Ephesians 2:14-22
14For He HimselfG846 is 1our peaceG1515, 2who madeG4160 bothG297 groups into oneG1520 and brokeG3089 downG3089 the 3barrierG5418 of the dividingG3320 wallG3320,
154by 5abolishingG2673 in His fleshG4561 the enmityG2189, which is 6the LawG3551 of commandmentsG1785 contained in ordinancesG1378, soG2443 that in HimselfG846 He might 78makeG2936 the twoG1417 into 9oneG1520 newG2537 manG444, thus establishingG4160 10peaceG1515,
16and might 11reconcileG604 them bothG297 in 12oneG1520 bodyG4983 to GodG2316 throughG1223 the crossG4716, 13by it having 14putG615 to deathG615 the enmityG2189.
17And 15He cameG2064 and preachedG2097 16peaceG1515 to you whoG3588 were 17farG3112 awayG3112, and peaceG1515 to thoseG3588 who were 18nearG1451;
18for throughG1223 Him we bothG297 haveG2192 19our accessG4318 in 20oneG1520 SpiritG4151 to 21the FatherG3962.
19SoG686 thenG686 you are noG3765 longerG3765 22strangersG3581 and aliensG3941, but you are 23fellowG4847 citizensG4847 with the 24saintsG40, and are of 25God’sG2316 householdG3609,
20having been 26builtG2026 on 27the foundationG2310 of 28the apostlesG652 and prophetsG4396, 29ChristG5547 JesusG2424 HimselfG846 beingG1510 the 30cornerG204 stone,
2131in whomG3739 the wholeG3956 buildingG3619, being fittedG4883 togetherG4883, is growingG837 into 32a holyG40 33templeG3485 in the LordG2962,
22in whomG3739 you alsoG2532 are being 34builtG4925 togetherG4925 into a 35dwellingG2732 of GodG2316 in the SpiritG4151.
