But since (B)we are of the day, let’s (C)be [a]sober, having put on the (D)breastplate of (E)faith and love, and as a (F)helmet, the (G)hope of salvation. For God has not destined us for (H)wrath, but for (I)obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, 10 (J)who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep, we will live together with Him. 11 Therefore, [b]encourage one another and (K)build one another up, just as you also are doing.
