¹⁰ He arose and attacked the Philistines until his hand was ^(A)weary, and his hand stuck to the sword. The Lord brought about a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to ^(B)plunder.

⁵ For he took his ^(A)life in his hands and ^(B)killed the Philistine, and ^(C)the Lord brought about a great deliverance for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced. ^(D)Why then will you ^(E)sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?”

¹³ But Saul said, ^(A)“Not a man shall be put to death this day, for today ^(B)the Lord has accomplished salvation in Israel.”

The Whole Armor of God

¹⁰ Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. ^11 (A)Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the ^[a]wiles of the devil. ¹² For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against ^(B)principalities, against powers, against ^(C)the rulers of ^[b]the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. ^13 (D)Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand ^(E)in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

¹⁴ Stand therefore, ^(F)having girded your waist with truth, ^(G)having put on the breastplate of righteousness, ^15 (H)and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; ¹⁶ above all, taking ^(I)the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. ¹⁷ And ^(J)take the helmet of salvation, and ^(K)the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; ^18 (L)praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, ^(M)being watchful to this end with all perseverance and ^(N)supplication for all the saints—

^5 (A)For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ^(B)ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake.
