Ephesians 6:13-20
New King James Version
13 (A)Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand (B)in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, (C)having girded your waist with truth, (D)having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 (E)and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking (F)the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And (G)take the helmet of salvation, and (H)the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 (I)praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, (J)being watchful to this end with all perseverance and (K)supplication for all the saints— 19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, (L)that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which (M)I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
