Ephesians 6:8-23
-
8 Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.
-
9 And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.
-
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
-
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
-
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
-
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
-
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
-
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
-
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
-
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
-
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
-
19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
-
20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
-
21 But that ye also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things:
-
22 Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.
-
23 Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
