Ephesians 1:3--3:21

Blessed
<2128>
[be] the God
<2316>
and
<2532>
Father
<3962>
of our
<2257>
Lord
<2962>
Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>_,
who
<3588>
hath blessed
<2127> (5660)
us
<2248>
with
<1722>
all
<3956>
spiritual
<4152>
blessings
<2129>
in
<1722>
heavenly
<2032>
[places] in
<1722>
Christ
<5547>_:
{places: or, things}
According as
<2531>
he hath chosen
<1586> (5668)
us
<2248>
in
<1722>
him
<846>
before
<4253>
the foundation
<2602>
of the world
<2889>_,
that we
<2248>
should be
<1511> (5750)
holy
<40>
and
<2532>
without blame
<299>
before
<2714>
him
<846>
in
<1722>
love
<26>_:
Having predestinated
<4309> (5660)
us
<2248>
unto
<1519>
the adoption of children
<5206>
by
<1223>
Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>
to
<1519>
himself
<846>_,
according
<2596>
to the good pleasure
<2107>
of his
<846>
will
<2307>_,
To
<1519>
the praise
<1868>
of the glory
<1391>
of his
<846>
grace
<5485>_,
wherein
<1722> <3739>
he hath made
<5487> (0)
us
<2248>
accepted
<5487> (5656)
in
<1722>
the beloved
<25> (5772)_.
In
<1722>
whom
<3739>
we have
<2192> (5719)
redemption
<629>
through
<1223>
his
<846>
blood
<129>_,
the forgiveness
<859>
of sins
<3900>_,
according
<2596>
to the riches
<4149>
of his
<846>
grace
<5485>_;
Wherein
<3739>
he hath abounded
<4052> (5656)
toward
<1519>
us
<2248>
in
<1722>
all
<3956>
wisdom
<4678>
and
<2532>
prudence
<5428>_;
Having made known
<1107> (5660)
unto us
<2254>
the mystery
<3466>
of his
<846>
will
<2307>_,
according to
<2596>
his
<846>
good pleasure
<2107>
which
<3739>
he hath purposed
<4388> (5639)
in
<1722>
himself
<846>_:
That in
<1519>
the dispensation
<3622>
of the fulness
<4138>
of times
<2540>
he might gather together in one
<346> (5664)
all things
<3956>
in
<1722>
Christ
<5547>_,
both
<5037>
which
<3588>
are in
<1722>
heaven
<3772>_,
and
<2532>
which
<3588>
are on
<1909>
earth
<1093>_;
[even] in
<1722>
him
<846>_:
{heaven: Gr. the heavens}
In
<1722>
whom
<3739>
also
<2532>
we have obtained an inheritance
<2820> (5681)_,
being predestinated
<4309> (5685)
according to
<2596>
the purpose
<4286>
of him who worketh
<1754> (5723)
all things
<3956>
after
<2596>
the counsel
<1012>
of his own
<846>
will
<2307>_:
That
<1519>
we
<2248>
should be
<1511> (5750)
to
<1519>
the praise
<1868>
of his
<846>
glory
<1391>_,
who
<3588>
first trusted
<4276> (5761)
in
<1722>
Christ
<5547>_.
{trusted: or, hoped}
In
<1722>
whom
<3739>
ye
<5210>
also
<2532>
[trusted], after that ye heard
<191> (5660)
the word
<3056>
of truth
<225>_,
the gospel
<2098>
of your
<5216>
salvation
<4991>_:
in
<1722>
whom
<3739>
also
<2532>
after that ye believed
<4100> (5660)_,
ye were sealed with
<4972> (5681)
that holy
<40>
Spirit
<4151>
of promise
<1860>_,
Which
<3739>
is
<2076> (5748)
the earnest
<728>
of our
<2257>
inheritance
<2817>
until
<1519>
the redemption
<629>
of the purchased possession
<4047>_,
unto
<1519>
the praise
<1868>
of his
<846>
glory
<1391>_.
Wherefore
<1223> <5124>
I also
<2504>_,
after I heard
<191> (5660)
of
<2596>
your
<5209>
faith
<4102>
in
<1722>
the Lord
<2962>
Jesus
<2424>_,
and
<2532>
love
<26>
unto
<1519>
all
<3956>
the saints
<40>_,
Cease
<3973> (5731)
not
<3756>
to give thanks
<2168> (5723)
for
<5228>
you
<5216>_,
making
<4160> (5734)
mention
<3417>
of you
<5216>
in
<1909>
my
<3450>
prayers
<4335>_;
That
<2443>
the God
<2316>
of our
<2257>
Lord
<2962>
Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>_,
the Father
<3962>
of glory
<1391>_,
may give
<1325> (5632) (5630)
unto you
<5213>
the spirit
<4151>
of wisdom
<4678>
and
<2532>
revelation
<602>
in
<1722>
the knowledge
<1922>
of him
<846>_:
{in...: or, for the acknowledgement}
The eyes
<3788>
of your
<5216>
understanding
<1271>
being enlightened
<5461> (5772)_;
that
<1519>
ye
<5209>
may know
<1492> (5760)
what
<5101>
is
<2076> (5748)
the hope
<1680>
of his
<846>
calling
<2821>_,
and
<2532>
what
<5101>
the riches
<4149>
of the glory
<1391>
of his
<846>
inheritance
<2817>
in
<1722>
the saints
<40>_,
And
<2532>
what
<5101>
[is] the exceeding
<5235> (5723)
greatness
<3174>
of his
<846>
power
<1411>
to
<1519>
us-ward
<2248>
who
<3588>
believe
<4100> (5723)_,
according to
<2596>
the working
<1753>
of his
<846>
mighty
<2479>
power
<2904>_,
{his mighty power: Gr. the might of his power}
Which
<3739>
he wrought
<1754> (5656)
in
<1722>
Christ
<5547>_,
when he raised
<1453> (5660)
him
<846>
from
<1537>
the dead
<3498>_,
and
<2532>
set
<2523> (5656)
[him] at
<1722>
his own
<846>
right hand
<1188>
in
<1722>
the heavenly
<2032>
[places],
Far above
<5231>
all
<3956>
principality
<746>_,
and
<2532>
power
<1849>_,
and
<2532>
might
<1411>_,
and
<2532>
dominion
<2963>_,
and
<2532>
every
<3956>
name
<3686>
that is named
<3687> (5746)_,
not
<3756>
only
<3440>
in
<1722>
this
<5129>
world
<165>_,
but
<235>
also
<2532>
in
<1722>
that which is to come
<3195> (5723)_:
And
<2532>
hath put
<5293> (5656)
all
<3956>
[things] under
<5259>
his
<846>
feet
<4228>_,
and
<2532>
gave
<1325> (5656)
him
<846>
[to be] the head
<2776>
over
<5228>
all
<3956>
[things] to the church
<1577>_,
Which
<3748>
is
<2076> (5748)
his
<846>
body
<4983>_,
the fulness
<4138>
of him that filleth
<4137> (5734)
all
<3956>
in
<1722>
all
<3956>_.
And
<2532>
you
<5209>
[hath he quickened], who were
<5607> (5752)
dead
<3498>
in trespasses
<3900>
and
<2532>
sins
<266>_;
Wherein
<1722> <3739>
in time past
<4218>
ye walked
<4043> (5656)
according to
<2596>
the course
<165>
of this
<5127>
world
<2889>_,
according to
<2596>
the prince
<758>
of the power
<1849>
of the air
<109>_,
the spirit
<4151>
that now
<3568>
worketh
<1754> (5723)
in
<1722>
the children
<5207>
of disobedience
<543>_:
Among
<1722>
whom
<3739>
also
<2532>
we
<2249>
all
<3956>
had our conversation
<390> (5648)
in times past
<4218>
in
<1722>
the lusts
<1939>
of our
<2257>
flesh
<4561>_,
fulfilling
<4160> (5723)
the desires
<2307>
of the flesh
<4561>
and
<2532>
of the mind
<1271>_;
and
<2532>
were
<2258> (5713)
by nature
<5449>
the children
<5043>
of wrath
<3709>_,
even
<2532>
as
<5613>
others
<3062>_.
