[1]For thisG5127 causeG5484 IG1473 PaulG3972, the prisonerG1198 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG5228 youG5216 GentilesG1484,
[2]IfG1489 ye have heardG191[G5656] of the dispensationG3622 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316 whichG3588 is givenG1325[G5685] meG3427 toG1519 you-wardG5209:
[3]How thatG3754 byG2596 revelationG602 he made knownG1107[G5656] unto meG3427 the mysteryG3466; (asG2531 I wrote aforeG4270[G5656] inG1722 few wordsG3641,
[4]WherebyG4314[G3739], when ye readG314[G5723], ye mayG1410[G5736] understandG3539[G5658] myG3450 knowledgeG4907 inG1722 the mysteryG3466 of ChristG5547)
[5]WhichG3739 inG1722 otherG2087 agesG1074 wasG1107 notG3756 made knownG1107[G5681] unto the sonsG5207 of menG444, asG5613 it isG601 nowG3568 revealedG601[G5681] unto hisG846 holyG40 apostlesG652 andG2532 prophetsG4396 byG1722 the SpiritG4151;
[6]That the GentilesG1484 should beG1511[G5750] fellowheirsG4789, andG2532 of the same bodyG4954, andG2532 partakersG4830 of hisG846 promiseG1860 inG1722 ChristG5547 byG1223 the gospelG2098:
[7]WhereofG3739 I was madeG1096[G5633] a ministerG1249, accordingG2596 to the giftG1431 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316 givenG1325[G5685] unto meG3427 byG2596 the effectual workingG1753 of hisG846 powerG1411.
[8]Unto meG1698, who am less than the leastG1647 of allG3956 saintsG40, isG1325 thisG3778 graceG5485 givenG1325[G5681], that I should preachG2097[G5670] amongG1722 the GentilesG1484 the unsearchableG421 richesG4149 of ChristG5547;
[9]AndG2532 to makeG5461 allG3956 men seeG5461[G5658] whatG5101 is the fellowshipG2842 of the mysteryG3466, whichG3588 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165 hath been hidG613[G5772] inG1722 GodG2316, whoG3588 createdG2936[G5660] all thingsG3956 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
[10]To the intent thatG2443 nowG3568 unto the principalitiesG746 andG2532 powersG1849 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places might be knownG1107[G5686] byG1223 the churchG1577 the manifoldG4182 wisdomG4678 of GodG2316,
[11]According toG2596 the eternalG165 purposeG4286 whichG3739 he purposedG4160[G5656] inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 ourG2257 LordG2962:
[12]InG1722 whomG3739 we haveG2192[G5719] boldnessG3954 andG2532 accessG4318 withG1722 confidenceG4006 byG1223 the faithG4102 of himG846.
[13]WhereforeG1352 I desireG154[G5731] that ye faintG1573[G5721] notG3361 atG1722 myG3450 tribulationsG2347 forG5228 youG5216, whichG3748 isG2076[G5748] yourG5216 gloryG1391.
[14]For thisG5127 causeG5484 I bowG2578[G5719] myG3450 kneesG1119 untoG4314 the FatherG3962 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
[15]OfG1537 whomG3739 the wholeG3956 familyG3965 inG1722 heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1909[G1093] G3687is namedG5743
[16]ThatG2443 he would grantG1325[G5632][G5630] youG5213, according toG2596 the richesG4149 of hisG846 gloryG1391, to be strengthenedG2901[G5683] with mightG1411 byG1223 hisG846 SpiritG4151 inG1519 the innerG2080 manG444;
[17]That ChristG5547 may dwellG2730[G5658] inG1722 yourG5216 heartsG2588 byG1223 faithG4102; thatG2443 ye, being rootedG4492[G5772] andG2532 groundedG2311[G5772] inG1722 loveG26,
[18]May be ableG1840[G5661] to comprehendG2638[G5641] withG4862 allG3956 saintsG40 whatG5101 is the breadthG4114, andG2532 lengthG3372, andG2532 depthG899, andG2532 heightG5311;
[19]AndG5037 to knowG1097[G5629] the loveG26 of ChristG5547, which passethG5235[G5723] knowledgeG1108, thatG2443 ye might be filledG4137[G5686] withG1519 allG3956 the fulnessG4138 of GodG2316.
[20]NowG1161 unto him that is ableG1410[G5740] to doG4160[G5658] exceedingG5228 abundantlyG1537[G4053] aboveG5228 allG3956 thatG3739 we askG154[G5731] orG2228 thinkG3539[G5719], according toG2596 the powerG1411 that workethG1754[G5734] inG1722 usG2254,
[21]Unto himG846 be gloryG1391 inG1722 the churchG1577 byG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 throughoutG1519 allG3956 agesG1074, worldG165 without endG165. AmenG281.
