³⁴ “A new command^(A) I give you: Love one another.^(B) As I have loved you, so you must love one another.^{(C) 35} By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”^(D)

⁵ May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind^(A) toward each other that Christ Jesus had, ⁶ so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify^(B) the God and Father^(C) of our Lord Jesus Christ.

³ Make every effort to keep the unity^(A) of the Spirit through the bond of peace.^(B)

⁷ Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people,^{(A) 8} because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do,^(B) whether they are slave or free.

¹¹ Put on the full armor of God,^(A) so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. ¹² For our struggle is not against flesh and blood,^(B) but against the rulers, against the authorities,^(C) against the powers^(D) of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.^{(E) 13} Therefore put on the full armor of God,^(F) so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. ¹⁴ Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist,^(G) with the breastplate of righteousness in place,^{(H) 15} and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.^{(I) 16} In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith,^(J) with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.^{(K) 17} Take the helmet of salvation^(L) and the sword of the Spirit,^(M) which is the word of God.^(N)
