Paul's Letter to the Ephesians, Chapter 3
{3:1} For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Messiah Yeshua on
behalf of you Gentiles, {3:2} if it is so that you have heard of the
administration of that grace of God which was given me toward you;
{3:3} how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I
wrote before in few words, {3:4} by which, when you read, you can
perceive my understanding in the mystery of Messiah; {3:5} which in
other generations was not made known to the children of men, as it has
now been revealed to his holy emissaries and prophets in the Spirit;
{3:6} that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the
body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Messiah Yeshua through
the Good News, {3:7} of which I was made a servant, according to the
gift of that grace of God which was given me according to the working
of his power. {3:8} To me, the very least of all holy ones, was this
grace given, to proclaim to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of
Messiah, {3:9} and to make all men see what is the
[1>]administration[<1] of the mystery which for ages has been hidden
in God, who created all things through Yeshua the Messiah; {3:10} to
the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God
might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the
heavenly places, {3:11} according to the eternal purpose which he
purposed in Messiah Yeshua our Lord; {3:12} in whom we have boldness
and access in confidence through our faith in him. {3:13} Therefore I
ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you, which are your
glory.
{3:14} For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord
Yeshua the Messiah, {3:15} from whom every family in heaven and on
earth is named, {3:16} that he would grant you, according to the
riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through
his Spirit in the inward man; {3:17} that Messiah may dwell in your
hearts through faith; to the end that you, being rooted and grounded
in love, {3:18} may be strengthened to comprehend with all the holy
ones what is the breadth and length and height and depth, {3:19} and
to know Messiah's love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be
filled with all the fullness of God. {3:20} Now to him who is able to
do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to
the power that works in us, {3:21} to him be the glory in the assembly
and in Messiah Yeshua to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
