Blessed be God the father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which hath blessed us with all manner of spiritual blessings in heavenly things by Christ,

In whom also ye - after that ye heard the word of truth, I mean the gospel of your salvation wherein ye believed - were sealed with the holy spirit of promise,

By whom we have redemption through his blood, that is to say, even the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace,

according as he had chosen us in him through love, before the foundation of the world was laid, that we should be saints, and without blame before him, through love.

And hath put all things under his feet, and hath made him above all things, the head of the congregation:

which grace he shed on us abundantly in all wisdom, and prudence.

in whom we are made heirs, and were thereto predestinate according to the purpose of him which worketh all things after the purpose of his own will:

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God. To the saints which are at Ephesus, and to them which believe on Jesus Christ.

that we should be unto the praise of his glory, which before believed in Christ.

that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the father of glory, might give unto you the spirit of wisdom, and open to you the knowledge of himself,

which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead and set him on his righthand in heavenly things,

And ordained us before unto himself that we should be chosen before, through Jesus Christ, to be heirs unto himself according to the pleasure of his will,

Wherefore even I - after that I heard of the faith which ye have in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints -

and lighten the eyes of your minds, that ye might know what thing that hope is, whereunto he hath called you, and what the riches of his glorious inheritance is upon the saints,

to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherewith he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

which is his body, and fullness of him, that filleth all in all things.

the same in himself to have it declared when the time were full come: that all things, both the things which are in heaven, and also the things which are in earth, should be gathered together, even in Christ. That is to say, in him

And hath opened unto us the mystery of his will according to his pleasure, and purposed

and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us ward, which believe according to the working of that his mighty power,

Grace be with you and peace from God our father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

above all rule, power, and might, and domination, and above all names that are named, not in this world only, but also in the world to come.

which is the earnest of our inheritance, to redeem the possession purchased, and that unto the laud of his glory.

cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
