As he hath chosen us through him, before the foundation of the world, that we might be holy and blameless before him in love,

In him through whom we also have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him that worketh all things after the counsel of his own will,

That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, through the knowledge of him.

Which he wrought in Christ, raising him from the dead; and he hath made him sit at his own right-hand in heavenly places,

And he hath put all things under his feet, and hath given him to be head over all things to the church,

Which is his body; who is the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

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

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

Now to him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

To him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus, throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, who is the head, even Christ:

But ye have not so learned Christ; Since ye have heard him,

and been taught by him, (as the truth is in Jesus) To put off,

Let him that stole, steal no more; but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

And ye masters, do the same things to them, forbearing threatning, knowing that your master is in heaven, and there is no respect of persons with him.
