Paul an apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, to the saints, who are at Ephesus, even the faithful in Christ Jesus;
2 χαρις υμιν και ειρηνη απο θεου πατρος ημων και κυριου ιησου χριστου
grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 ευλογητος ο θεος και πατηρ του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου ο ευλογησας ημας εν παση ευλογια πνευματικη εν τοις επουρανιοις εν χριστω
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly things by Christ;
4 καθως εξελεξατο ημας εν αυτω προ καταβολης κοσμου ειναι ημας αγιους και αμωμους κατενωπιον αυτου εν αγαπη
according as he hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and unblameable before Him in love:
5 προορισας ημας εις υιοθεσιαν δια ιησου χριστου εις αυτον κατα την ευδοκιαν του θεληματος αυτου
having before appointed us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ unto Himself, according to the good pleasure of his will;
6 εις επαινον δοξης της χαριτος αυτου ης εχαριτωσεν ημας εν τω ηγαπημενω
to the praise of his glorious grace, whereby He hath made us acceptable in the Beloved:
7 εν ω εχομεν την απολυτρωσιν δια του αιματος αυτου την αφεσιν των παραπτωματων κατα το πλουτος της χαριτος αυτου
in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the remission of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
8 ης επερισσευσεν εις ημας εν παση σοφια και φρονησει
wherein He hath abounded towards us with the highest wisdom and prudence;
9 γνωρισας ημιν το μυστηριον του θεληματος αυτου κατα την ευδοκιαν αυτου ην προεθετο εν αυτω
having made known to us the secret of his will, according to his good pleasure, which He had before purposed in Himself:
10 εις οικονομιαν του πληρωματος των καιρων ανακεφαλαιωσασθαι τα παντα εν τω χριστω τα επι τοις ουρανοις και τα επι της γης
that in the dispensation of the fulness of times, He might reduce all things, both in heaven and on earth, under one head in Christ:
11 εν αυτω εν ω και εκληρωθημεν προορισθεντες κατα προθεσιν του τα παντα ενεργουντος κατα την βουλην του θεληματος αυτου
even in Him, in whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated to it according to the purpose of Him who effecteth all things after the counsel of His own will:
12 εις το ειναι ημας εις επαινον δοξης αυτου τους προηλπικοτας εν τω χριστω
that we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
13 εν ω και υμεις ακουσαντες τον λογον της αληθειας το ευαγγελιον της σωτηριας υμων εν ω και πιστευσαντες εσφραγισθητε τω πνευματι της επαγγελιας τω αγιω
In whom ye also trusted, when ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also when ye believed, ye were sealed with the holy Spirit of promise,
14 ο εστιν αρραβων της κληρονομιας ημων εις απολυτρωσιν της περιποιησεως εις επαινον της δοξης αυτου
who is the pledge of our inheritance, till the redemption of his purchased possession, to the praise of his glory.
15 δια τουτο καγω ακουσας την καθ υμας πιστιν εν τω κυριω ιησου και την {VAR2: αγαπην την } εις παντας τους αγιους
Wherefore I also, having heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus,
16 ου παυομαι ευχαριστων υπερ υμων μνειαν ποιουμενος επι των προσευχων μου
and your love to all the saints, cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 ινα ο θεος του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου ο πατηρ της δοξης δωη υμιν πνευμα σοφιας και αποκαλυψεως εν επιγνωσει αυτου
that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, would give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation to the knowledge of Him,
18 πεφωτισμενους τους οφθαλμους της καρδιας [υμων] εις το ειδεναι υμας τις εστιν η ελπις της κλησεως αυτου τις ο πλουτος της δοξης της κληρονομιας αυτου εν τοις αγιοις
and enlighten the eyes of your understanding; that ye may know, what is the hope of his calling, and how rich the glory of his inheritance in the saints;
19 και τι το υπερβαλλον μεγεθος της δυναμεως αυτου εις ημας τους πιστευοντας κατα την ενεργειαν του κρατους της ισχυος αυτου
and what the exceeding greatness of his power towards us who believe, according to the energy of his mighty strength;
20 ην {VAR1: ενηργηκεν } {VAR2: ενηργησεν } εν τω χριστω εγειρας αυτον εκ νεκρων και καθισας εν δεξια αυτου εν τοις επουρανιοις
which He exerted in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at his own right hand in heavenly places,
21 υπερανω πασης αρχης και εξουσιας και δυναμεως και κυριοτητος και παντος ονοματος ονομαζομενου ου μονον εν τω αιωνι τουτω αλλα και εν τω μελλοντι (aiōn g165)
far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: (aiōn g165)
22 και παντα υπεταξεν υπο τους ποδας αυτου και αυτον εδωκεν κεφαλην υπερ παντα τη εκκλησια
and hath put all things under his feet, and given Him to be head over all things to the church;
23 ητις εστιν το σωμα αυτου το πληρωμα του τα παντα εν πασιν πληρουμενου
which is his body, the complete work of Him, who filleth all in all.
