以弗所书 3:8-13
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
8 我本来比众圣徒中最小的还小,然而他还赐我这恩典,叫我把基督那测不透的丰富传给外邦人, 9 又使众人都明白,这历代以来隐藏在创造万物之神里的奥秘是如何安排的, 10 为要借着教会,使天上执政的、掌权的现在得知神百般的智慧。 11 这是照神从万世以前在我们主基督耶稣里所定的旨意。 12 我们因信耶稣,就在他里面放胆无惧,笃信不疑地来到神面前。 13 所以,我求你们不要因我为你们所受的患难丧胆,这原是你们的荣耀。

Ephesians 3:8-13
New International Version
8 Although I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people,(A) this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles(B) the boundless riches of Christ,(C) 9 and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery,(D) which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things. 10 His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God(E) should be made known(F) to the rulers and authorities(G) in the heavenly realms,(H) 11 according to his eternal purpose(I) that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. 12 In him and through faith in him we may approach God(J) with freedom and confidence.(K) 13 I ask you, therefore, not to be discouraged because of my sufferings for you, which are your glory.
Ephesians 3:8-13
New King James Version
Purpose of the Mystery
8 To me, (A)who am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given, that I should preach among the Gentiles (B)the unsearchable riches of Christ, 9 and to make all see what is the [a]fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who (C)created all things [b]through Jesus Christ; 10 (D)to the intent that now (E)the [c]manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church (F)to the [d]principalities and powers in the heavenly places, 11 (G)according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, 12 in whom we have boldness and access (H)with confidence through faith in Him. 13 (I)Therefore I ask that you do not lose heart at my tribulations for you, (J)which is your glory.
