Bible in Basic English

15

Be ready with the good news of peace as shoes on your feet;

16

And most of all, using faith as a cover to keep off all the flaming arrows of the Evil One.

17

And take salvation for your head-dress and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

18

With prayers and deep desires, making requests at all times in the Spirit, and keeping watch, with strong purpose, in prayer for all the saints,

19

And for me, that words may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make clear without fear the secret of the good news,

20

For which I am a representative in chains, and that I may say without fear the things which it is right for me to say.

21

But so that you may have knowledge of my business, and how I am, Tychicus, the well-loved brother and tested servant in the Lord, will give you news of all things:

22

Whom I have sent to you for this very purpose, so that you may have knowledge of our position, and that he may give comfort to your hearts.

23

Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

24

Grace be with all those who have true love for our Lord Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 6 — Context

12

For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against authorities and powers, against the world-rulers of this dark night, against the spirits of evil in the heavens.

13

For this reason take up all the arms of God, so that you may be able to be strong in the evil day, and, having done all, to keep your place.

14

Take your place, then, having your body clothed with the true word, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness;

15

Be ready with the good news of peace as shoes on your feet;

16

And most of all, using faith as a cover to keep off all the flaming arrows of the Evil One.

17

And take salvation for your head-dress and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

18

With prayers and deep desires, making requests at all times in the Spirit, and keeping watch, with strong purpose, in prayer for all the saints,

19

And for me, that words may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make clear without fear the secret of the good news,

20

For which I am a representative in chains, and that I may say without fear the things which it is right for me to say.

21

But so that you may have knowledge of my business, and how I am, Tychicus, the well-loved brother and tested servant in the Lord, will give you news of all things:
