| Ephesians 3 Text (WEB)
|
- For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles,
- if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me toward you;
- how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote before in few words,
- by which, when you read, you can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Christ;
- which in other generations was not made known to the children of men, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit;
- that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of his promise in Christ Jesus through the Good News,
- of which I was made a servant, according to the gift of that grace of God which was given me according to the working of his power.
- To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
- and to make all men see what is the administration of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ;
- to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places,
- according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord;
- in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him.
- Therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you, which are your glory.
- For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
- from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,
- that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inward man;
- that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love,
- may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,
- and to know Christ's love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
- Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,
- to him be the glory in the assembly and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.

|
- בעבור זאת אני פולוס אסיר המשיח למענכם הגוים׃
- כי אמנם שמעתם הנהגת חסד האלהים אשר נתן לי אליכם׃
- כי בחזון גלה לי הסוד אשר למעלה כתבתי לכם במעט׃
- ובקראכם תוכלו להכיר בזאת את בינתי בסוד המשיח׃
- אשר בדורת הראשנים לא נודע לבני אדם כאשר נגלה עתה לשליחיו הקדשים ולנביאיו ברוח׃
- להיות הגוים גם הם בני ירשתו וגוף אחד אתו וחברי הבטחתו במשיח על ידי הבשרה׃
- אשר הייתי לה למשרת במתנת חסד אלהים הנתונה לי כפי פעלת גבורתו׃
- לי צעיר הצעירים שבכל הקדשים נתן החסד הזה לבשר בגוים את עשר המשיח אשר לא יחקר׃
- ולהאיר עיני כל מה היא הנהגת הסוד הנסתר מדרת עולם באלהים יוצר הכל על ידי ישוע המשיח׃
- למען אשר תודע עתה על ידי העדה לשרים לשליטים אשר במרומים חכמת אלהים המפליאה דתכיה׃
- על פי עצת עולמים אשר יעץ במשיח ישוע אדנינו׃
- אשר פתחון פינו ממנו וקרבתנו בבטחה על יד אמונתו׃
- בעבור זאת אבקש שלא תחתו בצרותי למענכם יען כי היא תפארתכם׃
- על כן אכרעה על ברכי לאבי אדנינו ישוע המשיח׃
- אשר נקרא על שמו כל בית אבות שבשמים ושבארץ׃
- לתת לכם לפי עשר כבודו להתחזק בגבורה על ידי רוחו לאדם הפנימי׃
- שישכן המשיח בלבבכם באמונה והייתם משרשים ומיסדים באהבה׃
- למען תוכלו להשיג עם כל הקדשים מה הוא הרחב והארך והעמק והגבה׃
- וידעתם את אהבת המשיח הנעלה על כל דעת ונמלאתם את כל מלוא האלהים׃
- ולו אשר יכל להרבות גמוליו עלינו יותר מכל משאלותינו ומחשבותינו לפי הכח הפעל בקרבנו׃
- לו הכבוד בקרב הקהל במשיח ישוע לדר ודר עד עולמי עולמים אמן׃

- Hujus rei gratia, ego Paulus vinctus Christi Jesu, pro vobis gentibus,
- si tamen audistis dispensationem gratiæ Dei, quæ data est mihi in vobis :
- quoniam secundum revelationem notum mihi factum est sacramentum, sicut supra scripsi in brevi,
- prout potestis legentes intelligere prudentiam meam in mysterio Christi :
- quod aliis generationibus non est agnitum filiis hominum, sicuti nunc revelatum est sanctis apostolis ejus et prophetis in Spiritu,
- gentes esse cohæredes, et concorporales, et comparticipes promissionis ejus in Christo Jesu per Evangelium :
- cujus factus sum minister secundum donum gratiæ Dei, quæ data est mihi secundum operationem virtutis ejus.
- Mihi omnium sanctorum minimo data est gratia hæc, in gentibus evangelizare investigabiles divitias Christi,
- et illuminare omnes, quæ sit dispensatio sacramenti absconditi a sæculis in Deo, qui omnia creavit :
- ut innotescat principatibus et potestatibus in cælestibus per Ecclesiam, multiformis sapientia Dei,
- secundum præfinitionem sæculorum, quam fecit in Christo Jesu Domino nostro :
- in quo habemus fiduciam, et accessum in confidentia per fidem ejus.
- Propter quod peto ne deficiatis in tribulationibus meis pro vobis : quæ est gloria vestra.
- Hujus rei gratia flecto genua mea ad Patrem Domini nostri Jesu Christi,
- ex quo omnis paternitas in cælis et in terra nominatur,
- ut det vobis secundum divitias gloriæ suæ, virtute corroborari per Spiritum ejus in interiorem hominem,
- Christum habitare per fidem in cordibus vestris : in caritate radicati, et fundati,
- ut possitis comprehendere cum omnibus sanctis, quæ sit latitudo, et longitudo, et sublimitas, et profundum :
- scire etiam supereminentem scientiæ caritatem Christi, ut impleamini in omnem plenitudinem Dei.
- Ei autem, qui potens est omnia facere superabundanter quam petimus aut intelligimus, secundum virtutem, quæ operatur in nobis :
- ipsi gloria in Ecclesia, et in Christo Jesu, in omnes generationes sæculi sæculorum. Amen.

- For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,
- If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to youward:
- How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,
- Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)
- Which 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;
- That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:
- Whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the effectual working of his power.
- Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
- And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
- To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,
- According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:
- In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.
- Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
- For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
- Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
- That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
- That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
- May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
- And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
- Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
- Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
