober.

7For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who are drunk, 6get drunk at night.

8But since 7we are of the day, let’s 8be 9sober, having put on the 10breastplate of 11faith and love, and as a 12helmet, the 13hope of salvation.

9For God has not destined us for 14wrath, but for 15obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

1016who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep, we will live together with Him.
