Ephesians 6:10-20

Common English Bible w/ Apocrypha CEBA

10 Finally, be strengthened by the Lord and his powerful strength.

11 Put on God's armor so that you can make a stand against the tricks of the devil.

12 We aren't fighting against human enemies but against rulers, authorities, forces of cosmic darkness, and spiritual powers of evil in the heavens.

13 Therefore, pick up the full armor of God so that you can stand your ground on the evil day and after you have done everything possible to still stand.

14 So stand with the belt of truth around your waist, justice as your breastplate,

15 and put shoes on your feet so that you are ready to spread the good news of peace.

16 Above all, carry the shield of faith so that you can extinguish the flaming arrows of the evil one.

17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is God's word.

18 Offer prayers and petitions in the Spirit all the time. Stay alert by hanging in there and praying for all believers.

19 As for me, pray that when I open my mouth, I'll get a message that confidently makes this secret plan of the gospel known.

20 I'm an ambassador in chains for the sake of the gospel. Pray so that the Lord will give me the confidence to say what I have to say.

New International Version NIV

10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.

11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.

14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,

15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.

16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.

17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

19 Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel,

20 for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.
