By Grace Through Faith

2 And you ^[a]were ^(A)dead ^[b]in your transgressions and sins, ² in which you ^(B)formerly walked according to the ^[c]course of ^(C)this world, according to ^(D)the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit that is now working in ^(E)the sons of disobedience, ³ among whom we all also ^(F)formerly conducted ourselves in ^(G)the lusts of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the ^[d]mind, and were ^(H)by nature ^(I)children of wrath, ^(J)even as the rest. ⁴ But God, being ^(K)rich in mercy because of ^(L)His great love with which He loved us, ⁵ even when we were ^(M)dead ^[e]in our transgressions, made us alive together ^[f]with Christ—^(N)by grace you have been saved— ⁶ and ^(O)raised us up with Him, and ^(P)seated us with Him in ^(Q)the heavenly places in ^(R)Christ Jesus, ⁷ so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing ^(S)riches of His grace in ^(T)kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. ⁸ For ^(U)by grace you have been saved ^(V)through faith, and ^[g]this not of yourselves, it is ^(W)the gift of God; ^9 (X)not of works, so that ^(Y)no one may boast. ¹⁰ For we are His workmanship, ^(Z)created in ^(AA)Christ Jesus for ^(AB)good works, which God ^(AC)prepared beforehand so that we would ^(AD)walk in them.
