1 Thessalonians 5:9

⁷ For those who sleep, sleep at night; and those who get drunk, get drunk at night.

⁸ But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and the helmet of our hope of salvation.

For God has not appointed us to suffer wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.

¹⁰ He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with Him.

¹¹ Therefore encourage and build one another up, just as you are already doing.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
