1 Thessalonians 5:4-10

4ButG1161 yeG4771, brethrenG80, areG1510 notG3756 inG1722 darknessG4655, thatG2443 that dayG3588G2250 should overtakeG2638 youG4771 asG5613 a thiefG2812.

5YeG4771 areG1510 allG3956 the childrenG5207 of lightG5457, andG2532 the childrenG5207 of the dayG2250: we areG1510 notG3756 of the nightG3571, norG3761 of darknessG4655.

6ThereforeG3767 let usG2518 notG3361 sleepG2518, asG5613 do othersG3062; butG235 let us watchG1127 andG2532 be soberG3525.

7ForG1063 theyG2518 that sleepG2518 sleepG2518 in the nightG3571; andG2532 theyG3184 that be drunkenG3182 are drunkenG3184 in the nightG3571.

8ButG1161 letG3525 usG1473, who areG1510 of the dayG2250, be soberG3525, putting onG1746 the breastplateG2382 of faithG4102 andG2532 loveG26; andG2532 for an helmetG4030, the hopeG1680 of salvationG4991.

9ForG3754 GodG3588G2316 hathG5087 notG3756 appointedG5087 usG1473 toG1519 wrathG3709, butG235 toG1519 obtainG4047 salvationG4991 byG1223 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547,

10Who diedG599 forG5228 usG1473, thatG2443, whetherG1535 we wakeG1127 orG1535 sleepG2518, we should liveG2198 togetherG260 withG4862 himG846.
