< Ephesians 1 >
1 Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the purpose of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and those who have faith in Christ Jesus:
παυλος αποστολος ιησου χριστου δια θεληματος θεου τοις αγιοις τοις ουσιν εν εφεσω και πιστοις εν χριστω ιησου
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
χαρις υμιν και ειρηνη απο θεου πατρος ημων και κυριου ιησου χριστου
3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has given us every blessing of the Spirit in the heavens in Christ:
ευλογητος ο θεος και πατηρ του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου ο ευλογησας ημας εν παση ευλογια πνευματικη εν τοις επουρανιοις εν χριστω
4 Even as he made selection of us in him from the first, so that we might be holy and free from all evil before him in love:
καθως εξελεξατο ημας εν αυτω προ καταβολης κοσμου ειναι ημας αγιους και αμωμους κατενωπιον αυτου εν αγαπη
5 As we were designed before by him for the position of sons to himself, through Jesus Christ, in the good pleasure of his purpose,
προορισας ημας εις υιοθεσιαν δια ιησου χριστου εις αυτον κατα την ευδοκιαν του θεληματος αυτου
6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, which he freely gave to us in the Loved One:
εις επαινον δοξης της χαριτος αυτου εν η εχαριτωσεν ημας εν τω ηγαπημενω
7 In whom we have salvation through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins, through the wealth of his grace,
εν ω εχομεν την απολυτρωσιν δια του αιματος αυτου την αφεσιν των παραπτωματων κατα τον πλουτον της χαριτος αυτου
8 Which he gave us in full measure in all wisdom and care;
ης επερισσευσεν εις ημας εν παση σοφια και φρονησει
9 Having made clear to us the secret of his purpose, in agreement with the design which he had in mind, to put into his hands
γνωρισας ημιν το μυστηριον του θεληματος αυτου κατα την ευδοκιαν αυτου ην προεθετο εν αυτω
10 The ordering of the times when they are complete, so that all things might come to a head in Christ, the things in heaven and the things on the earth; in him, I say,
εις οικονομιαν του πληρωματος των καιρων ανακεφαλαιωσασθαι τα παντα εν τω χριστω τα επι τοις ουρανοις και τα επι της γης εν αυτω
11 In whom we have a heritage, being marked out from the first in his purpose who does all things in agreement with his designs;
εν ω και εκληρωθημεν προορισθεντες κατα προθεσιν του τα παντα ενεργουντος κατα την βουλην του θεληματος αυτου
12 So that his glory might have praise through us who first had hope in Christ:
εις το ειναι ημας εις επαινον της δοξης αυτου τους προηλπικοτας εν τω χριστω
13 In whom you, having been given the true word, the good news of your salvation, and through your faith in him, were given the sign of the Holy Spirit of hope,
εν ω και ημεις ακουσαντες τον λογον της αληθειας το ευαγγελιον της σωτηριας υμων εν ω και πιστευσαντες εσφραγισθητε τω πνευματι της επαγγελιας τω αγιω
14 Which is the first-fruit of our heritage, till God gets back that which is his, to the praise of his glory.
ος εστιν αρραβων της κληρονομιας ημων εις απολυτρωσιν της περιποιησεως εις επαινον της δοξης αυτου
15 For this cause I, having had news of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and which you make clear to all the saints,
δια τουτο καγω ακουσας την καθ υμας πιστιν εν τω κυριω ιησου και την αγαπην την εις παντας τους αγιους
16 Give praise without end for you, keeping you in mind in my prayers;
ου παυομαι ευχαριστων υπερ υμων μνειαν υμων ποιουμενος επι των προσευχων μου
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him;
ινα ο θεος του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου ο πατηρ της δοξης δωη υμιν πνευμα σοφιας και αποκαλυψεως εν επιγνωσει αυτου
18 And that having the eyes of your heart full of light, you may have knowledge of what is the hope of his purpose, what is the wealth of the glory of his heritage in the saints,
πεφωτισμενους τους οφθαλμους της καρδιας υμων εις το ειδεναι υμας τις εστιν η ελπις της κλησεως αυτου και τις ο πλουτος της δοξης της κληρονομιας αυτου εν τοις αγιοις
19 And how unlimited is his power to us who have faith, as is seen in the working of the strength of his power,
και τι το υπερβαλλον μεγεθος της δυναμεως αυτου εις ημας τους πιστευοντας κατα την ενεργειαν του κρατους της ισχυος αυτου
20 By which he made Christ come back from the dead, and gave him a place at his right hand in heaven,
ην ενηργησεν εν τω χριστω εγειρας αυτον εκ των νεκρων και εκαθισεν εν δεξια αυτου εν τοις επουρανιοις
21 Far over all rule and authority and power and every name which is named, not only in the present order, but in that which is to come: (aiōn )
υπερανω πασης αρχης και εξουσιας και δυναμεως και κυριοτητος και παντος ονοματος ονομαζομενου ου μονον εν τω αιωνι τουτω αλλα και εν τω μελλοντι (aiōn )
22 And he has put all things under his feet, and has made him to be head over all things to the church,
και παντα υπεταξεν υπο τους ποδας αυτου και αυτον εδωκεν κεφαλην υπερ παντα τη εκκλησια
23 Which is his body, the full measure of him in whom all things are made complete.
ητις εστιν το σωμα αυτου το πληρωμα του τα παντα εν πασιν πληρουμενου
