< Ephesians 1 >

1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus through the will of God, to the saints (in Ephesus) who are faithful in Christ Jesus:
Paulus Apostolus Iesu Christi per voluntatem Dei, omnibus sanctis, qui sunt Ephesi, et fidelibus in Christo Iesu.
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Gratia vobis, et pax a Deo Patre nostro, et Domino Iesu Christo.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ;
Benedictus Deus et Pater Domini nostri Iesu Christi, qui benedixit nos in omni benedictione spirituali in caelestibus in Christo,
4 even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without blemish before him in love;
sicut elegit nos in ipso ante mundi constitutionem, ut essemus sancti et immaculati in conspectu eius in charitate.
5 having predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,
Qui praedestinavit nos in adoptionem filiorum per Iesum Christum in ipsum: secundum propositum voluntatis suae,
6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, which he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved One,
in laudem gloriae gratiae suae, in qua gratificavit nos in dilecto filio suo.
7 in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,
In quo habemus redemptionem per sanguinem eius, remissionem peccatorum secundum divitias gratiae eius,
8 which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,
quae superabundavit in nobis in omni sapientia, et prudentia:
9 making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him
ut notum faceret nobis sacramentum voluntatis suae, secundum beneplacitum eius, quod proposuit in eo,
10 to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens, and the things on the earth, in him;
in dispensatione plenitudinis temporum, instaurare omnia in Christo, quae in caelis, et quae in terra sunt, in ipso:
11 in whom also we were assigned an inheritance, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who works all things after the counsel of his will;
In quo etiam et nos sorte vocati sumus praedestinati secundum propositum eius, qui operatur omnia secundum consilium voluntatis suae:
12 to the end that we should be to the praise of his glory, we who had before hoped in Christ:
ut simus in laudem gloriae eius nos, qui ante speravimus in Christo:
13 in whom you also, having heard the word of the truth, the Good News of your salvation, —in whom, having also believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,
In quo et vos, cum audissetis verbum veritatis, (Evangelium salutis vestrae) in quo et credentes signati estis Spiritu promissionis sancto,
14 who is a pledge of our inheritance, to the redemption of God's own possession, to the praise of his glory.
qui est pignus hereditatis nostrae, in redemptionem acquisitionis, in laudem gloriae ipsius.
15 For this cause I also, having heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and the love which you have toward all the saints,
Propterea et ego audiens fidem vestram, quae est in Christo Iesu, et dilectionem in omnes sanctos,
16 do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,
non cesso gratias agens pro vobis, memoriam vestri faciens in orationibus meis:
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;
ut Deus, Domini nostri Iesu Christi pater, gloriae, det vobis spiritum sapientiae et revelationis, in agnitione eius:
18 having the eyes of your heart enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
illuminatos oculos cordis vestri, ut sciatis quae sit spes vocationis eius, et quae divitiae gloriae hereditatis eius in sanctis,
19 and what is the exceeding greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to that working of the strength of his might
et quae sit supereminens magnitudo virtutis eius in nos, qui credimus secundum operationem potentiae virtutis eius,
20 which he worked in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly places,
quam operatus est in Christo, suscitans illum a mortuis, et constituens ad dexteram suam in caelestibus:
21 far above all rule, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come. (aiōn g165)
supra omnem principatum et potestatem, et virtutem, et dominationem, et omne nomen, quod nominatur non solum in hoc saeculo, sed etiam in futuro. (aiōn g165)
22 He put all things under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things for the church,
Et omnia subiecit sub pedibus eius: et ipsum dedit caput supra omnem Ecclesiam,
23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.
quae est corpus ipsius, et plenitudo eius, qui omnia in omnibus adimpletur.
