Ephesians 3

1For this cause I PaulG3972, the prisonerG1198 of ChristG5547 JesusG2424 in behalfG5228 of you GentilesG1484,— 2if so be that ye have heardG191 of the dispensation of that graceG5485 of GodG2316 which was givenG1325 me to you-ward; 3how that by revelationG602 was madeG1107 known unto me the mysteryG3466, as I wrote before in fewG3641 words, 4whereby, when ye readG314, ye can perceive my understandingG4907 in the mysteryG3466 of ChristG5547; 5which in otherG2087 generationsG1074 was not madeG1107 known unto the sonsG5207 of menG444, as it hath nowG3568 been revealedG601 unto his holyG40 apostlesG652 and prophetsG4396 in the SpiritG4151; 6to wit, that the GentilesG1484 areG1510 fellow-heirs, and fellow-members of the body, and fellow-partakers of the promiseG1860 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 through the gospelG2098, 7whereof I was made a ministerG1249, accordingG2596 to the giftG1431 of that graceG5485 of GodG2316 which was givenG1325 me accordingG2596 to the workingG1753 of his powerG1411. 8Unto me, who am less than the leastG1646 of all saintsG40, was this graceG5485 givenG1325, to preach unto the GentilesG1484 the unsearchable richesG4149 of ChristG5547; 9and to make all men see what is the dispensation of the mysteryG3466 which for agesG165 hath been hid in GodG2316 who created all thingsG3956; 10to the intent that nowG3568 unto the principalities and the powersG1849 in the heavenlyG2032 places might be madeG1107 known through the churchG1577 the manifold wisdomG4678 of GodG2316, 11accordingG2596 to the eternal purposeG4286 which he purposed in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 our LordG2962: 12in whom we have boldnessG3954 and accessG4318 in confidenceG3954 through our faithG4102 in him. 13Wherefore I askG154 that ye may not faint at my tribulationsG2347 for you, which areG1510 your gloryG1391.

14For this cause I bowG2578 my kneesG1119 unto the FatherG3962, 15from whom every familyG3965 in heavenG3772 and on earthG1093 is named, 16that he would grantG1325 you, accordingG2596 to the richesG4149 of his gloryG1391, that ye may be strengthenedG2901 with powerG1411 through his SpiritG4151 in the inward manG444; 17that ChristG5547 may dwellG2730 in your heartsG2588 through faithG4102; to the end that ye, being rooted and grounded in loveG26, 18may be strong to apprehend with all the saintsG40 what is the breadthG4114 and lengthG3372 and heightG5311 and depthG899, 19and to knowG1097 the loveG26 of ChristG5547 which passeth knowledgeG1108, that ye may be filledG4137 unto all the fulness of GodG2316.

20NowG1161 unto him that is ableG1410 to do exceeding abundantly above all that we askG154 or think, accordingG2596 to the powerG1411 that worketh in us, 21unto him be the gloryG1391 in the churchG1577 and in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 unto all generationsG1074 for ever and ever. AmenG281.
