3:1 For this cause I, Paul, am the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles,

3:2 if it is so that you have heard of the administration of that grace of God which was given me toward you;

3:3 how that by revelation the mystery was made known to me, as I wrote before in few words,

3:4 whereby, when you read, you can perceive my understanding in the mystery of Christ;

3:5 which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit;

3:6 that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel,

3:7 whereof 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.

3:8 To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,

3:9 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;

3:10 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,

3:11 according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus, our Lord;

3:12 in whom we have boldness and access in confidence through our faith in him.

3:13 Therefore I ask that you may not lose heart at my troubles for you, which are your glory.

3:14 For this cause, I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ,

3:15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,

3:16 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;

3:17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

3:18 may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,

3:19 and to know Christ`s love which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled to all the fullness of God.

3:20 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,

3:21 to him be the glory in the assembly and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
