Ephesians The Letter of Paul to the Ephesians CHAPTER 1
Ephesians 1:1
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are
at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus: Ephesians 1:2
2 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus
Christ.
Ephesians 1:3
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us
with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: Ephesians 1:4
4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world,
that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Ephesians 1:5
5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to
himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, Ephesians 1:6
6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in
the beloved.
Ephesians 1:7
7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins,
according to the riches of his grace; Ephesians 1:8
8 Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; Ephesians 1:9
9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good
pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: Ephesians 1:10
10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in
one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth;
even in him:
Ephesians 1:11
11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according
to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
Ephesians 1:12
12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
Ephesians 1:13
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel
of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with
that holy Spirit of promise, Ephesians 1:14
14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the
purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. Ephesians 1:15
15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love
unto all the saints,
Ephesians 1:16
16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
Ephesians 1:17
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto
you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: Ephesians
1:18
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is
the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance
in the saints,
Ephesians 1:19
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe,
according to the working of his mighty power, Ephesians 1:20
20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at
his own right hand in the heavenly places, Ephesians 1:21
21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every
name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
Ephesians 1:22
22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all
things to the church,
Ephesians 1:23
23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. CHAPTER 2
Ephesians 2:1
1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Ephesians
2:2
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world,
according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in
the children of disobedience: Ephesians 2:3
3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our
flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature
the children of wrath, even as others. Ephesians 2:4
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
Ephesians 2:5
5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by
grace ye are saved;)
Ephesians 2:6
6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places
in Christ Jesus:
Ephesians 2:7
7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in
his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. Ephesians 2:8
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is
the gift of God:
Ephesians 2:9
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:10
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which
God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:11
11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who
are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh
made by hands;
Ephesians 2:12
12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth
of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and
without God in the world: Ephesians 2:13
13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the
blood of Christ.
Ephesians 2:14
14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle
wall of partition between us; Ephesians 2:15
15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments
contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making
peace;
Ephesians 2:16
16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having
slain the enmity thereby:
Ephesians 2:17
17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that
were nigh.
Ephesians 2:18
18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. Ephesians
2:19
19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens
with the saints, and of the household of God; Ephesians 2:20
20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ
himself being the chief corner stone; Ephesians 2:21
21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple
in the Lord:
Ephesians 2:22
22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the
Spirit.
CHAPTER 3
Ephesians 3:1
1 For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,
Ephesians 3:2
2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to
you-ward:
Ephesians 3:3
3 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore
in few words,
Ephesians 3:4
4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of
Christ)
Ephesians 3:5
5 Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now
revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; Ephesians 3:6
6 That the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, and of the same body, and partakers
of his promise in Christ by the gospel: Ephesians 3:7
7 Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God
given unto me by the effectual working of his power. Ephesians 3:8
8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that
I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
Ephesians 3:9
9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the
beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus
Christ:
Ephesians 3:10
10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places
might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, Ephesians 3:11
11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:
Ephesians 3:12
12 In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.
Ephesians 3:13
13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is
your glory.
Ephesians 3:14
14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Ephesians 3:15
15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, Ephesians 3:16
16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be
strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; Ephesians 3:17
17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and
grounded in love,
Ephesians 3:18
18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length,
and depth, and height;
Ephesians 3:19
19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be
filled with all the fulness of God. Ephesians 3:20
20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask
or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Ephesians 3:21
21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world
without end. Amen.
