71In 2Him we have 3redemption 4through His blood, the 5forgiveness of our wrongdoings, according to 6the riches of His grace

8which He 7lavished on 8us. In all wisdom and insight

9He 910made known to us the mystery of His will, 11according to His good pleasure which He 12set forth in Him,

10regarding His plan of 13the fullness of the times, 14to bring all things together in Christ, things 15in the heavens and things on the earth.

1116In Him we also 17have obtained an inheritance, having been 18predestined 19according to the purpose of Him who works all things 20in accordance with the plan of His will,

12to the end that 21we who were the first to hope in the 22Christ would be 23to the praise of His glory.
