Behold, all those who are angry with you shall be put to shame and confounded; they shall be as nothing, and those who contend with you shall perish. Thou shalt seek them that contend with thee, and shalt not find them: they shall be as nothing, and as a thing that is not, they that contend with thee. For I the LORD am thy God, who upholdeth thee by thy right hand, and saith unto thee, Fear not, I will help thee.

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace. Above all, take up the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
