Ephesians 2:4-13

4but GodG2316, beingG1510 richG4145 in mercyG1656, for his greatG4183 loveG26 wherewith he lovedG25 us, 5evenG2532 when we wereG1510 deadG3498 through our trespassesG3900, made us aliveG4806 together with ChristG5547 (by graceG5485 have ye beenG1510 savedG4982), 6and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenlyG2032 places, in ChristG5547 JesusG2424: 7that in the agesG165 to comeG1904 he might showG1731 the exceeding richesG4149 of his graceG5485 in kindnessG5544 toward us in ChristG5547 JesusG2424: 8for by graceG5485 have ye beenG1510 savedG4982 through faithG4102; and that not of yourselvesG4771, it isG1510 the giftG1435 of GodG2316; 9not of worksG2041, that no man should glory. 10For we areG1510 his workmanship, created in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 for goodG18 worksG2041, which GodG2316 afore prepared that we should walkG4043 in them.

11Wherefore rememberG3421, that onceG4218 ye, the GentilesG1484 in the fleshG4561, who are called UncircumcisionG203 by that which is called CircumcisionG4061, in the fleshG4561, made by handsG5499; 12that ye wereG1510 at that timeG2540 separate from ChristG5547, alienated from the commonwealth of IsraelG2474, and strangersG3581 from the covenantsG1242 of the promiseG1860, having no hopeG1680 and without God in the worldG2889. 13But nowG1161 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ye that onceG4218 wereG1510 farG3112 off areG1510 made nigh in the bloodG129 of ChristG5547.
