⁵ We are destroying arguments and all ^(A)arrogance raised against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the ^(B)obedience of Christ,

The Armor of God

¹⁰ Finally, ^(A)be strong in the Lord and in ^(B)the strength of His might. ^11 (C)Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the ^(D)schemes of the devil. ¹² For our ^(E)struggle is not against ^[a](F)flesh and blood, but ^(G)against the rulers, against the powers, against the ^(H)world forces of this ^(I)darkness, against the ^(J)spiritual forces of wickedness in ^(K)the heavenly places. ¹³ Therefore, take up ^(L)the full armor of God, so that you will be able to ^(M)resist on ^(N)the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. ¹⁴ Stand firm therefore, ^(O)having belted your waist with truth, and having ^(P)put on the breastplate of righteousness, ¹⁵ and having ^(Q)strapped on your feet the preparation of the gospel of peace; ^16 [b]in addition to all, taking up the ^(R)shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the ^(S)flaming arrows of ^(T)the evil one. ¹⁷ And take ^(U)the helmet of salvation and the ^(V)sword of the Spirit, which is ^(W)the word of God.

^18 [c]With every ^(X)prayer and request, ^[d](Y)pray at all times ^(Z)in the Spirit, and with this in view, ^[e](AA)be alert with all ^(AB)perseverance and every ^(AC)request for all the ^[f]saints,

^7 (A)Submit therefore to God. But ^[a](B)resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
