¹ For this cause I, Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,

² if ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which has been given to me in you,

³ how that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery (as I wrote above in [a] few words,

⁴ by which, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of the Christ),

⁵ which in other generations was not made known unto the sons of men as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit,

⁶ that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs and of the same body and partakers of his promise in the Christ by the gospel,

⁷ of which I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the operation of his power.

⁸ 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 the Christ

⁹ and to make all [men] see what [is] the fellowship of the mystery, which from the ages has been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ.

¹⁰ To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly [places] might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

¹¹ according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord,

¹² In whom we have security and access with confidence by the faith of him.

¹³ Therefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

¹⁴ For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ

¹⁵ (of whom the whole family in [the] heavens and on earth is named),

¹⁶ that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man,

¹⁷ that the Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith, that ye, being rooted and grounded in charity,

¹⁸ may be able to [well] comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth and length and depth and height

¹⁹ and to know the charity of the Christ, which passes all knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God.

²⁰ Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,

²¹ unto him [be] glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all generations of the ages of the ages. Amen.:
