5. Ephesians 6:11-17 King James Version (KJV)
• 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
• 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the
darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
• 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having
done all, to stand.
• 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
• 15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
• 16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
• 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
6. Ephesians 6:11-17 New International Version (NIV)
11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and
blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the
heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and
after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of
righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up
the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish 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.
