3 (A)how the mystery was made known to me (B)by revelation, (C)as I have written briefly. 4 (D)When you read this, you can perceive my insight into (E)the mystery of Christ, 5 which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit. 6 This mystery is[a] that the Gentiles are (F)fellow heirs, (G)members of the same body, and (H)partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.
7 (I)Of this gospel I was made (J)a minister according to the gift of (K)God's grace, which was given me (L)by the working of his power. 8 To me, (M)though I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given, (N)to preach to the Gentiles the (O)unsearchable (P)riches of Christ, 9 and (Q)to bring to light for everyone what is the plan of the mystery (R)hidden for ages in[b] God, (S)who created all things,

7 I became a servant of this gospel(H) by the gift of God’s grace given me(I) through the working of his power.(J) 8 Although I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people,(K) this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles(L) the boundless riches of Christ,(M) 9 and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery,(N) which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things.
