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

which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it was now revealed to His holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit --

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,

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

and to put on the new man, which, according to God, was created in righteousness and kindness of the truth.
