Efesus 1:7-23
1:7 In him
1 we have redemption through his blood,
2 the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace
1:8 that he lavished on us in all wisdom and insight.
1:9 He did this when he revealed
3 to us the secret
4 of his will, according to his good pleasure that he set forth
5 in Christ,
6
1:10 toward the administration of the fullness of the times, to head up
7 all things in Christ – the things in heaven
8 and the things on earth.
9
1:11 In Christ
10 we too have been claimed as God’s own possession,
11 since we were predestined according to the one purpose of him who accomplishes all things according to the counsel of his will
1:12 so that we, who were the first to set our hope
12 on Christ,
13 would be to the praise of his glory.
1:13 And when
14 you heard the word of truth (the gospel of your salvation) – when you believed in Christ
15 – you were marked with the seal
16 of the promised Holy Spirit,
17
1:14 who is the down payment
18 of our inheritance, until the redemption of God’s own possession,
19 to the praise of his glory.
Prayer for Wisdom and Revelation
1:15 For this reason, 20 because I 21 have heard 22 of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love 23 for all the saints,
1:16 I do not cease to give thanks for you when I remember you 24 in my prayers.
1:17 I pray that 25 the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, 26 may give you spiritual wisdom and revelation 27 in your growing knowledge of him, 28
1:18 – since the eyes of your 29 heart have been enlightened 30 – so that you may know what is the hope of his calling, 31 what is the wealth of his glorious 32 inheritance in the saints,
1:19 and what is the incomparable 33 greatness of his power toward 34 us who believe, as displayed in 35 the exercise of his immense strength. 36
1:20 This power 37 he exercised 38 in Christ when he raised him 39 from the dead and seated him 40 at his right hand in the heavenly realms 41
1:21 far above every rule and authority and power and dominion and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.
1:22 And God 42 put 43 all things under Christ’s 44 feet, 45 and he gave him to the church as head over all things. 46
1:23 Now the church is 47 his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all. 48
