above every principality, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name named, not only in this age, but also in that to come;

in which ye once walked according to the age of this world, according to the ruler of the authority of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience:

For ye are saved by grace, through faith; and this not of yourselves; it is God's gift:

For this reason I Paul, prisoner of the Christ Jesus for you nations,

To me, less than the least of all saints, has this grace been given, to announce among the nations the glad tidings of the unsearchable riches of the Christ,

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

This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye should no longer walk as the rest of the nations walk in the vanity of their mind,

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

For this reason be not foolish, but understanding what is the will of the Lord.

Because of this a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be united to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh.

This mystery is great, but I speak as to Christ, and as to the assembly.

Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is just.

knowing that whatever good each shall do, this he shall receive of the Lord, whether bond or free.

because our struggle is not against blood and flesh, but against principalities, against authorities, against the universal lords of this darkness, against spiritual power of wickedness in the heavenlies.

For this reason take to you the panoply of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having accomplished all things, to stand.

praying at all seasons, with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching unto this very thing with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints;

whom I have sent to you for this very thing, that ye may know of our affairs and that he may encourage your hearts.
