1For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles, 2If ye haue heard of the dispensation of the grace of God, which is giuen me to you warde, 3That is, that God by reuelation hath shewed this mysterie vnto me (as I wrote aboue in fewe wordes, 4Whereby when ye reade, ye may knowe mine vnderstanding in the mysterie of Christ) 5Which 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; 6That the Gentiles should be inheriters also, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the Gospel, 7Whereof I am made a minister by the gift of the grace of God giuen vnto me through the effectuall working of his power. 8Euen vnto me the least of all Saints is this grace giuen, that I should preach among the Gentiles the vnsearchable riches of Christ, 9And to make cleare vnto all men what the felowship of the mysterie is, which from the beginning of the world hath bene hid in God, who hath created all things by Iesus Christ, 10To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly [places] might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, 11According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: 12By whom we haue boldenes and entrance with confidence, by faith in him. 13Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for your sakes, which is your glory. 14For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 16That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; 17That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18May be able to comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. 20Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, 21Be prayse in the Church by Christ Iesus, throughout all generations for euer, Amen.
