Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus,

and to the faithful in Christ Jesus, Grace be to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places through Christ,

As he hath chosen us through him, before the foundation of the world, that we might be holy and blameless before him in love,

Having predestinated us to the adoption of sons to himself by Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of his will,

by which he hath freely accepted us through the beloved, By whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins,

That we who first believed in Christ, might be to the praise of his glory.

In whom ye likewise believed, after ye had heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom having believed, ye were also sealed by that Holy Spirit of promise,

And he hath put all things under his feet, and hath given him to be head over all things to the church,

in the desires of the flesh, doing the will of the flesh and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the others.

through his great love wherewith he loved us, Hath quickened us together with Christ, even when we were dead in trespasses, (by grace ye are saved) And hath raised us up together,

For by grace ye are saved through faith; and this not of yourselves:

Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh (who were called the uncircumcision, by that which is called the circumcision made with hands in the flesh) Were at that time without Christ,

But now through Christ Jesus, ye who were once far off are brought nigh by the blood of Christ.

having broken down the middle wall of partition, Having abolished by his flesh the enmity, the law of commandments, through his decrees, that he might make the two one new man in himself, so making peace:

For through him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.

given me to you ward, That by revelation he made known to me the mystery:

By reading which ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ:

Which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it hath now been revealed to the holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit,

That the Gentiles are fellow-heirs, and of the same body, and joint-partakers of his promise by Christ through the gospel,

Of which I have been made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given to me by the effectual working of his power.

And to let all men see, what is the fellowship of the mystery, which was hidden from the beginning of the world by God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

That the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in heavenly places,

By whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in him.

For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

family in heaven and earth is named) That he would give you according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man, That Christ may dwell in your heart by faith:

ye may be able to comprehend with all saints, what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height, And to know the love of Christ which passeth knowledge,

that ye may be filled with all the fulness of God.

To him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus, throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

forbearing one another in love, Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit, by the bond of peace.

That we may be no longer children, fluctuating to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the slight of men, by cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive:

From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted, by that which every joint supplieth according to the effectual working in the measure of every member, maketh increase of the body, to the edifying of itself in love.

Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, by the ignorance that is in them, through the hardness of their hearts:

and been taught by him, (as the truth is in Jesus) To put off,

To be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

Be ye angry, and sin not; let not the sun go down upon your wrath,

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil-speaking be put away from you with all malice.

And be ye kind one to another, tender-hearted; forgiving one another; as God also for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

Be ye therefore followers of God, as beloved children: And walk in love,

But let not fornication, or any uncleanness, or covetousness be even named among you, as becometh saints:

Be ye not therefore partakers with them.

For it is a shame even to speak the things which are done by them in secret.

But all things which are reproved are made manifest by the light; for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.

Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what is the will of the Lord.

And be not drunken with wine,

wherein is excess; but be ye filled with the Spirit, Speaking to each other in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your hearts unto the Lord;

That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle, or any such thing, that it may be holy and unblamable.

Knowing that whatsoever good each man doth, the same shall he receive from the Lord, whether he be a servant or free.

Finally, brethren, be strong through the Lord, and through the power of his might.

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Wherefore take to you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.

which is the word of God, Praying alway by the Spirit with all prayer and supplication, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints,

And for me that utterance may be given me, by the opening my mouth to make known boldly the mystery of the gospel,

Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Grace be with all that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen.
