Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother”, which is the first commandment. Fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath.
Servants, be obedient to those who according to the flesh are your masters with good will doing service as to the Lord, and not to men. You masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening. Knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven.
Be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.
Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Take up the shield of faith, with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
Put on the armor of God, that you may be able to withstand the devil.
