For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Messiah YAHUSHUA in behalf of you Gentiles,-- |
2 |
if so be that ye have heard of the dispensation of that grace of YAHUVEH which was given me to you-ward; |
3 |
how that by revelation was made known unto me the mystery, as I wrote before in few words, |
4 |
whereby, when ye read, ye can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Messiah; |
5 |
which in other generation was not made known unto the sons of men, as it hath now been revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit; |
6 |
to wit, that the Gentiles are fellow-heirs, and fellow-members of the body, and fellow-partakers of the promise in Messiah YAHUSHUA through the evangel, |
7 |
whereof I was made a minister, according to the gift of that grace of YAHUVEH which was given me according to the working of his power. |
8 |
Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach unto the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Messiah; |
9 |
and to make all men see what is the dispensation of the mystery which for ages hath been hid in YAHUVEH who created all things; |
10 |
to the intent that now unto the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places might be made known through the assembly the manifold wisdom of YAHUVEH, |
11 |
according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Messiah YAHUSHUA our Master: |
12 |
in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him. |
13 |
Wherefore I ask that ye may not faint at my tribulations for you, which are your glory. |
14 |
For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father, |
15 |
from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, |
16 |
that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that ye may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inward man; |
17 |
that Messiah may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, |
18 |
may be strong to apprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, |
19 |
and to know the love of Messiah which passeth knowledge, that ye may be filled unto all the fulness of YAHUVEH. |
20 |
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, |
21 |
unto him be the glory in the assembly and in Messiah YAHUSHUA unto all generations for ever and ever. Amen. |
