¹⁰ as a plan for ^(A)the fullness of time, ^(B)to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.

²² And ^(A)he put all things under his feet and gave him as ^(B)head over all things to the church, ^23 (C)which is his body, ^(D)the fullness of him ^(E)who fills ^(F)all in all.

¹⁶ And ^(A)I have other sheep that are not of this fold. ^(B)I must bring them also, and ^(C)they will listen to my voice. So there will be ^(D)one flock, ^(E)one shepherd.

⁵² and ^(A)not for the nation only, but also ^(B)to gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.

²³ For ^(A)the husband is the head of the wife even as ^(B)Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is ^(C)himself its Savior. ²⁴ Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit ^(D)in everything to their husbands.

^25 (E)Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and ^(F)gave himself up for her, ²⁶ that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by ^(G)the washing of water ^(H)with the word, ²⁷ so ^(I)that he might present the church to himself in splendor, ^(J)without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.^{[a] 28} In the same way ^(K)husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. ²⁹ For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, ³⁰ because ^(L)we are members of his body. ^31 (M)“Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and ^(N)the two shall become one flesh.” ³² This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church.

A Great Multitude from Every Nation

⁹ After this I looked, and behold, ^(A)a great multitude that no one could number, ^(B)from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, ^(C)clothed in white robes, with ^(D)palm branches in their hands,

²¹ “And as for me, ^(A)this is my covenant with them,” says the Lord: “My Spirit that is upon you, ^(B)and my words that I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, or out of the mouth of your offspring, or out of the mouth of your children's offspring,” says the Lord, “from this time forth and forevermore.”
