that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of the glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the recognition of him,

and all things He did put under his feet, and did give him -- head over all things to the assembly,

if, indeed, ye did hear of the dispensation of the grace of God that was given to me in regard to you,

of which I became a ministrant, according to the gift of the grace of God that was given to me, according to the working of His power;

to me -- the less than the least of all the saints -- was given this grace, among the nations to proclaim good news -- the untraceable riches of the Christ,

that He may give to you, according to the riches of His glory, with might to be strengthened through His Spirit, in regard to the inner man,

and to each one of you was given the grace, according to the measure of the gift of Christ,

who, having ceased to feel, themselves did give up to the lasciviousness, for the working of all uncleanness in greediness;

neither give place to the devil;

Let no corrupt word out of your mouth go forth, but what is good unto the needful building up, that it may give grace to the hearers;

and walk in love, as also the Christ did love us, and did give himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odour of a sweet smell,

The husbands! love your own wives, as also the Christ did love the assembly, and did give himself for it,

and in behalf of me, that to me may be given a word in the opening of my mouth, in freedom, to make known the secret of the good news,
