- See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
- Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body.
- Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word.
- So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself.
- For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.
- Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
- And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.
- Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
- Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
- For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
- Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
- Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.
- And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
- Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints.
Behold the proud,
His soul is not upright in him;
But the just shall live by his faith.
