Romans 13:11-14
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
An Urgent Appeal
11 Besides this, you know what time it is, how it is already the moment for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we became believers;(A) 12 the night is far gone; the day is near. Let us then throw off[a] the works of darkness and put on the armor of light;(B) 13 let us walk decently as in the day, not in reveling and drunkenness, not in illicit sex and licentiousness, not in quarreling and jealousy.(C) 14 Instead, put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires.(D)
