Ephesians 3
1 For this reason, 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, indeed, you have heard of the administration of the favor of God, which was given me for you,
ειγε ηκουσατε την οικονομιαν της χαριτος του θεου της δοθεισης μοι εις υμας
3 that by revelation the secret was made known to me, (as I wrote before in a few words;
οτι κατα αποκαλυψιν εγνωρισεν μοι το μυστηριον καθως προεγραψα εν ολιγω
4 by which, when you read, you may perceive my knowledge of the secret of Christ, )
προς ο δυνασθε αναγινωσκοντες νοησαι την συνεσιν μου εν τω μυστηριω του χριστου
5 which in former ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it is 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 fellow-heirs, and of the same body, and joint partakers 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 was made a minister, according to the gift of the favor of God which was given to me, according to the energy 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, the least of saints, was this favor given, to publish 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 see what is the administration of the secret, which has been hid from the ages by God, who created all things. (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 government and powers in the heavenly regions, might be made known by the congregation the manifold wisdom of God;
ινα γνωρισθη νυν ταις αρχαις και ταις εξουσιαις εν τοις επουρανιοις δια της εκκλησιας η πολυποικιλος σοφια του θεου
κατα προθεσιν των αιωνων ην εποιησεν εν χριστω ιησου τω κυριω ημων (aiōn g165)
12 in whom we have liberty of speech, and introduction with confidence, through the faith of him.
εν ω εχομεν την παρρησιαν και την προσαγωγην εν πεποιθησει δια της πιστεως αυτου
13 Wherefore, I request that you faint not at my afflictions for you, which is your glory.
διο αιτουμαι μη εκκακειν εν ταις θλιψεσιν μου υπερ υμων ητις εστιν δοξα υμων
14 On this account, 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 from whom the whole family in heaven and upon earth is named;
εξ ου πασα πατρια εν ουρανοις και επι γης ονομαζεται
16 praying that, according to the riches of his glory, he would grant you to be mightily strengthened by his Spirit in the inward 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 in your hearts through faith; that, being rooted and founded in love, you
κατοικησαι τον χριστον δια της πιστεως εν ταις καρδιαις υμων
18 may be completely able to apprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and hight, --
εν αγαπη ερριζωμενοι και τεθεμελιωμενοι ινα εξισχυσητε καταλαβεσθαι συν πασιν τοις αγιοις τι το πλατος και μηκος και βαθος και υψος
19 even to know the love of Christ; which surpasses knowledge; that you might be filled with all the fullness of God.
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 exceeding abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power which works effectually in us, --
τω δε δυναμενω υπερ παντα ποιησαι υπερ εκ περισσου ων αιτουμεθα η νοουμεν κατα την δυναμιν την ενεργουμενην εν ημιν
