Ephesians 6:10–20

The Whole Armor of God

¹⁰Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. ^11lPut on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the ²wiles of the devil. ¹²For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against ^mprincipalities, against powers, against ⁿthe rulers of ³the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. ^13oTherefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand ^pin the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

¹⁴Stand therefore, ^qhaving girded your waist with truth, ^rhaving put on the breastplate of righteousness, ^15sand having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; ¹⁶above all, taking ^tthe shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. ¹⁷And ^utake the helmet of salvation, and ^vthe sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; ^18wpraying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, ^xbeing watchful to this end with all perseverance and ^ysupplication for all the saints—¹⁹and for me, that utterance may be given to me, ^zthat I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, ²⁰for which ^aI am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
