¹ Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:

² Grace [be] to you and peace from God our Father and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.

³ Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly [things] in Christ;

⁴ according as he has chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blemish before him in charity;

⁵ having marked out beforehand [the way] for us to be adopted as sons by Jesus Christ in himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

⁶ to the praise of the glory of his grace, in which he has made us accepted in the beloved;

⁷ in whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins according to the riches of his grace,

⁸ which has over abounded in us in all wisdom and prudence;

⁹ having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he has purposed in himself,

¹⁰ that in the dispensation of the fulfillment of the times he might restore all things by the Christ, both those which are in heaven and those which are on earth,

¹¹ in him in whom likewise we have obtained an inheritance, having had [the way] marked out beforehand according to the purpose of him who works all things after the counsel of his own will,

¹² so that we should be to the praise of his glory, those of us who first trusted in the Christ.

¹³ In whom ye also [trusted], hearing the word of truth, the gospel of your saving health; in whom also after ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of the promise,

¹⁴ which is the earnest of our inheritance unto the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

¹⁵ Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and charity unto all the saints,

¹⁶ cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

¹⁷ 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;

¹⁸ illuminating the eyes of your understanding, that ye may know what is the hope of his calling and what [are] the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints

¹⁹ and what [is] the exceeding greatness of his power in us who believe, by the operation of the power of his strength,

²⁰ which operated in the Christ, raising him from the dead and setting [him] at his own right hand in the heavenly [places],

²¹ far above all principality and power and might and dominion and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come,

²² And has put all [things] under his feet and gave him [to be] the head over all [things] to the church,

²³ which is his body, and he is the fullness of her: who fills all things in everyone.:
