- 1And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;Καὶ ὑμᾶς ὄντας νεκροὺς τοῖς παραπτώμασιν καὶ ταῖς ἁμαρτίαις ⸀ὑμῶν
- 2Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:ἐν αἷς ποτε περιεπατήσατε κατὰ τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ κόσμου τούτου κατὰ τὸν ἄρχοντα τῆς ἐξουσίας τοῦ ἀέρος τοῦ πνεύματος τοῦ νῦν ἐνεργοῦντος ἐν τοῖς υἱοῖς τῆς ἀπειθείας
- 3Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.ἐν οἷς καὶ ἡμεῖς πάντες ἀνεστράφημέν ποτε ἐν ταῖς ἐπιθυμίαις τῆς σαρκὸς ἡμῶν ποιοῦντες τὰ θελήματα τῆς σαρκὸς καὶ τῶν διανοιῶν καὶ ⸀ἤμεθα τέκνα φύσει ὀργῆς ὡς καὶ οἱ
- 4But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,ὁ δὲ θεὸς πλούσιος ὢν ἐν ἐλέει διὰ τὴν πολλὴν ἀγάπην αὐτοῦ ἣν ἠγάπησεν ἡμᾶς
- 5Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)καὶ ὄντας ἡμᾶς νεκροὺς τοῖς παραπτώμασιν συνεζωοποίησεν τῷ Χριστῷ— χάριτί ἐστε
- 6And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:καὶ συνήγειρεν καὶ συνεκάθισεν ἐν τοῖς ἐπουρανίοις ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ
- 7That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.ἵνα ἐνδείξηται ἐν τοῖς αἰῶσιν τοῖς ἐπερχομένοις ⸂τὸ ὑπερβάλλον πλοῦτος⸃ τῆς χάριτος αὐτοῦ ἐν χρηστότητι ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ
- 8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:τῇ γὰρ χάριτί ἐστε ⸀διὰ πίστεως καὶ τοῦτο οὐκ ἐξ ὑμῶν θεοῦ τὸ δῶρον
- 9Not of works, lest any man should boast.οὐκ ἐξ ἔργων ἵνα μή καυχήσηται
- 10For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.αὐτοῦ γάρ ἐσμεν ποίημα κτισθέντες ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ ἐπὶ ἔργοις ἀγαθοῖς οἷς προητοίμασεν ὁ θεὸς ἵνα ἐν αὐτοῖς περιπατήσωμεν
- 11Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;Διὸ μνημονεύετε ὅτι ⸂ποτὲ ὑμεῖς⸃ τὰ ἔθνη ἐν σαρκί οἱ λεγόμενοι ἀκροβυστία ὑπὸ τῆς λεγομένης περιτομῆς ἐν σαρκὶ χειροποιήτου
- 12That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:ὅτι ⸀ἦτε τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ χωρὶς Χριστοῦ τῆς πολιτείας τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ καὶ ξένοι τῶν διαθηκῶν τῆς ἐπαγγελίας ἐλπίδα μὴ ἔχοντες καὶ ἄθεοι ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ
- 13But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.νυνὶ δὲ ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ ὑμεῖς οἵ ποτε ὄντες μακρὰν ⸂ἐγενήθητε ἐγγὺς⸃ ἐν τῷ αἵματι τοῦ Χριστοῦ
- 14For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;αὐτὸς γάρ ἐστιν ἡ εἰρήνη ἡμῶν ὁ ποιήσας τὰ ἓν καὶ τὸ μεσότοιχον τοῦ φραγμοῦ λύσας τὴν ἔχθραν ἐν τῇ σαρκὶ αὐτοῦ
- 15Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;τὸν νόμον τῶν ἐντολῶν ἐν δόγμασιν καταργήσας ἵνα τοὺς δύο κτίσῃ ἐν ⸀αὑτῷ εἰς ἕνα καινὸν ἄνθρωπον ποιῶν εἰρήνην
- 16And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:καὶ ἀποκαταλλάξῃ τοὺς ἐν ἑνὶ σώματι τῷ θεῷ διὰ τοῦ σταυροῦ ἀποκτείνας τὴν ἔχθραν ἐν αὐτῷ
- 17And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.καὶ ἐλθὼν εὐηγγελίσατο εἰρήνην ὑμῖν τοῖς μακρὰν καὶ ⸀εἰρήνην τοῖς ἐγγύς
- 18For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.ὅτι δι’ αὐτοῦ ἔχομεν τὴν προσαγωγὴν οἱ ἐν ἑνὶ πνεύματι πρὸς τὸν πατέρα
- 19Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;ἄρα οὖν οὐκέτι ἐστὲ ξένοι καὶ πάροικοι ἀλλὰ ⸀ἐστὲ συμπολῖται τῶν ἁγίων καὶ οἰκεῖοι τοῦ θεοῦ
- 20And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;ἐποικοδομηθέντες ἐπὶ τῷ θεμελίῳ τῶν ἀποστόλων καὶ προφητῶν ὄντος ἀκρογωνιαίου αὐτοῦ ⸂Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ⸃
- 21In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:ἐν ᾧ ⸀πᾶσα οἰκοδομὴ εἰς ναὸν ἅγιον ἐν κυρίῳ
- 22In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.ἐν ᾧ καὶ ὑμεῖς συνοικοδομεῖσθε εἰς κατοικητήριον τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν πνεύματι
