Ephesians 2:11-18

Revised Geneva Translation

¹¹ Therefore, remember that you, being formerly Gentiles in the flesh (the ones called “uncircumcision” by those called “circumcision” in the flesh, made with hands),

¹² that you were, at that time, without Christ; and were aliens from the commonwealth of Israel; and were strangers to the covenants of the promise; and had no hope; and were without God in the world.

¹³ But now, in Christ Jesus, you who were once far off, are made near by the blood of Christ.

¹⁴ For He is our peace. He has made of both, one, and has broken the barrier of hostility;

¹⁵ having annulled (through His flesh) the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, in order to make (in Himself) one new man from the two. And so, make peace,

¹⁶ so that He might reconcile both to God in one body by the cross, and thereby slay hostility.

¹⁷ And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off, and to those who were near.

¹⁸ For through Him we both have access to the Father, by one Spirit.
