Ephesians 6:14-20
14Stand firm therefore, 1having belted your waist with truth, and having 2put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15and having 3strapped on your feet 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 every 12prayer and request, 1314pray at all times 15in the Spirit, and with this in view, 1617be alert with all 18perseverance and every 19request for all the 20saints, 19and 21pray in my behalf, that speech may be given to me 22in the opening of my mouth, to make known with 23boldness 24the mystery of the gospel, 20for which I am an 25ambassador 26in 27chains; that 28in proclaiming it I may speak 29boldly, 30as I ought to speak.