{desires: Gr. wills}
But
<1161>
God
<2316>_,
who is
<5607> (5752)
rich
<4145>
in
<1722>
mercy
<1656>_,
for
<1223>
his
<846>
great
<4183>
love
<26>
wherewith
<3739>
he loved
<25> (5656)
us
<2248>_,
Even
<2532>
when we
<2248>
were
<5607> (5752)
dead
<3498>
in sins
<3900>_,
hath quickened us together with
<4806> (5656)
Christ
<5547>_,
(by grace
<5485>
ye are
<2075> (5748)
saved
<4982> (5772);)
{by...: or, by whose grace}
And
<2532>
hath raised [us] up together
<4891> (5656)_,
and
<2532>
made [us] sit together
<4776> (5656)
in
<1722>
heavenly
<2032>
[places] in
<1722>
Christ
<5547>
Jesus
<2424>_:
That
<2443>
in
<1722>
the ages
<165>
to come
<1904> (5740)
he might shew
<1731> (5672)
the exceeding
<5235> (5723)
riches
<4149>
of his
<846>
grace
<5485>
in
<1722>
[his] kindness
<5544>
toward
<1909>
us
<2248>
through
<1722>
Christ
<5547>
Jesus
<2424>_.
For
<1063>
by grace
<5485>
are ye
<2075> (5748)
saved
<4982> (5772)
through
<1223>
faith
<4102>_;
and
<2532>
that
<5124>
not
<3756>
of
<1537>
yourselves
<5216>_:
[it is] the gift
<1435>
of God
<2316>_:
Not
<3756>
of
<1537>
works
<2041>_,
lest
<3363>
any man
<5100>
should boast
<2744> (5667)_.
For
<1063>
we are
<2070> (5748)
his
<846>
workmanship
<4161>_,
created
<2936> (5685)
in
<1722>
Christ
<5547>
Jesus
<2424>
unto
<1909>
good
<18>
works
<2041>_,
which
<3739>
God
<2316>
hath before ordained
<4282> (5656)
that
<2443>
we should walk
<4043> (5661)
in
<1722>
them
<846>_.
{ordained: or, prepared}
Wherefore
<1352>
remember
<3421> (5720)_,
that
<3754>
ye
<5210>
[being] in time past
<4218>
Gentiles
<1484>
in
<1722>
the flesh
<4561>_,
who
<3588>
are called
<3004> (5746)
Uncircumcision
<203>
by
<5259>
that which
<3588>
is called
<3004> (5746)
the Circumcision
<4061>
in
<1722>
the flesh
<4561>
made by hands
<5499>_;
That
<3754>
at
<1722>
that
<1565>
time
<2540>
ye were
<2258> (5713)
without
<5565>
Christ
<5547>_,
being aliens
<526> (5772)
from the commonwealth
<4174>
of Israel
<2474>_,
and
<2532>
strangers
<3581>
from the covenants
<1242>
of promise
<1860>_,
having
<2192> (5723)
no
<3361>
hope
<1680>_,
and
<2532>
without God
<112>
in
<1722>
the world
<2889>_:
But
<1161>
now
<3570>
in
<1722>
Christ
<5547>
Jesus
<2424>
ye
<5210>
who
<3588>
sometimes
<4218>
were
<5607> (5752)
far off
<3112>
are made
<1096> (5675)
nigh
<1451>
by
<1722>
the blood
<129>
of Christ
<5547>_.
