Ephesians 1:10-16
New King James Version
10 that in the dispensation of (A)the fullness of the times (B)He might gather together in one (C)all things in Christ, [a]both which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him. 11 (D)In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to (E)the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, 12 (F)that we (G)who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.
13 In Him you also trusted, after you heard (H)the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, (I)you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 (J)who[b] is the [c]guarantee of our inheritance (K)until the redemption of (L)the purchased possession, (M)to the praise of His glory.

Ephesians 1:10-16
New International Version
10 to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment(A)—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.(B)
11 In him we were also chosen,[a] having been predestined(C) according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose(D) of his will, 12 in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.(E) 13 And you also were included in Christ(F) when you heard the message of truth,(G) the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal,(H) the promised Holy Spirit,(I) 14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance(J) until the redemption(K) of those who are God’s possession—to the praise of his glory.(L)
Thanksgiving and Prayer
15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus(M) and your love for all God’s people,(N) 16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you,(O) remembering you in my prayers.(P)
