¹⁰ Lastly, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his power. ¹¹ Take up God's instruments of war, so that you may be able to keep your position against all the deceits of the Evil One. ¹² For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against authorities and powers, against the world-rulers of this dark night, against the spirits of evil in the heavens. ¹³ For this reason take up all the arms of God, so that you may be able to be strong in the evil day, and, having done all, to keep your place. ¹⁴ Take your place, then, having your body clothed with the true word, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness; ¹⁵ Be ready with the good news of peace as shoes on your feet; ¹⁶ And most of all, using faith as a cover to keep off all the flaming arrows of the Evil One. ¹⁷ And take salvation for your head-dress and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: ¹⁸ With prayers and deep desires, making requests at all times in the Spirit, and keeping watch, with strong purpose, in prayer for all the saints,
