Ephesians 1:3-6
31Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in 2the heavenly places in Christ,
4just as 3He chose us in Him before 4the foundation of the world, that we would be 5holy and blameless before 6Him. 7In love
58He 9predestined us to 10adoption as sons and daughters through Jesus Christ to Himself, 11according to the good pleasure of His will,
612to the praise of the glory of His grace, with which He favored us in 13the Beloved.
