Ephesians 1:3-14 — Legacy Standard Bible

³^aBlessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in ^bthe heavenly places in Christ, ⁴just as ^aHe chose us in Him before ^bthe foundation of the world, that we would be ^choly and blameless before ¹Him ^din love, ⁵by ^apredestining us to ^badoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, ^caccording to the good pleasure of His will, ⁶^ato the praise of the glory of His grace, which He graciously bestowed on us in ^bthe Beloved. ⁷^aIn ¹Him we have ^bredemption ^cthrough His blood, the ^dforgiveness of our transgressions, according to ^ethe riches of His grace ⁸which He caused to abound to us in all wisdom and insight, ⁹^amaking known to us the mystery of His will, ^baccording to His good pleasure which He ^cpurposed in Him ¹⁰for an administration of ^athe fullness of the times, that is, ^bthe summing up of all things in Christ, things ¹in the heavens and things on the earth in Him. ¹¹In ¹Him, we also ²^,^ahave been made an inheritance, having been ^bpredestined ^caccording to the purpose of Him who works all things ^daccording to the counsel of His will, ¹²to the end that we who first have hoped in ¹Christ would be ^ato the praise of His glory. ¹³In ¹Him, you also, after listening to ^athe word of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also ²believed, you were ^bsealed in ³Him with ^cthe Holy Spirit of promise, ¹⁴who is ¹^,^agiven as a pledge of ^bour inheritance, unto the ^credemption of ^dGod’s own possession, ^eto the praise of His glory.