For
<1063>
he
<846>
is
<2076> (5748)
our
<2257>
peace
<1515>_,
who
<3588>
hath made
<4160> (5660)
both
<297>
one
<1520>_,
and
<2532>
hath broken down
<3089> (5660)
the middle wall
<3320>
of partition
<5418>
[between us];
Having abolished
<2673> (5660)
in
<1722>
his
<846>
flesh
<4561>
the enmity
<2189>_,
[even] the law
<3551>
of commandments
<1785>
[contained] in
<1722>
ordinances
<1378>_;
for to
<2443>
make
<2936> (5661)
in
<1722>
himself
<1438>
of twain
<1417>
one
<1519> <1520>
new
<2537>
man
<444>_,
[so] making
<4160> (5723)
peace
<1515>_;
And
<2532>
that he might reconcile
<604> (5661)
both
<297>
unto God
<2316>
in
<1722>
one
<1520>
body
<4983>
by
<1223>
the cross
<4716>_,
having slain
<615> (5660)
the enmity
<2189>
thereby
<1722> <846>_:
{thereby: or, in himself}
And
<2532>
came
<2064> (5631)
and preached
<2097> (5668)
peace
<1515>
to you
<5213>
which
<3588>
were afar off
<3112>_,
and
<2532>
to them that were nigh
<1451>_.
For
<3754>
through
<1223>
him
<846>
we
<2192> (0)
both
<297>
have
<2192> (5719)
access
<4318>
by
<1722>
one
<1520>
Spirit
<4151>
unto
<4314>
the Father
<3962>_.
Now
<3767>
therefore
<686>
ye are
<2075> (5748)
no more
<3765>
strangers
<3581>
and
<2532>
foreigners
<3941>_,
but
<235>
fellowcitizens
<4847>
with the saints
<40>_,
and
<2532>
of the household
<3609>
of God
<2316>_;
And are built
<2026> (5685)
upon
<1909>
the foundation
<2310>
of the apostles
<652>
and
<2532>
prophets
<4396>_,
Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>
himself
<846>
being
<5607> (5752)
the chief corner
<204>
[stone];
In
<1722>
whom
<3739>
all
<3956>
the building
<3619>
fitly framed together
<4883> (5746)
groweth
<837> (5719)
unto
<1519>
an holy
<40>
temple
<3485>
in
<1722>
the Lord
<2962>_:
In
<1722>
whom
<3739>
ye
<5210>
also
<2532>
are builded together
<4925> (5743)
for
<1519>
an habitation
<2732>
of God
<2316>
through
<1722>
the Spirit
<4151>_.
For this
<5127>
cause
<5484>
I
<1473>
Paul
<3972>_,
the prisoner
<1198>
of Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>
for
<5228>
you
<5216>
Gentiles
<1484>_,
If
<1489>
ye have heard
<191> (5656)
of the dispensation
<3622>
of the grace
<5485>
of God
<2316>
which
<3588>
is given
<1325> (5685)
me
<3427>
to
<1519>
you-ward
<5209>_:
How that
<3754>
by
<2596>
revelation
<602>
he made known
<1107> (5656)
unto me
<3427>
the mystery
<3466>_;
(as
<2531>
I wrote afore
<4270> (5656)
in
<1722>
few words
<3641>_,
{afore...: or, a little before}
Whereby
<4314> <3739>_,
when ye read
<314> (5723)_,
ye may
<1410> (5736)
understand
<3539> (5658)
my
<3450>
knowledge
<4907>
in
<1722>
the mystery
<3466>
of Christ
<5547>)
Which
<3739>
in
<1722>
other
<2087>
ages
<1074>
was
<1107> (0)
not
<3756>
made known
<1107> (5681)
unto the sons
<5207>
of men
<444>_,
as
<5613>
it is
<601> (0)
now
<3568>
revealed
<601> (5681)
unto his
<846>
holy
<40>
apostles
<652>
and
<2532>
prophets
<4396>
by
<1722>
the Spirit
<4151>_;
That the Gentiles
<1484>
should be
<1511> (5750)
fellowheirs
<4789>_,
and
<2532>
of the same body
<4954>_,
and
<2532>
partakers
<4830>
of his
<846>
promise
<1860>
in
<1722>
Christ
<5547>
by
<1223>
the gospel
<2098>_:
Whereof
<3739>
I was made
<1096> (5633)
a minister
<1249>_,
according
<2596>
to the gift
<1431>
of the grace
<5485>
of God
<2316>
given
<1325> (5685)
unto me
<3427>
by
<2596>
the effectual working
<1753>
of his
<846>
power
<1411>_.
