8: But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.- edit KJV text
8: But let us, who are of the day, be sober, having on the breast plate of faith and charity and, for a helmet, the hope of salvation.— edit Douay text


But let us who are of the day, be sober. Temperate, as men usually are in the day-time.

Putting on the breast-plate of faith and love. This is a favourite comparison of the apostle Paul. See it explained at length "Eph 6:14".


And for an helmet, the hope of salvation. "Eph 6:17".


  • "breast-plate of faith" Isa 59:17
