Ephesians 6:13-17

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹³ For this reason, take up all the armor that God supplies. Then you will be able to take a stand during these evil days.^[a] Once you have overcome all obstacles, you will be able to stand your ground.

¹⁴ So then, take your stand! Fasten truth around your waist like a belt. Put on God’s approval as your breastplate. ¹⁵ Put on your shoes so that you are ready to spread the Good News that gives peace. ¹⁶ In addition to all these, take the Christian faith as your shield. With it you can put out all the flaming arrows of the evil one. ¹⁷ Also take salvation as your helmet and God’s word as the sword that the Spirit supplies.
