Ephesians 3

1 For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you the non-Jews,NHEB — Ephesians 3:1

2 if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me toward you;NHEB — Ephesians 3:2

3 how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote before in few words,NHEB — Ephesians 3:3

4 by which, when you read, you can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Christ;NHEB — Ephesians 3:4

5 which in other generations was not made known to people, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit;NHEB — Ephesians 3:5

6 that the non-Jews are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,NHEB — Ephesians 3:6

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.NHEB — Ephesians 3:7

8 To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to proclaim to the non-Jews the unsearchable riches of Christ,NHEB — Ephesians 3:8

9 and to bring to light for all what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things;NHEB — Ephesians 3:9

10 to the intent that now through the church the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places,NHEB — Ephesians 3:10

11 according to the purpose of the ages which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord;NHEB — Ephesians 3:11

12 in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him.NHEB — Ephesians 3:12

13 Therefore I ask that you not be discouraged because of my sufferings for you, which is your glory.NHEB — Ephesians 3:13

14 For this cause, I bow my knees before the Father,NHEB — Ephesians 3:14

15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,NHEB — Ephesians 3:15

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 inner person;NHEB — Ephesians 3:16

17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love,NHEB — Ephesians 3:17

18 may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,NHEB — Ephesians 3:18

19 and to know Christ's love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.NHEB — Ephesians 3:19

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,NHEB — Ephesians 3:20

21 to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.NHEB — Ephesians 3:21
