Ephesians 3:1-9

1For thisG3778 reasonG5484 I, PaulG3972, 1the prisonerG1198 of 2ChristG5547 JesusG2424 3for the sakeG5228 of you 4GentilesG1484--

2ifG1487 indeedG1065 you have heardG191 of the 5stewardshipG3622 of God’sG2316 graceG5485 which was givenG1325 to me for you;

36that 7by revelationG602 there was 8madeG1107 knownG1107 to me 9the mysteryG3466, 10as I wroteG4270 beforeG4270 in briefG3641.

411By referring to thisG3739, when you readG314 you canG1410 understandG3539 12my insightG4907 13into the 14mysteryG3466 of ChristG5547,

5whichG3739 in otherG2087 generationsG1074 was not madeG1107 knownG1107 to the sonsG5207 of menG444, as it has nowG3568 been revealedG601 to His holyG40 15apostlesG652 and prophetsG4396 16in the SpiritG4151;

6to be specific, that the GentilesG1484 are 17fellowG4789 heirsG4789 and 18fellowG4954 membersG4954 of the bodyG4954, and 19fellowG4830 partakersG4830 of the promiseG1860 in 20ChristG5547 JesusG2424 throughG1223 the gospelG2098,

721of whichG3739 I was madeG1096 a 22ministerG1249, accordingG2596 to the giftG1431 of 23God’sG2316 graceG5485 which was givenG1325 to me 24accordingG2596 to the workingG1753 of His powerG1411.

8To me, 25the veryG1646 leastG1646 of allG3956 26saintsG40, thisG3778 graceG5485 was givenG1325, to 27preachG2097 to the GentilesG1484 the unfathomableG421 28richesG4149 of ChristG5547,

9and to 29bringG5461 to lightG5461 whatG5101 is the administrationG3622 of the 30mysteryG3466 which for agesG165 has been 31hiddenG613 in GodG2316 32who createdG2936 allG3956 thingsG3956;
