Whiston(i)
3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit, in the bond of peace.
4 One body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 One God and Father of all, who [is] above all, and though all, and in you all.
7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led a captivity captive, [and] gave gifts unto men.
9 Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended into the lower parts of the earth?
10 He that descended, is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.
11 And he hath given some, apostles: and some, prophets: and some, evangelists: and some, pastors and teachers;
12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ;
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the flight of men, the cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive:
15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, who is the head, Christ:
16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together, and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body, unto the edifying of it self in love.
