11 [a]In Him we also (A)have obtained an inheritance, having been (B)predestined (C)according to the purpose of Him who works all things (D)in accordance with the plan of His will, 12 to the end that [b]we who were the first to hope in the [c]Christ would be (E)to the praise of His glory. 13 In [d]Him, [e]you also, after listening to (F)the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also [f]believed, you were (G)sealed in [g]Him with (H)the Holy Spirit of the promise, 14 who is a (I)first installment of (J)our inheritance, in regard to the (K)redemption of (L)God’s own possession, (M)to the praise of His glory.

Ephesians 1:11-14
International Standard Version
11 In the Messiah[a] we were also chosen when we were predestined according to the purpose of the one who does everything that he wills to do, 12 so that we who had already fixed our hope on the Messiah[b] might live for his praise and glory. 13 You, too, have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed in the Messiah,[c] you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until God redeems his own possession[d] for his praise and glory.
