New Testament

1 Thessalonians 5:6-13 Webster Bible Translation (WBT)

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

7. For they that sleep, sleep in the night; and they that are drunken, are drunken in the night.

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

9. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

10. Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

11. Wherefore, comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

12. And we beseech you, brethren, to know them who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;

13. And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves.
