14 Stand, therefore,with truth like a belt around your waist,righteousness like armor on your chest,
15 and your feet sandaled with readinessfor the gospel of peace.
16 In every situation take the shield of faith, and with it you will be able to extinguishall the flaming arrows of the evil one.
17 Take the helmet of salvation,and the sword of the Spirit, which is God’s word.
18 Pray at all times in the Spirit with every prayer and request, and stay alert in this with all perseverance and intercession for all the saints.
19 Pray also for me, that the message may be given to me when I open my mouth to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel.
20 For this I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I might be bold enough in Him to speak as I should.
