⁹ And so, ^(A)from the day we heard, ^(B)we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that ^(C)you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all ^(D)spiritual wisdom and understanding, ¹⁰ so as ^(E)to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, ^(F)fully pleasing to him: ^(G)bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;

¹⁷ that ^(A)the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, ^(B)may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, ^18 (C)having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is ^(D)the hope to which he has called you, what are ^(E)the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, ¹⁹ and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, ^(F)according to the working of ^(G)his great might ²⁰ that he worked in Christ ^(H)when he raised him from the dead and ^(I)seated him at his right hand ^(J)in the heavenly places, ^21 (K)far above ^(L)all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above ^(M)every name that is named, not only in ^(N)this age but also in the one to come. ²² And ^(O)he put all things under his feet and gave him as ^(P)head over all things to the church, ^23 (Q)which is his body, ^(R)the fullness of him ^(S)who fills ^(T)all in all.

⁹ And it is my prayer that ^(A)your love may abound more and more, ^(B)with knowledge and all discernment, ¹⁰ so that you may approve what is excellent, ^(C)and so be pure and blameless ^(D)for the day of Christ, ¹¹ filled ^(E)with the fruit of righteousness that comes ^(F)through Jesus Christ, ^(G)to the glory and praise of God.
