¹⁵ For these aren't drunken, as you suppose, seeing it is only the third hour of the day{about 9:00 AM}.

¹⁵ Hannah answered, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but I poured out my soul before Yahweh.

³ He went out about the third hour,{Time was measured from sunrise to sunset, so the third hour would be about 9:00 AM.} and saw others standing idle in the marketplace.

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

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

⁷ For those who sleep, sleep in the night, and those who are drunken are drunken in the night.

⁸ 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.
