Ephesians 1 (ESV)
1 Paul, an apostle
of Christ Jesus
by the will of God,
To
the saints who are
in Ephesus,
and are faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 Grace to you and peace from
God our Father
and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who has blessed us
in Christ
with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places,
4 even as he chose us
in him
before the foundation of the world,
that we should be holy and blameless before him.
In love
5 he predestined us
for adoption
to himself
as sons through Jesus Christ,
according to the purpose of his will,
6 to the praise
of his glorious grace,
with which he has blessed us in the Beloved.
7 In him we have
redemption through his blood,
the forgiveness of our trespasses,
according to the riches of his grace,
8 which he lavished
upon us,
in all wisdom and insight
9 making known to us the mystery of his will,
according to his purpose,
which he set forth in Christ
10 as a plan for the fullness of time,
to unite all things in him,
things in heaven and things on earth.
11 In him
we have obtained an inheritance,
having been predestined
according to the purpose of him
who works all things
according to the counsel of his will,
12 so that
we who were the first to hope in Christ
might be to the praise of his glory.
13 In him
you also, when you
heard
the word of truth,
the gospel of your salvation,
and believed in him,
were sealed
with the promised Holy Spirit,
14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance
until we acquire possession of it,
to the praise of his glory.
15 For this reason,
because I have heard
of your faith in the Lord Jesus
and your love toward all the saints,
16 I do not cease to give thanks for you,
remembering you in my prayers,
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Father of glory,
may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him,
→ 18 having
the eyes of your hearts enlightened,
