1 Thessalonians 5:2-8

LEB(i) 2 for you yourselves well know that the day of the Lord is coming in the same way as a thief in the night. 3 Whenever they say "Peace and security," then sudden destruction will overtake them like the birth pains of a pregnant woman*, and they will not possibly escape. 4 But you, brothers, are not in the darkness, so that the day should catch you like a thief, 5 for you are all sons of light and sons of day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. 6 So then, we must not sleep like the rest, but must be on the alert and be self-controlled. 7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, are drunk at night. 8 But because* we are of the day, we must be sober, by* putting on the breastplate of faith and love and as a helmet the hope of salvation,
