Ephesians 1:9-14
New American Standard Bible
9 He [a](A)made known to us the mystery of His will, (B)according to His good pleasure which He (C)set forth in Him, 10 regarding His plan of (D)the fullness of the times, (E)to bring all things together in Christ, things [b]in the heavens and things on the earth. 11 [c]In Him we also (F)have obtained an inheritance, having been (G)predestined (H)according to the purpose of Him who works all things (I)in accordance with the plan of His will, 12 to the end that [d]we who were the first to hope in the [e]Christ would be (J)to the praise of His glory. 13 In [f]Him, [g]you also, after listening to (K)the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also [h]believed, you were (L)sealed in [i]Him with (M)the Holy Spirit of the promise, 14 who is a (N)first installment of (O)our inheritance, in regard to the (P)redemption of (Q)God’s own possession, (R)to the praise of His glory.
