ወደ ኤፌሶን ሰዎች 6:13–17 (አማ54)
ስለዚህ በክፉው ቀን ለመቃወም፥ ሁሉንም ፈጽማችሁ ለመቆም እንድትችሉ የእግዚአብሔርን ዕቃ ጦር ሁሉ አንሡ። – እንግዲህ ወገባችሁን በእውነት ታጥቃችሁ፥ የጽድቅንም ጥሩር ለብሳችሁ፥ በሰላም ወንጌልም በመዘጋጀት እግሮቻችሁ ተጫምተው ቁሙ፤ በሁሉም ላይ ጨምራችሁ የሚንበለበሉትን የክፉውን ፍላጻዎች ሁሉ ልታጠፉ የምትችሉበትን የእምነትን ጋሻ አንሡ፤ የመዳንንም ራስ ቁር የመንፈስንም ሰይፍ ያዙ እርሱም የእግዚአብሔር ቃል ነው።
ትንቢተ ዕንባቆም 3:16–19 (አማ54)
እኔ ሰምቻለሁ፥ ልቤም ደነገጠብኝ፤ ከድምፁ የተነሣ ከንፈሮቼ ተንቀጠቀጡ፤ መንቀጥቀጥ ወደ አጥንቶቼ ውስጥ ገባ፤ በስፍራዬ ሆኜ ተናወጥሁ፤ በሚያስጨንቁን ሕዝብ ላይ እስኪመጣ ድረስ የመከራን ቀን ዝም ብዬ እጠብቃለሁ። ምንም እንኳ በለስም ባታፈራ፥ በወይንም ሐረግ ፍሬ ባይገኝ፥ የወይራ ሥራ ቢጐድል፥ እርሾችም መብልን ባይሰጡ፥ በጎች ከበረቱ ቢጠፉ፥ ላሞችም በጋጡ ውስጥ ባይገኙ፥ እኔ ግን በእግዚአብሔር ደስ ይለኛል፤ በመድኃኒቴ አምላክ ሐሤት አደርጋለሁ። ጌታ እግዚአብሔር ኃይሌ ነው፤ እግሮቼን እንደ ዋላ እግሮች ያደርጋል፤ በከፍታዎችም ላይ ያስሄደኛል።
Ephesians 6:13–17 (ESV)
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God,
Habakkuk 3:16–19 (ESV)
hear, and my body trembles; my lips quiver at the sound; rottenness enters into my bones; my legs tremble beneath me. Yet I will quietly wait for the day of trouble to come upon people who invade us. Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD; I will take joy in the God of my salvation. GOD, the Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet like the deer’s; he makes me tread on my high places. To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments.
