¹Because of this I myself, Paul, the prisoner of the Anointed One Jesus for you the nations —

²if indeed you have heard of the administration of the favor of God which was given to me toward you,

³that by revelation He made known to me the mystery, even as I have written before in brief,

⁴by which, reading it, you are able to understand my insight into the mystery of the Anointed One,

⁵which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as now it has been revealed to His holy sent ones and to his prophets in the Spirit,

⁶that the nations are joint-heirs and a joint-body and joint-partakers of his promise in the Anointed One Jesus through the good news,

⁷of which I would be a servant according to the gift of the favor of God which was given to me according to the working of his power.

⁸To me myself, the very least of all the holy ones, was given this favor, to bring good news among the nations of the unsearchable riches of the Anointed One,

⁹and to enlighten all what is the administration of the mystery which was hidden from the ages in God, the One who created all things through Jesus the Anointed One,

¹⁰so that now may be made known to the rulers and to the authorities in the heavenly realms, through the assembly, the manifold wisdom of God,

¹¹according to the purpose of the ages, which He accomplished in the Anointed One Jesus our Lord,

¹²in whom we have the boldness and the access in confidence through the trust from Him.

¹³Therefore I implore you not to lose heart at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

¹⁴Because of this I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus the Anointed One,

¹⁵from whom every family in the heavens and on earth is named,

¹⁶that He may give you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner man,

¹⁷so that the Anointed One may dwell in your hearts through trust, rooted and founded in love,

¹⁸so that you may be fully able to grasp, with all the holy ones, what is the breadth and length and height and depth,

¹⁹and to know the love of the Anointed One which surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled to all the fullness of God.

²⁰Now to the One who is able to do above all things, super overexcessively beyond what we ask or think, according to the power which is working in us,

²¹to Him be the glory in the assembly and in the Anointed One Jesus, to all the generations of the age of the ages. Amen.
