Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you maybe able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm thenwith the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness inplace, and with your feet fitted with readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. Inaddition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flamingarrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is theword of God.
