7. For those who sleep, sleep in the night; and those who are drunk are drunk in the night.
8. But let us, since we belong to the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and, for a helmet, the hope of salvation.
9. For God didn’t appoint us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
10. who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
11. Therefore exhort one another, and build each other up, even as you also do.
12. But we beg you, brothers, to know those who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you,
13. and to respect and honor them in love for their work’s sake. Be at peace among yourselves.
