1 Thessalonians 5:4-7
New International Version
4 But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness(A) so that this day should surprise you like a thief.(B) 5 You are all children of the light(C) and children of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. 6 So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep,(D) but let us be awake(E) and sober.(F) 7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night.(G)
1 Thessalonians 5:4-7
King James Version
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
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 be drunken are drunken in the night.
