- so then let us not sleep as others do, but let us be alert and sober.
- For those who sleep do their sleeping at night, and those who get drunk get drunk at night.
- But since we are of the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet, the hope of salvation.
- For God has not destined us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
- who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep, we will live together with Him.

- So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be alert and self-controlled.
- For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night.
- But since we belong to the day, let us be self-controlled, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet.
- For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.
- He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him.
