1 Thessalonians 5:5
Douay-Rheims
For all you are the children of light, and children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
George Leo Haydock
You are the children of light. That is, there is little danger of thieves in the day time, when it is light. Also watch and have arms to defend you, the coat of mail of faith; the helmet of hope: you are under the protection of Christ, who died for you, and for your salvation. See St. Chrysostom, p. 293, &c. (Witham)
