1 Peter 5:8-11
International Standard Version
8 Be clear-minded and alert. Your opponent, the Devil, is prowling around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him and be firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering. 10 After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you by the Messiah[a] Jesus[b] to his eternal glory, will restore you, establish you, strengthen you, and support you. 11 Power belongs[c] to him forever and ever! Amen.
