Ephesians 1

Spiritual Blessings in Christ

Paul, ^aan apostle of ^bChrist Jesus ¹^cby the will of God,
To the ²^dsaints who are ³at ^eEphesus and ^fwho are faithful in ^bChrist Jesus: 2 ^aGrace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 ^aBlessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in ^bthe heavenly places in Christ, 4 just as ^aHe chose us in Him before ^bthe foundation of the world, that we would be ^choly and blameless before ¹Him ^din love, 5 by ^apredestining us to ^badoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, ^caccording to the good pleasure of His will, 6 ^ato the praise of the glory of His grace, which He graciously bestowed on us in ^bthe Beloved. 7 ^aIn ¹Him we have ^bredemption ^cthrough His blood, the ^dforgiveness of our transgressions, according to ^ethe riches of His grace 8 which He caused to abound to us in all wisdom and insight, 9 ^amaking known to us the mystery of His will, ^baccording to His good pleasure which He ^cpurposed in Him 10 for an administration of ^athe fullness of the times, that is, ^bthe summing up of all things in Christ, things ¹in the heavens and things on the earth in Him. 11 In ¹Him, we also ²^ahave been made an inheritance, having been ^bpredestined ^caccording to the purpose of Him who works all things ^daccording to the counsel of His will, 12 to the end that we who first have hoped in ¹Christ would be ^ato the praise of His glory. 13 In ¹Him, you also, after listening to ^athe word of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also ²believed, you were ^bsealed in ¹Him with ^cthe Holy Spirit of promise, 14 who is ¹^agiven as a pledge of ^bour inheritance, unto the ^credemption of ^dGod’s own possession, ^eto the praise of His glory.
15 For this reason I too, ^ahaving heard of the faith in the Lord Jesus which exists among you and ¹your love for ^ball the ²saints, 16 ^ado not cease giving thanks for you, ^bwhile making mention of you in my prayers: 17 that the ^aGod of our Lord Jesus Christ, ^bthe Father of glory, may give to you the ¹Spirit of ^cwisdom and of ^drevelation in the ²full knowledge of Him, 18 so that you—^athe eyes of your heart having been enlightened—will know what is the ^bhope of His ^ccalling, what are ^dthe riches of the glory of ^eHis inheritance in ^fthe ¹saints, 19 and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe ^aaccording to the working of the ^bmight of His strength, 20 which He worked in Christ, by ^araising Him from the dead and ^bseating Him at His right hand in ^cthe heavenly places, 21 far above ^aall rule and authority and power and dominion, and every ^bname that is named, not only in ^cthis age but also in the one to come. 22 And ^aHe put all things in subjection under His feet, and gave Him as ^bhead over all things to the church, 23 which is His ^abody, the ^bfullness of Him who ^cfills ^dall in all.
