Ephesians 6:12-18

New American Standard Bible 1995

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

^18 [c]With all ^(T)prayer and petition ^[d](U)pray at all times ^(V)in the Spirit, and with this in view, ^[e](W)be on the alert with all ^(X)perseverance and ^(Y)petition for all the saints,
