1 Thessalonians 5:3-5

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

³ When they say, “There is peace and security,” then sudden destruction will come upon them, as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and there will be no escape!^{(A) 4} But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness, for that day to surprise you like a thief;^{(B) 5} for you are all children of light and children of the day; we are not of the night or of darkness.
