Ephesians
3
Eph 3:1
For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of
you Gentiles,
Eph 3:2
if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace
of God which was given me toward you;
Eph 3:3
how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote
before in few words,
Eph 3:4
by which, when you read, you can perceive my understanding in the
mystery of Christ;
Eph 3:5
which in other generations was not made known to the children of men,
as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the
Spirit;
Eph 3:6
that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body,
and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good
News,
Eph 3:7
of which I was made a servant, according to the gift of that grace of
God which was given me according to the working of his power.
Eph 3:8
To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach
to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
Eph 3:9
and to make all men see what is the administration of the mystery
which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through
Jesus Christ;
Eph 3:10
to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of
God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the
heavenly places,
Eph 3:11
according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus
our Lord;
Eph 3:12
in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith
in him.
Eph 3:13
Therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you,
which are your glory.
Eph 3:14
For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ,
Eph 3:15
from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,
Eph 3:16
that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that
you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inward
man;
Eph 3:17
that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that
you, being rooted and grounded in love,
Eph 3:18
may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the
breadth and length and height and depth,
Eph 3:19
and to know Christ's love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be
filled with all the fullness of God.
Eph 3:20
Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we
ask or think, according to the power that works in us,
Eph 3:21
to him be the glory in the assembly and in Christ Jesus to all
generations forever and ever. Amen.
