1 Thessalonians 5:2

The Day of the Lord

1 But concerning ^athe times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.

2 For you yourselves know perfectly that ^athe day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.

3 For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then ^asudden destruction comes upon them, ^bas labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.

4 ^aBut you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.

5 You are all ^asons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.

6 ^aTherefore let us not sleep, as others do, but ^blet us watch and be sober.

7 For ^athose who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk ^bare drunk at night.

8 But let us who are of the day be sober, ^aputting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.

9 For ^aGod did not appoint us to wrath, ^bbut to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
