Ephesians 6:10-20

Common English Bible CEB

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.

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

11 Put on the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For our struggle is not against enemies of blood and flesh, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.

13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to withstand on that evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.

14 Stand therefore, and fasten the belt of truth around your waist, and put on the breastplate of righteousness.

15 As shoes for your feet put on whatever will make you ready to proclaim the gospel of peace.

16 With all of these, take the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench 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 Pray in the Spirit at all times in every prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert and always persevere in supplication for all the saints.

19 Pray also for me, so that when I speak, a message may be given to me to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel,

20 for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it boldly, as I must speak.
