^{4 Ref} But you, brothers, aren't in darkness, that the day should overtake you like a thief.

^{5 Ref} You are all children of light, and children of the day. We don't belong to the night, nor to darkness,

^{6 Ref} so then let's not sleep, as the rest do, but let's watch and be sober.

^{7 Ref} For those who sleep, sleep in the night, and those who are drunken are drunken in the night.

^{8 Ref} But let us, since we belong to the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and, for a helmet, the hope of salvation.

^{9 Ref} For God didn't appoint us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

^{10 Ref} who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

^{4 Ref} But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief:

^{5 Ref} for ye are all sons of light, and sons of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness;

^{6 Ref} so then let us not sleep, as do the rest, but let us watch and be sober.

^{7 Ref} For they that sleep sleep in the night: and they that are drunken are drunken in the night.

^{8 Ref} But let us, since we are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.

^{9 Ref} For God appointed us not into wrath, but unto the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

^{10 Ref} who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
