^{6 Ref} so, then, we may not sleep as also the others, but watch and be sober,

^{7 Ref} for those sleeping, by night do sleep, and those making themselves drunk, by night are drunken,

^{8 Ref} and we, being of the day -- let us be sober, putting on a breastplate of faith and love, and an helmet -- a hope of salvation,

^{9 Ref} because God did not appoint us to anger, but to the acquiring of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

^{10 Ref} who did die for us, that whether we wake -- whether we sleep -- together with him we may live;

^{6 Ref} So then, let us not take our rest as the others do, but let us be self-controlled and awake.

^{7 Ref} For those who are sleeping do so in the night; and those who are the worse for drink are so in the night;

^{8 Ref} But let us, who are of the day, be serious, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and on our heads, the hope of salvation.

^{9 Ref} For God's purpose for us is not wrath, but salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

^{10 Ref} Who was put to death for us, so that, awake or sleeping, we may have a part in his life.

^{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.
