Holy Name KJV - 1769 King James Version

Ephesians 3

5 The hidden mystery, 6 that the Gentiles should be saved, 3 was made known to Paul by revelation: 8 and to him was that grace given, that 9 he should preach it. 13 He desireth them not to faint for his tribulation, 14 and prayeth, 19 that they may perceive the great love of Christ toward them.

 3:1 ¶ For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,

 3:2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:

 3:3 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,

 3:4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

 3:5 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;

 3:6 That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:

 3:7 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.

 3:8 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;

 3:9 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:

 3:10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly [places] might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

 3:11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

 3:12 In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.

 3:13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

 3:14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

 3:15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

 3:18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

 3:20 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,

 3:21 Unto him [be] glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
