Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, to the saints (in Ephesus) who are faithful in Christ Jesus:

having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,

in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,

even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

for by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,

and might reconcile them both in one body to God through the cross, by which he put to death their enmity.

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

that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,

to the intent that now through the church the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places,

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

that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inward man;

that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in all.

from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through that which every joint supplies, according to the proper working of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in love.
