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

⁷ for those sleeping, by night do sleep, and those making themselves drunk, by night are drunken,

¹¹ And this, knowing the time, that for us, the hour already `is' to be aroused out of sleep, for now nearer `is' our salvation than when we did believe;

¹² the night did advance, and the day came nigh; let us lay aside, therefore, the works of the darkness, and let us put on the armour of the light;

¹³ as in day-time, let us walk becomingly; not in revellings and drunkennesses, not in chamberings and lasciviousnesses, not in strife and emulation;

¹⁴ but put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and for the flesh take no forethought -- for desires.

⁴⁸ `And, if that evil servant may say in his heart, My Lord doth delay to come,

⁴⁹ and may begin to beat the fellow-servants, and to eat and to drink with the drunken,

⁵⁰ the lord of that servant will arrive in a day when he doth not expect, and in an hour of which he doth not know,

² I am sleeping, but my heart waketh: The sound of my beloved knocking! `Open to me, my sister, my friend, My dove, my perfect one, For my head is filled `with' dew, My locks `with' drops of the night.'

³⁴ And thy poverty hath come `as' a traveller, And thy want as an armed man!

⁹ Till when, O slothful one, dost thou lie? When dost thou arise from thy sleep?

¹⁰ A little sleep, a little slumber, A little clasping of the hands to rest,

¹¹ And thy poverty hath come as a traveller, And thy want as an armed man.
