Ephesians 3

For this cause, I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ, for you Gentiles:

Hujus rei gratia, ego Paulus vinctus Christi Jesu, pro vobis gentibus,

Τούτου χάριν ἐγὼ Παῦλος ὁ δέσμιος τοῦ Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν τῶν ἐθνῶν-

If yet you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me towards you:

si tamen audistis dispensationem gratiæ Dei, quæ data est mihi in vobis:

εἴ γε ἠκούσατε τὴν οἰκονομίαν τῆς χάριτος τοῦ θεοῦ τῆς δοθείσης μοι εἰς ὑμᾶς,

How that, according to revelation, the mystery has been made known to me, as I have written above in a few words:

quoniam secundum revelationem notum mihi factum est sacramentum, sicut supra scripsi in brevi,

ὅτι κατὰ ἀποκάλυψιν ἐγνωρίσθη μοι τὸ μυστήριον, καθὼς προέγραψα ἐν ὀλίγῳ,

As you reading, may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ,

prout potestis legentes intelligere prudentiam meam in mysterio Christi:

πρὸς ὃ δύνασθε ἀναγινώσκοντες νοῆσαι τὴν σύνεσίν μου ἐν τῷ μυστηρίῳ τοῦ Χριστοῦ,

Which in other generations was not known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit:

quod aliis generationibus non est agnitum filiis hominum, sicuti nunc revelatum est sanctis apostolis ejus et prophetis in Spiritu,

ὃ ἑτέραις γενεαῖς οὐκ ἐγνωρίσθη τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὡς νῦν ἀπεκαλύφθη τοῖς ἁγίοις ἀποστόλοις αὐτοῦ καὶ προφήταις ἐν πνεύματι,

That the Gentiles should be fellow heirs and of the same body: and copartners of his promise in Christ Jesus, by the gospel

gentes esse cohæredes, et concorporales, et comparticipes promissionis ejus in Christo Jesu per Evangelium:

εἶναι τὰ ἔθνη συγκληρονόμα καὶ σύσσωμα καὶ συμμέτοχα τῆς ἐπαγγελίας ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ διὰ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου,

Of which I am made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God, which is given to me according to the operation of his power.

cujus factus sum minister secundum donum gratiæ Dei, quæ data est mihi secundum operationem virtutis ejus.

οὗ ἐγενήθην διάκονος κατὰ τὴν δωρεὰν τῆς χάριτος τοῦ θεοῦ τῆς δοθείσης μοι κατὰ τὴν ἐνέργειαν τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ.

To me, the least of all the saints, is given this grace, to preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ:

Mihi omnium sanctorum minimo data est gratia hæc, in gentibus evangelizare investigabiles divitias Christi,

ἐμοὶ τῷ ἐλαχιστοτέρῳ πάντων ἁγίων ἐδόθη ἡ χάρις αὕτη, τοῖς ἔθνεσιν εὐαγγελίσασθαι τὸ ἀνεξιχνίαστον πλοῦτος τοῦ Χριστοῦ,

And to enlighten all men, that they may see what is the dispensation of the mystery which hath been hidden from eternity in God who created all things:

et illuminare omnes, quæ sit dispensatio sacramenti absconditi a sæculis in Deo, qui omnia creavit:

καὶ φωτίσαι τίς ἡ οἰκονομία τοῦ μυστηρίου τοῦ ἀποκεκρυμμένου ἀπὸ τῶν αἰώνων ἐν τῷ θεῷ τῷ τὰ πάντα κτίσαντι,

That the manifold wisdom of God may be made known to the principalities and powers in heavenly places through the church,

ut innotescat principatibus et potestatibus in cælestibus per Ecclesiam, multiformis sapientia Dei,

ἵνα γνωρισθῇ νῦν ταῖς ἀρχαῖς καὶ ταῖς ἐξουσίαις ἐν τοῖς ἐπουρανίοις διὰ τῆς ἐκκλησίας ἡ πολυποίκιλος σοφία τοῦ θεοῦ,

According to the eternal purpose which he made in Christ Jesus our Lord:

secundum præfinitionem sæculorum, quam fecit in Christo Jesu Domino nostro:

κατὰ πρόθεσιν τῶν αἰώνων ἣν ἐποίησεν ἐν τῷ Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ τῷ κυρίῳ ἡμῶν,

In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.

in quo habemus fiduciam, et accessum in confidentia per fidem ejus.

