Ephesians 1:16-23
161do not ceaseG3973 givingG2168 thanksG2168 for you, 2while makingG4160 mentionG3417 of you in my prayersG4335;
17that the 3GodG2316 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, 4the FatherG3962 of gloryG1391, may giveG1325 to you a spiritG4151 of 5wisdomG4678 and of 6revelationG602 in the 7knowledgeG1922 of Him.
18I pray that 8the eyesG3788 of your heartG2588 9may be enlightenedG5461, soG1519 that you will knowG3609 whatG5101 is the 10hopeG1680 of His 11callingG2821, whatG5101 are 12the richesG4149 of the gloryG1391 of 13His inheritanceG2817 in 14the 15saintsG40,
19and whatG5101 is the surpassingG5235 greatnessG3174 of His powerG1411 towardG1519 us who believeG4100. 16These are in accordanceG2596 with the workingG1753 of the 17strengthG2904 of His mightG2479
20whichG3739 He broughtG1754 aboutG1754 in ChristG5547, when He 18raisedG1453 Him from the deadG3498 and 19seatedG2523 Him at His rightG1188 handG1188 in 20the heavenlyG2032 places,
21farG5231 aboveG5231 21allG3956 ruleG746 and authorityG1849 and powerG1411 and dominionG2963, and everyG3956 22nameG3686 that is namedG3687, not onlyG3440 in 23thisG3778 ageG165 but alsoG2532 in the one to comeG3195.
22And He 24putG5293 allG3956 thingsG3956 in subjectionG5293 underG5259 His feetG4228, and gaveG1325 Him as 25headG2776 overG5228 allG3956 thingsG3956 to the churchG1577,
23whichG3748 is His 26bodyG4983, the 27fullnessG4138 of Him who 28fillsG4137 29allG3956 in allG3956.
