Ephesians 6:11–24

^11gPut on ^hthe whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against ⁱthe schemes of the devil. ¹²For ^jwe do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against ^kthe rulers, against the authorities, against ^lthe cosmic powers over ^mthis present darkness, against ⁿthe spiritual forces of evil ^oin the heavenly places. ¹³Therefore ^ptake up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in ^qthe evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. ¹⁴Stand therefore, ^rhaving fastened on the belt of truth, and ^shaving put on the breastplate of righteousness, ¹⁵and, ^tas shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. ¹⁶In all circumstances take up ^uthe shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all ^vthe flaming darts of ^wthe evil one; ¹⁷and take ^sthe helmet of salvation, and ^xthe sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, ¹⁸praying ^yat all times ^zin the Spirit, ^awith all prayer and supplication. To that end, ^bkeep alert with all perseverance, making ^csupplication for all the saints, ¹⁹and ^dalso for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth ^eboldly to proclaim ^fthe mystery of the gospel, ²⁰for which I ^gam an ambassador ^hin chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.
