³⁸ For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor ^(A)principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,

²⁸ And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.

⁸ For if we ^(A)live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s.

¹² For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, ^(A)for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day.

¹⁶ For ^(A)by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or ^(B)dominions or ^[a]principalities or ^[b]powers. All things were created ^(C)through Him and for Him.

²² who has gone into heaven and ^(A)is at the right hand of God, ^(B)angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.

⁸ Be ^[a]sober, be ^[b]vigilant; ^[c]because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. ⁹ Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. ¹⁰ But ^[d]may the God of all grace, ^(A)who called ^[e]us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, ^[f]perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

^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.

^15 (A)Having disarmed ^(B)principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.