ἐν ᾧ ἔχομεν τὴν παρρησίαν καὶ προσαγωγὴν ἐν πεποιθήσει διὰ τῆς πίστεως αὐτοῦ.

Wherefore I pray you not to faint at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

Propter quod peto ne deficiatis in tribulationibus meis pro vobis : quæ est gloria vestra.

Διὸ αἰτοῦμαι μὴ ἐγκακεῖν ἐν ταῖς θλίψεσίν μου ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν, ἥτις ἐστὶν δόξα ὑμῶν.

For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Hujus rei gratia flecto genua mea ad Patrem Domini nostri Jesu Christi,

τούτου χάριν κάμπτω τὰ γόνατά μου πρὸς τὸν πατέρα,

Of whom all paternity in heaven and earth is named:

ex quo omnis paternitas in cælis et in terra nominatur,

ἐξ οὗ πᾶσα πατριὰ ἐν οὐρανοῖς καὶ ἐπὶ γῆς ὀνομάζεται,

That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened by his Spirit with might unto the inward man:

ut det vobis secundum divitias gloriæ suæ, virtute corroborari per Spiritum ejus in interiorem hominem,

ἵνα δῷ ὑμῖν κατὰ τὸ πλοῦτος τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ δυνάμει κραταιωθῆναι διὰ τοῦ πνεύματος αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν ἔσω ἄνθρωπον,

That Christ may dwell by faith in your hearts: that, being rooted and founded in charity,

Christum habitare per fidem in cordibus vestris : in caritate radicati, et fundati,

κατοικῆσαι τὸν Χριστὸν διὰ τῆς πίστεως ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν, ἐν ἀγάπῃ ἐρριζωμένοι καὶ τεθεμελιωμένοι,

You may be able to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth and length and height and depth,

ut possitis comprehendere cum omnibus sanctis, quæ sit latitudo, et longitudo, et sublimitas, et profundum:

ἵνα ἐξισχύσητε καταλαβέσθαι σὺν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἁγίοις τί τὸ πλάτος καὶ μῆκος καὶ ὕψος καὶ βάθος,

To know also the charity of Christ, which surpasseth all knowledge: that you may be filled unto all the fulness of God.

scire etiam supereminentem scientiæ caritatem Christi, ut impleamini in omnem plenitudinem Dei.

γνῶναί τε τὴν ὑπερβάλλουσαν τῆς γνώσεως ἀγάπην τοῦ Χριστοῦ, ἵνα πληρωθῆτε εἰς πᾶν τὸ πλήρωμα τοῦ θεοῦ.

Now to him who is able to do all things more abundantly than we desire or understand, according to the power that worketh in us:

Ei autem, qui potens est omnia facere superabundanter quam petimus aut intelligimus, secundum virtutem, quæ operatur in nobis:

τῷ δὲ δυναμένῳ ὑπὲρ πάντα ποιῆσαι ὑπερεκπερισσοῦ ὧν αἰτούμεθα ἢ νοοῦμεν κατὰ τὴν δύναμιν τὴν ἐνεργουμένην ἐν ἡμῖν,

To him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus, unto all generations, world without end. Amen.

ipsi gloria in Ecclesia, et in Christo Jesu, in omnes generationes sæculi sæculorum. Amen.

αὐτῷ ἡ δόξα ἐν τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ καὶ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ εἰς πάσας τὰς γενεὰς τοῦ αἰῶνος τῶν αἰώνων: ἀμήν.
