ABP - Ephesians - 3

3:1  For this favor, I Paul, the prisoner of the Christ Jesus, for of you of the nations,

3:2  if indeed you heard the administration of the favor of God having been given to me towards you,

3:3  that by revelation he made known to me the mystery (as I wrote beforehand a little,

3:4  to which you are able reading to comprehend my understanding in the mystery of the Christ),

3:5  which unto other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as now it was revealed to [2holy 3apostles 1his] and prophets in spirit;

3:6  [3to be 1for the 2nations] joint-heirs, and joint-bodies, and joint-partners, of his promise in the Christ through the good news,

3:7  of which I became servant according to the gift of the favor of God, the one given to me according to the energy of his power.

3:8  To me the less than the least of all of the holy ones, was given this favor among the nations to announce good news -- the untraceable riches of the Christ,

3:9  and to enlighten all as to what is the fellowship of the mystery of the thing being concealed from the eons by God, to the one [2all things 1having created] through Jesus Christ,

3:10  that should be made known now to the sovereignties and to the authorities among the heavenlies through the assembly, the multifarious wisdom of God,

3:11  according to the intention of the eons, which he made in Christ Jesus our Lord;

3:12  in whom we have an open manner and access in reliance through the belief of his.

3:13  Therefore I ask not to tire in my afflictions for you, which is your glory.

3:14  For this favor I bend my knees to the father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

3:15  of whom every family in the heavens and upon earth is named,

3:16  that he should give to you according to the riches of his glory, power to be fortified through his spirit, in the inside man;

3:17  [3to dwell 1for the 2Christ] through the belief in your hearts, in love being rooted and founded;

3:18  that you should be competent to perceive with all the holy ones, what is the width and length and depth and height;

3:19  and to know [5which 6exceeds 1the 7knowledge 2love 3of the 4Christ], that you should be filled in all the fullness of God.

3:20  And to the one being able above all to do superabundantly what we ask or comprehend, according to the power operating in us,

3:21  to him be the glory in the assembly in Christ Jesus, to all the generations of the eon of the eons. Amen.
