in which He did abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,

in whom also we did obtain an inheritance, being foreordained according to the purpose of Him who the all things is working according to the counsel of His will,

Because of this I also, having heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and the love to all the saints,

far above all principality, and authority, and might, and lordship, and every name named, not only in this age, but also in the coming one;

and all things He did put under his feet, and did give him -- head over all things to the assembly,

which is his body, the fulness of Him who is filling the all in all,

among whom also we all did walk once in the desires of our flesh, doing the wishes of the flesh and of the thoughts, and were by nature children of wrath -- as also the others,

in whom all the building fitly framed together doth increase to an holy sanctuary in the Lord,

to me -- the less than the least of all the saints -- was given this grace, among the nations to proclaim good news -- the untraceable riches of the Christ,

and to cause all to see what [is] the fellowship of the secret that hath been hid from the ages in God, who the all things did create by Jesus Christ,

that ye may be in strength to comprehend, with all the saints, what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height,

to know also the love of the Christ that is exceeding the knowledge, that ye may be filled -- to all the fulness of God;

and to Him who is able above all things to do exceeding abundantly what we ask or think, according to the power that is working in us,

to Him [is] the glory in the assembly in Christ Jesus, to all the generations of the age of the ages. Amen.

with all lowliness and meekness, with long-suffering, forbearing one another in love,

one God and Father of all, who [is] over all, and through all, and in you all,

he who went down is the same also who went up far above all the heavens, that He may fill all things --

till we may all come to the unity of the faith and of the recognition of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to a measure of stature of the fulness of the Christ,

and, being true in love, we may increase to Him [in] all things, who is the head -- the Christ;

who, having ceased to feel, themselves did give up to the lasciviousness, for the working of all uncleanness in greediness;

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil-speaking, be put away from you, with all malice,

and whoredom, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints;

for the fruit of the Spirit [is] in all goodness, and righteousness, and truth,

and all the things reproved by the light are manifested, for everything that is manifested is light;

giving thanks always for all things, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to the God and Father;
