6 Therefore, let us not sleep, even as others; but let us watch and be sober.

7 For they who sleep, sleep in the night; and they who get drunk, get drunk in the night.

8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.

9 For God has appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation, through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we may live together, with him.
