10 No demais, irmãos meus, fortalecei-vos no Senhor e na força do seu poder.

11 Revesti-vos de toda a armadura de Deus, para que possais estar firmes contra as astutas ciladas do diabo.

12 Porque não temos que lutar contra a carne e o sangue, mas, sim, contra os principados, contra as potestades, contra os príncipes das trevas deste século, contra as hostes espirituais da maldade, nos lugares celestiais.

16 Above all having taken up the shield of faith, by which ye will be able to quench all the fiery darts of evil.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God,
