Paul, sent of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the holy ones being in Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:

Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ,

Praised be God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, he having praised us in every spiritual praise in heavenly things in Christ:

In whom ye also, having heard the word of truth, the good news of your salvation: in whom also having believed, ye were sealed by the holy Spirit of solemn promise,

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, might give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in his knowledge:

But God, being rich in mercy, by his much love which he loved us,

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and this not of you: the gift of God:

For we are his work, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.,

That ye were in that time without Christy alienated from the citizenship of Israel, and foreigners from the covenants of solemn promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

And that he might reconcile anew both in one body to God by the cross, having slain the eninity in it:

And having come, he announced good news, peace to you afar off, and to those near.

Wherefore then are ye no more foreigners and sojourners, but fellow-citizens of the holy, and the household of God;

In whom also ye are builded together for the dwelling of God in the Spirit.

If ye have heard of the distribution of the grace of God given to me for you:

For the nations to be co-heirs, and united in one body, and, participators of his solemn promise in Christ by the good news:

Of which I Became a servant, according to the gift of the grace of God given to me according to the energy of his power

To me, the least of all the holy ones, was this grace given, to announce the good news in the nations, the untraceable riches of Christ.

And to enlighten all what the distribution of the mystery, concealed from times immemorial in God, having created all things by Jesus Christ:

That it might now be made known to beginnings and powers in the heavenlies by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

To know also the love of Christ, surpassing knowledge, that ye might be filled in all the fulness of God.

One God and Father of all, who over all, and through all, and in you all.

And truly he gave the sent; and the prophets; and the bearers of good tidings; and the shepherds, and the teachers;

Until we all arrive to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to the perfect man, to the measure of age of the filling up of Christ.

Being darkened in understanding, alienated from the life of God by ignorance being in them, by the hardness of their heart;

And to put on the new man, created according to God in justice and sanctity of truth.

He stealing let him steal no more: and rather let him be wearied from fatigue, working good with the hands, that he have to impart to him having need.

Let not any foul word go out of your mouth, but if any good to the building of necessity, that it might give grace to them hearing.

And grieve ye not the Holy Spirit of God in which ye were sealed to the day of redemption.

And be ye kind one to another, having good bowels, favoring each other, as also God in Christ Jesus favored you.

Be ye therefore imitators of God, as dearly beloved children;

And walk ye in love, as also Christ loved us, and gave himself for us a gift and sacrifice to God for a smell of sweet odor.

For this ye are knowing, that every fornicator, or unclean, or covetous person, who is an idolater, has no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

Let none lead you astray with vain words: for by these things comes the anger of God upon the sons of disobedience.

Giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father;

Yielding obedience to one another in the fear of God.

Not with eye-service, as menpleasers; but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the soul:

Knowing that whatever good each might do, this he shall receive from the Lord, whether a servant or free.

Put on the complete armor of God, for you to be able to stand against the artifices of the accuser.

For this take up the complete armor of God, that ye might be able to withstand in the evil day, and having effected all things, to stand.

And fastened under the feet in preparation of the good news of peace;

And take ye the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

And for me, that the word might be given me, in the opening of my mouth in freedom of speech, to make known the mystery of the good news,

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