because through him we have access
we both
in one Spirit unto the Father.

 and having come,

      he did proclaim good news

           peace to you the far-off and the nigh,

and might reconcile both in one body to God
through the cross, having slain the enmity in it,

the enmity in his flesh,

the law of the commands in ordinances having done away,

that the two he might create in himself into one new man,

making peace,

for he is our peace, who did make both one,
      and the middle was of the enclosure did break down.

 and now, in Christ Jesus, ye being once afar off became nigh in the blood of the Christ,

that ye were at that time apart from Christ,

having been alienated from the commonwealth of Israel,

and strangers to the covenants of the promise,

having no hope, and without God, in the world;

Wherefore, remember, that ye [were] once
the nations in the flesh,
who are called Uncircumcision by
that called Circumcision in the flesh made by hands,

 for of Him we are workmanship,
    created in Christ Jesus to good work,
        which God did before prepare, 
              that in them we may walk.    

for by grace ye are having been saved,

through faith, and this not of you, of God the gift,

not of works, that no one may boast;

that He might show,
in the ages that are coming,
the exceeding riches of His grace
in the kindness toward us in Christ Jesus,

and did raise [us] up together,
      and did seat [us] together
             in the heavenly [places] in Christ Jesus.

even being dead in the trespasses,

did make us to live together with the Christ,

(by grace ye a having been saved,)

and God, being rich in kindness,
because of His great love with which He loved us,

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 which once ye did walk according to the age of this world,

according to the ruler of the authority of the air,

of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience.

Also you being dead in the trespasses and the sins,

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

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

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

 which He wrought in the Christ,

having raised him out of the dead,

and did set [him] at His right hand in the heavenly [places],



and what the exceeding greatness
       of His power to us who are believing,
                according to the of the power of His might,

the eyes of your understanding being enlightened,
for your knowing what is the hope of His calling,
and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,

that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ,

the Father of the glory,

may give to you a spirit of wisdom

and revelation in the recognition of him,

do not cease giving thanks for you,
         making mention of you in my prayers,
