Ephesians 2

1 And you hath he made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins;

AND you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins,

2 In which in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: (aiōn g165)

wherein in times past ye walked after the fashion of this world, after the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now worketh with energy in the children of disobedience: (aiōn g165)

3 Among whom also we all had our manner of life in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

among whom also we all have had our conversation in time past, in the lusts of the flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, as well as the rest.

4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,

But God, being rich in mercy, through the great love with which he hath loved us,

5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath made us alive together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved; )

though we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved, )

6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

and hath raised us up together with him, and made us sit down together in the heavenly regions in Christ Jesus.

7 That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)

That he might shew forth in the ages to come the transcendent riches of his grace, in the kindness shewed to us in Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)

8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

For by grace ye are saved through faith, and this not of yourselves; it is the gift of God:

9 Not by works, lest any man should boast.

not by works, lest any man should boast;

10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

for we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, for which God hath before prepared us, that we should walk therein.

11 Therefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

Wherefore remember that ye in time past were Gentiles in the flesh, who are called uncircumcision by that called circumcision made by hands in the flesh;

12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

that ye were at that time without Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope, and atheists in the world:

13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who once were far off are made near by the blood of Christ.

but now in Christ Jesus, ye who formerly were far off, are become nigh by the blood of Christ.

14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of separation,

15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; to make in himself of two one new man, so making peace;

destroying the enmity in his flesh, even the law of precepts, in ordinances, that he might from the two create in himself one new man, making peace,

16 And that he might reconcile both to God in one body by the cross, having by himself slain the enmity:

and might reconcile them both in one body to God by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby;

17 And came and preached peace to you who were afar off, and to them that were near.

and coming, hath preached peace to you who were afar off, and to those who were nigh:

18 For through him we both have an access by one Spirit to the Father.

for through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.

19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and aliens, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

So then ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

built up on the foundation of apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth to an holy temple in the Lord:

in whom the whole building exactly cemented together groweth into a holy temple in the Lord:

22 In whom ye also are built together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

by whom also ye have been built up together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
