Father
<3962>

of our

all
<3956>

spiritual

According as

he hath chosen
<1586> (5668)

us
<2248>

in
<1722>

him
<846>

before
<4253>

the foundation
<2602>

of the world

holy
<40>

and
<2532>

without blame
<299>

before
<2714>

us

unto
<1519>

the adoption of children
<5206>

by
<1223>

will
<2307>_,

1:6

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)_.

1:7

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>_;

1:8

Wherein
<3739>

he hath abounded
<4052> (5656)

toward
<1519>

us
<2248>

in
<1722>

all
<3956>

wisdom
<4678>

and
<2532>

prudence
<5428>_;

1:9

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>_:

1:10

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}

1:11

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>_:

1:12

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}

1:13

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>_,

1:14

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>_.

1:15

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>_,

1:16

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>_;

1:17

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}

1:18

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>_,

1:19

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}

1:20

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],

1:21

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)_:

1:22

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>_,

1:23

Which
<3748>

is
<2076> (5748)

his
<846>

body
<4983>_,

the fulness
<4138>

of him that filleth
<4137> (5734)

all
<3956>

in
<1722>

all
<3956>_.

2:1

And
<2532>

you
<5209>

[hath he quickened], who were
<5607> (5752)

dead
<3498>

in trespasses
<3900>

and
<2532>

sins
<266>_;

2:2

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>_:

2:3

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}

2:4

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>_,

2:5

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}

2:6

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>_:

2:7

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>_.

2:8

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>_:

2:9

Not
<3756>

of
<1537>

works
<2041>_,

lest
<3363>

any man
<5100>

should boast
<2744> (5667)_.

2:10

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}

2:11

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>_;

2:12

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>_:

2:13

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>_.

2:14

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];

2:15

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>_;

2:16

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}

2:17

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>_.

2:18

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>_.

2:19

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>_;

2:20

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];

2:21

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>_:

2:22

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>_.

3:1

For this
<5127>

cause
<5484>

I
<1473>

Paul
<3972>_,

the prisoner
<1198>

of Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>

for
<5228>

you
<5216>

Gentiles
<1484>_,

3:2

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>_:

3:3

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}

3:4

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>)

3:5

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>_;

3:6

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>_:

3:7

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>_.

3:8

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>_;

3:9

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>_:

3:10

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>_,

3:11

According to
<2596>

the eternal
<165>

purpose
<4286>

which
<3739>

he purposed
<4160> (5656)

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>

Jesus
<2424>

our
<2257>

Lord
<2962>_:

3:12

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>_.

3:13

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>_.

3:14

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>_,

3:15

Of
<1537>

whom
<3739>

the whole
<3956>

family
<3965>

in
<1722>

heaven
<3772>

and
<2532>

earth
<1909> <1093>

is named
<3687> (5743)_,

3:16

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>_;

3:17

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>_,

3:18

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>_;

3:19

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>_.

3:20

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>_,

3:21

Unto him
<846>

[be] glory
<1391>

in
<1722>

the church
<1577>

by
<1722>

Christ
<5547>

Jesus
<2424>

throughout
<1519>

all

ages
<1074>_,

world
<165>

without end
<165>_.

Amen
