Ephesians 6:15-23
New American Standard Bible
15 and having (A)strapped on your feet the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 [a]in addition to all, taking up the (B)shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the (C)flaming arrows of (D)the evil one. 17 And take (E)the helmet of salvation and the (F)sword of the Spirit, which is (G)the word of God.
18 [b]With every (H)prayer and request, [c](I)pray at all times (J)in the Spirit, and with this in view, [d](K)be alert with all (L)perseverance and every (M)request for all the [e]saints, 19 and (N)pray in my behalf, that speech may be given to me (O)in the opening of my mouth, to make known with (P)boldness (Q)the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an (R)ambassador (S)in [f]chains; that [g]in proclaiming it I may speak (T)boldly, (U)as I ought to speak.
21 (V)Now, so that you also may know about my circumstances as to [h]what I am doing, (W)Tychicus, (X)the beloved brother and faithful [i]servant in the Lord, will make everything known to you. 22 [j](Y)I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that you may know [k]about us, and that he may (Z)comfort your hearts.
23 (AA)Peace be to the brothers and sisters, and (AB)love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
