Ephesians

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

And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.

According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power.

That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,

If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:

For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,

In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

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

And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.

And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;

For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
