⁸ Be serious and keep watch; the Evil One, who is against you, goes about like a lion with open mouth in search of food;

⁹ Do not give way to him but be strong in your faith, in the knowledge that your brothers who are in the world undergo the same troubles.

¹⁰ And after you have undergone pain for a little time, the God of all grace who has given you a part in his eternal glory through Christ Jesus, will himself give you strength and support, and make you complete in every good thing;

¹⁹ So they will see the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the east: for he will come like a rushing stream, forced on by a wind of the Lord.

¹ And getting the twelve together, he gave them power and authority over all evil spirits and over diseases, to make them well.

¹⁹ I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatever is fixed by you on earth will be fixed in heaven: and whatever you make free on earth will be made free in heaven.

⁸ The sinner is a child of the Evil One; for the Evil One has been a sinner from the first. And the Son of God was seen on earth so that he might put an end to the works of the Evil One.

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.

³³ But he, turning about, and seeing his disciples, said sharply to Peter, Get out of my way, Satan: for your mind is not on the things of God, but on the things of men.

⁴ (For the arms with which we are fighting are not those of the flesh, but are strong before God for the destruction of high places);

⁵ Putting an end to reasonings, and every high thing which is lifted up against the knowledge of God, and causing every thought to come under the authority of Christ;

⁶ Being ready to give punishment to whatever is against his authority, after you have made it clear that you are completely under his control.

¹⁷ And the seventy came back with joy, saying, Lord, even the evil spirits are under our power in your name.

¹⁹ See, I have given you power to put your feet on snakes and evil beasts, and over all the strength of him who is against you: and nothing will do you damage.

⁴ You are of God, my little children, and you have overcome them because he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

¹ And he got together his twelve disciples and gave them the power of driving out unclean spirits, and of making well all sorts of disease and pain.

²⁷ And do not give way to the Evil One.
