³⁶ watch ye, then, in every season, praying that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that are about to come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.'

⁸ Be sober, vigilant, because your opponent the devil, as a roaring lion, doth walk about, seeking whom he may swallow up,

²⁸ And now, little children, remain in him, that when he may be manifested, we may have boldness, and may not be ashamed before him, in his presence;

¹³ Watch ye, stand in the faith; be men, be strong;

¹ And he spake also a simile to them, that it behoveth `us' always to pray, and not to faint,

¹³ `Watch therefore, for ye have not known the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man doth come.

² pious, and fearing God with all his house, doing also many kind acts to the people, and beseeching God always,

¹³ because of this take ye up the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to resist in the day of the evil, and all things having done -- to stand.

¹⁴ Stand, therefore, having your loins girt about in truth, and having put on the breastplate of the righteousness,

¹⁷ continually pray ye;

⁷ And of all things the end hath come nigh; be sober-minded, then, and watch unto the prayers,

²⁴ And to Him who is able to guard you not stumbling, and to set `you' in the presence of His glory unblemished, in gladness,

³⁷ and what I say to you, I say to all, Watch.'

³³ Take heed, watch and pray, for ye have not known when the time is;

⁴¹ watch, and pray, that ye may not enter into temptation: the spirit indeed is forward, but the flesh weak.'

³⁷ `Happy those servants, whom the lord, having come, shall find watching; verily I say to you, that he will gird himself, and will cause them to recline (at meat), and having come near, will minister to them;

³⁸ and if he may come in the second watch, and in the third watch he may come, and may find `it' so, happy are those servants.

³⁹ `And this know, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief doth come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken through;

⁴⁰ and ye, then, become ye ready, because at the hour ye think not, the Son of Man doth come.'

¹⁸ through all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the Spirit, and in regard to this same, watching in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints --

¹⁹ and in behalf of me, that to me may be given a word in the opening of my mouth, in freedom, to make known the secret of the good news,

⁵ And thou -- watch in all things; suffer evil; do the work of one proclaiming good news; of thy ministration make full assurance,

³⁵ but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the rising again that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage;
