Romans 13:11-14
New American Standard Bible
11 Do this, knowing the time, that it is (A)already the hour for you to (B)awaken from sleep; for now [a]salvation is nearer to us than when we first believed. 12 (C)The night is almost gone, and (D)the day is near. Therefore let’s rid ourselves of (E)the deeds of darkness and put on (F)the armor of light. 13 Let’s [b](G)behave properly as in the day, (H)not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual promiscuity and debauchery, not in strife and jealousy. 14 But (I)put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh (J)in regard to its lusts.

Put On Christ
11 Besides this, since you know the time, it is already the hour(A) for you[a] to wake up from sleep,(B) because now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.(C) 12 The night is nearly over, and the day is near;(D) so let us discard the deeds of darkness(E) and put on the armor of light.(F) 13 Let us walk with decency,(G) as in the daytime: not in carousing and drunkenness;(H) not in sexual impurity and promiscuity; not in quarreling and jealousy. 14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ,(I) and make no provision for the flesh to gratify its desires.(J)
