For all of you are sons of light and sons of daytime; we are not of nighttime, nor of darkness.
Therefore, let us not sleep, as the rest do. Instead, we should be vigilant and sober.

For God has not appointed us for wrath, but for the acquisition of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
who died for us, so that, whether we watch, or whether we sleep, we may live in union with him.
Because of this, console one another and build up one another, just as you are doing.
