< Ephesians 3 >

1 For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles,
τουτου χαριν εγω παυλος ο δεσμιος του χριστου ιησου υπερ υμων των εθνων
2 If that ordering of the grace of God has come to your knowledge, which was given to me for you,
ει γε ηκουσατε την οικονομιαν της χαριτος του θεου της δοθεισης μοι εις υμας
3 How by revelation the secret was made clear to me, as I said before in a short letter,
οτι κατα αποκαλυψιν εγνωρισεν μοι το μυστηριον καθως προεγραψα εν ολιγω
4 By the reading of which you will be clear about my knowledge of the secret of Christ;
προς ο δυνασθε αναγινωσκοντες νοησαι την συνεσιν μου εν τω μυστηριω του χριστου
5 Which in other generations was not given to the sons of men, but the revelation of it has now been made to his holy Apostles and prophets in the Spirit;
ο ετεραις γενεαις ουκ εγνωρισθη τοις υιοις των ανθρωπων ως νυν απεκαλυφθη τοις αγιοις αποστολοις αυτου και προφηταις εν πνευματι
6 Which is that the Gentiles have a part in the heritage, and in the same body, and in the same hope in Christ through the good news,
ειναι τα εθνη συγκληρονομα και συσσωμα και συμμετοχα της επαγγελιας αυτου εν τω χριστω δια του ευαγγελιου
7 Of which I was made a preacher, through that grace of God which was given to me in the measure of the working of his power.
ου εγενομην διακονος κατα την δωρεαν της χαριτος του θεου την δοθεισαν μοι κατα την ενεργειαν της δυναμεως αυτου
8 To me, who am less than the least of all the saints, was this grace given, so that I might make clear to the Gentiles the good news of the unending wealth of Christ:
εμοι τω ελαχιστοτερω παντων αγιων εδοθη η χαρις αυτη εν τοις εθνεσιν ευαγγελισασθαι τον ανεξιχνιαστον πλουτον του χριστου
9 And make all men see what is the ordering of the secret which from the first has been kept in God who made all things; (aiōn g165)
και φωτισαι παντας τις η οικονομια του μυστηριου του αποκεκρυμμενου απο των αιωνων εν τω θεω τω τα παντα κτισαντι δια ιησου χριστου (aiōn g165)
10 So that now to the rulers and the authorities in the heavens might be made clear through the church the wide-shining wisdom of God,
ινα γνωρισθη νυν ταις αρχαις και ταις εξουσιαις εν τοις επουρανιοις δια της εκκλησιας η πολυποικιλος σοφια του θεου
11 Which is seen in his eternal purpose in Christ Jesus our Lord: (aiōn g165)
κατα προθεσιν των αιωνων ην εποιησεν εν χριστω ιησου τω κυριω ημων (aiōn g165)
12 By whom we come near to God without fear through faith in him.
εν ω εχομεν την παρρησιαν και την προσαγωγην εν πεποιθησει δια της πιστεως αυτου
13 For this reason it is my prayer that you may not become feeble because of my troubles for you, which are your glory.
διο αιτουμαι μη εκκακειν εν ταις θλιψεσιν μου υπερ υμων ητις εστιν δοξα υμων
14 For this cause I go down on my knees before the Father,
τουτου χαριν καμπτω τα γονατα μου προς τον πατερα του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου
15 From whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,
εξ ου πασα πατρια εν ουρανοις και επι γης ονομαζεται
16 That in the wealth of his glory he would make you strong with power through his Spirit in your hearts;
ινα δωη υμιν κατα τον πλουτον της δοξης αυτου δυναμει κραταιωθηναι δια του πνευματος αυτου εις τον εσω ανθρωπον
17 So that Christ may have his place in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and based in love,
κατοικησαι τον χριστον δια της πιστεως εν ταις καρδιαις υμων εν αγαπη ερριζωμενοι και τεθεμελιωμενοι
18 May have strength to see with all the saints how wide and long and high and deep it is,
ινα εξισχυσητε καταλαβεσθαι συν πασιν τοις αγιοις τι το πλατος και μηκος και βαθος και υψος
19 And to have knowledge of the love of Christ which is outside all knowledge, so that you may be made complete as God himself is complete.
γνωναι τε την υπερβαλλουσαν της γνωσεως αγαπην του χριστου ινα πληρωθητε εις παν το πληρωμα του θεου
20 Now to him who is able to do in full measure more than all our desires or thoughts, through the power which is working in us,
τω δε δυναμενω υπερ παντα ποιησαι υπερ εκ περισσου ων αιτουμεθα η νοουμεν κατα την δυναμιν την ενεργουμενην εν ημιν
21 To him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations for ever and ever. So be it. (aiōn g165)
αυτω η δοξα εν τη εκκλησια εν χριστω ιησου εις πασας τας γενεας του αιωνος των αιωνων αμην (aiōn g165)
