Ephesians 2:8-10
New International Version
8 For it is by grace(A) you have been saved,(B) through faith(C)—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works,(D) so that no one can boast.(E) 10 For we are God’s handiwork,(F) created(G) in Christ Jesus to do good works,(H) which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Ephesians 2:8-10
International Standard Version
8 For by such grace you have been saved through faith. This does not come from you; it is the gift of God 9 and not the result of actions, to put a stop to all boasting.[a] 10 For we are God’s[b] masterpiece,[c] created in the Messiah[d] Jesus to perform good actions that God prepared long ago to be our way of life.[e]
