MNT(i)
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are in Ephesus and to the faithful in Christ Jesus,
2 grace to you and peace from God our father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ.
4 Even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world to be holy and without blemish in his sight.
5 For in his love he predestined us (such was the good pleasure of his will) to adoption for himself as sons through Jesus Christ,
6 and to the praise of his glorious grace which he graciously bestowed upon us in the Beloved.
7 It is in him we have deliverance, the forgiveness of our trespasses, through his blood;
8 so abundantly did he lavish upon us the riches of his grace in all wisdom and understanding,
9 when he made known to us, I say, that good pleasure which he purposed in himself
10 for the government of the fulness of the ages, that all things in heaven and earth are alike should be gathered up in Christ, as Head.
11 It is he in whom we Jews also have our inheritance, having been chosen beforehand according to the purpose of Him who executes all things according to the counsel of his will,
12 that we who first hoped in Christ should be for the praise of his glory.
