Ephesians 3:7-13

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁷ I was made a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace that was given to me by the working of His power.^(A)

⁸ This grace was given to me—the least of all the saints—to proclaim to the Gentiles the incalculable riches^(B) of the Messiah, ⁹ and to shed light for all about the administration of the mystery hidden for ages in God who created^(C) all things. ¹⁰ This is so God’s multi-faceted wisdom^(D) may now be made known through the church to the rulers and authorities in the heavens.^{(E) 11} This is according to His eternal purpose^(F) accomplished in the Messiah, Jesus our Lord. ¹² In Him we have boldness and confident access^(G) through faith in Him.^{[a] 13} So then I ask you not to be discouraged^(H) over my afflictions on your behalf, for they are your glory.^(I)
