< Ephesians 3 >

1 FOR this cause am I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,
τουτου χαριν εγω παυλος ο δεσμιος του χριστου ιησου υπερ υμων των εθνων
2 if so be, that ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which was given to me for you:
ειγε ηκουσατε την οικονομιαν της χαριτος του θεου της δοθεισης μοι εις υμας
3 that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery, as I wrote unto you before briefly;
οτι κατα αποκαλυψιν εγνωρισεν μοι το μυστηριον καθως προεγραψα εν ολιγω
4 wherein when ye read, ye may be able to perceive my knowledge in the mystery of Christ,
προς ο δυνασθε αναγινωσκοντες νοησαι την συνεσιν μου εν τω μυστηριω του χριστου
5 which in other generations was not made known to the children of men, as it hath been now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
ο εν ετεραις γενεαις ουκ εγνωρισθη τοις υιοις των ανθρωπων ως νυν απεκαλυφθη τοις αγιοις αποστολοις αυτου και προφηταις εν πνευματι
6 that the Gentiles should be co-heirs, and of the same body, and sharers with them of his promise in Christ by the Gospel:
ειναι τα εθνη συγκληρονομα και συσσωμα και συμμετοχα της επαγγελιας αυτου εν τω χριστω δια του ευαγγελιου
7 of which I am made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God, which was given unto me by the effectual 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 saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
εμοι τω ελαχιστοτερω παντων των αγιων εδοθη η χαρις αυτη εν τοις εθνεσιν ευαγγελισασθαι τον ανεξιχνιαστον πλουτον του χριστου
9 and to make all men see what the communication of that mystery means, which was hid from the beginning in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: (aiōn g165)
και φωτισαι παντας τις η κοινωνια του μυστηριου του αποκεκρυμμενου απο των αιωνων εν τω θεω τω τα παντα κτισαντι δια ιησου χριστου (aiōn g165)
10 that now to the principalities and powers in the heavenly regions, the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church,
ινα γνωρισθη νυν ταις αρχαις και ταις εξουσιαις εν τοις επουρανιοις δια της εκκλησιας η πολυποικιλος σοφια του θεου
11 according to the purpose from everlasting, which he formed in Christ Jesus our Lord: (aiōn g165)
κατα προθεσιν των αιωνων ην εποιησεν εν χριστω ιησου τω κυριω ημων (aiōn g165)
12 in whom we have boldness and access with confidence to God by the faith of him.
εν ω εχομεν την παρρησιαν και την προσαγωγην εν πεποιθησει δια της πιστεως αυτου
13 Wherefore 1 beseech you, that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
διο αιτουμαι μη εκκακειν εν ταις θλιψεσιν μου υπερ υμων ητις εστιν δοξα υμων
14 For this end I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
τουτου χαριν καμπτω τα γονατα μου προς τον πατερα του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου
15 of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named;
εξ ου πασα πατρια εν ουρανοις και επι γης ονομαζεται
16 that he would give you according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his spirit in the inner man;
ινα δωη υμιν κατα τον πλουτον της δοξης αυτου δυναμει κραταιωθηναι δια του πνευματος αυτου εις τον εσω ανθρωπον
17 that Christ may dwell by faith in your hearts; that rooted and grounded in love,
κατοικησαι τον χριστον δια της πιστεως εν ταις καρδιαις υμων εν αγαπη ερριζωμενοι και τεθεμελιωμενοι
18 ye may be strengthened to comprehend with all saints, what is the breadth and length, and height and depth;
ινα εξισχυσητε καταλαβεσθαι συν πασιν τοις αγιοις τι το πλατος και μηκος και βαθος και υψος
19 and to know the love of Christ, transcendently surpassing knowledge, that ye may be filled with all the fulness of God.
γνωναι τε την υπερβαλλουσαν της γνωσεως αγαπην του χριστου ινα πληρωθητε εις παν το πληρωμα του θεου
20 Now to him that is able to do above all things, exceeding abundantly, beyond what we ask or think, according to the power which effectually worketh 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 glory in the church, in Christ Jesus, unto all generations for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
αυτω η δοξα εν τη εκκλησια εν χριστω ιησου εις πασας τας γενεας του αιωνος των αιωνων αμην (aiōn g165)
