Ephesians 1:18-23
International Children’s Bible
18 I pray that you will have greater understanding in your heart. Then you will know the hope that God has chosen to give us. I pray that you will know that the blessings God has promised his holy people are rich and glorious. 19 And you will know that God’s power is very great for us who believe. That power is the same as the great strength 20 God used to raise Christ from death and put him at his right side in heaven. 21 God made Christ more important than all rulers, authorities, powers, and kings. Christ is more important than anything in this world or in the next world. 22 God put everything under his power. And God made him the head over everything for the church. 23 The church is Christ’s body. The church is filled with Christ, and Christ fills everything in every way.

New International Version
18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened(A) in order that you may know the hope to which he has called(B) you, the riches(C) of his glorious inheritance(D) in his holy people,(E) 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power(F) is the same as the mighty strength(G) 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead(H) and seated him at his right hand(I) in the heavenly realms,(J) 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion,(K) and every name(L) that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.(M) 22 And God placed all things under his feet(N) and appointed him to be head(O) over everything for the church, 23 which is his body,(P) the fullness of him(Q) who fills everything in every way.(R)
