Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus

001:002

Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ

001:003

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ

001:004

According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love

001:005

Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will

001:006

To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved

001:007

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace

001:008

Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence

001:009

Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself

001:010

That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him

001:011

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

001:012

That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ

001:013

In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise

001:014

Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory

001:015

Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints

001:016

Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers

001:017

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

001:018

The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints

001:019

And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power

001:020

Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places

001:021

Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come

001:022

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

001:023

Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all