Unto me
<1698>_,
who am less than the least
<1647>
of all
<3956>
saints
<40>_,
is
<1325> (0)
this
<3778>
grace
<5485>
given
<1325> (5681)_,
that I should preach
<2097> (5670)
among
<1722>
the Gentiles
<1484>
the unsearchable
<421>
riches
<4149>
of Christ
<5547>_;
And
<2532>
to make
<5461> (0)
all
<3956>
[men] see
<5461> (5658)
what
<5101>
[is] the fellowship
<2842>
of the mystery
<3466>_,
which
<3588>
from
<575>
the beginning of the world
<165>
hath been hid
<613> (5772)
in
<1722>
God
<2316>_,
who
<3588>
created
<2936> (5660)
all things
<3956>
by
<1223>
Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>_:
To the intent that
<2443>
now
<3568>
unto the principalities
<746>
and
<2532>
powers
<1849>
in
<1722>
heavenly
<2032>
[places] might be known
<1107> (5686)
by
<1223>
the church
<1577>
the manifold
<4182>
wisdom
<4678>
of God
<2316>_,
According to
<2596>
the eternal
<165>
purpose
<4286>
which
<3739>
he purposed
<4160> (5656)
in
<1722>
Christ
<5547>
Jesus
<2424>
our
<2257>
Lord
<2962>_:
In
<1722>
whom
<3739>
we have
<2192> (5719)
boldness
<3954>
and
<2532>
access
<4318>
with
<1722>
confidence
<4006>
by
<1223>
the faith
<4102>
of him
<846>_.
Wherefore
<1352>
I desire
<154> (5731)
that ye faint
<1573> (5721)
not
<3361>
at
<1722>
my
<3450>
tribulations
<2347>
for
<5228>
you
<5216>_,
which
<3748>
is
<2076> (5748)
your
<5216>
glory
<1391>_.
For this
<5127>
cause
<5484>
I bow
<2578> (5719)
my
<3450>
knees
<1119>
unto
<4314>
the Father
<3962>
of our
<2257>
Lord
<2962>
Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>_,
Of
<1537>
whom
<3739>
the whole
<3956>
family
<3965>
in
<1722>
heaven
<3772>
and
<2532>
earth
<1909> <1093>
is named
<3687> (5743)_,
That
<2443>
he would grant
<1325> (5632) (5630)
you
<5213>_,
according to
<2596>
the riches
<4149>
of his
<846>
glory
<1391>_,
to be strengthened
<2901> (5683)
with might
<1411>
by
<1223>
his
<846>
Spirit
<4151>
in
<1519>
the inner
<2080>
man
<444>_;
That Christ
<5547>
may dwell
<2730> (5658)
in
<1722>
your
<5216>
hearts
<2588>
by
<1223>
faith
<4102>_;
that
<2443>
ye, being rooted
<4492> (5772)
and
<2532>
grounded
<2311> (5772)
in
<1722>
love
<26>_,
May be able
<1840> (5661)
to comprehend
<2638> (5641)
with
<4862>
all
<3956>
saints
<40>
what
<5101>
[is] the breadth
<4114>_,
and
<2532>
length
<3372>_,
and
<2532>
depth
<899>_,
and
<2532>
height
<5311>_;
And
<5037>
to know
<1097> (5629)
the love
<26>
of Christ
<5547>_,
which passeth
<5235> (5723)
knowledge
<1108>_,
that
<2443>
ye might be filled
<4137> (5686)
with
<1519>
all
<3956>
the fulness
<4138>
of God
<2316>_.
Now
<1161>
unto him that is able
<1410> (5740)
to do
<4160> (5658)
exceeding
<5228>
abundantly
<1537> <4053>
above
<5228>
all
<3956>
that
<3739>
we ask
<154> (5731)
or
<2228>
think
<3539> (5719)_,
according to
<2596>
the power
<1411>
that worketh
<1754> (5734)
in
<1722>
us
<2254>_,
Unto him
<846>
[be] glory
<1391>
in
<1722>
the church
<1577>
by
<1722>
Christ
<5547>
Jesus
<2424>
throughout
<1519>
all
<3956>
ages
<1074>_,
world
<165>
without end
<165>_.
Amen
<281>_.
