PAUL, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, to the saints in [Ephesus] and 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 has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly [worlds] in Christ,

having predestinated us in love to an adoption through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

Therefore, I also, having heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and love to all the saints,

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

and raised us up and seated us together with Christ Jesus in the heavenly worlds,

that he might show in the ages to come the transcendent riches of his grace in goodness to us by Jesus Christ.

for we are his creation, created in Christ Jesus for good works, in which God before appointed that we should walk.

but now, in Christ Jesus you who were formerly far off have been made nigh by the blood of Christ.

being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner-stone,

For this cause I Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ for you gentiles,

that the gentiles are co-heirs and of the same body and joint partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel,

according to the eternal purpose which he made in Christ Jesus our Lord,

to him be the glory in the church in Jesus Christ to all generations, for ever and ever; amen.

if you have indeed heard him, and been instructed by him as the truth is in Jesus,

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

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

The grace be with all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with constancy.
