ABU(i)
5 having predestined us unto the adoption of sons by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
6 to the praise of the glory of his grace, which he freely bestowed on us in the beloved;
7 in whom we have the redemption through his blood, the remission of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,
8 which he made to abound toward us in all wisdom and understanding;
9 making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in himself,
10 in reference to the dispensation of the fullness of times, to gather for himself into one all things in the Christ, the things which are in the heavens, and the things on the earth;
11 in him, in whom we obtained also the inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things after the counsel of his own will,
12 that we should be to the praise of his glory who before have hoped in the Christ;
