(A)Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Spiritual Blessings in Christ

(B)Blessed be (C)the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing (D)in the heavenly places, (E)even as he (F)chose us in him (G)before the foundation of the world, that we should be (H)holy and blameless before him. In love (I)he predestined us[a] for (J)adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, (K)according to the purpose of his will, (L)to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in (M)the Beloved.
