Ephesians 3:13-21
13Therefore I ask 1you not 2to become discouraged about my tribulations 3in your behalf, 4since they are your glory.
14For this reason I 5bend my knees before the Father, 15from whom 6every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, 16that He would grant you, according to 7the riches of His glory, to be 8strengthened with power through His Spirit in 9the inner 10self, 17so that 11Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being 12rooted and 13grounded in love, 18may be able to comprehend with 14all the 15saints what is 16the width and length and height and depth, 19and to know 17the love of Christ which 18surpasses knowledge, that you may be 19filled to all the 20fullness of God.
2021Now to Him who is 22able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, 23according to the power that works within us, 2124to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations 25forever and ever. Amen.
