3:1  For this cause I, Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,
3:2  if ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which has been given to me in you,
3:3  how that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery (as I wrote above in a few words,
3:4  by which, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of the Christ),
3:5  which in other generations was not made known unto the sons of men as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit,
3:6  that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs and of the same body and partakers of his promise in the Christ by the gospel,
3:7  of which I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given unto me by the operation of his power.
3:8  Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of the Christ
3:9  and to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the ages has been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ.
3:10  To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the congregation {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones} the manifold wisdom of God,
3:11  according to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord,
3:12  In whom we have security and access with confidence by the faith of him.
3:13  Therefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
3:14  For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ
3:15  (of whom the whole family in the heavens and on earth is named),
3:16  that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man,
3:17  that the Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith, that ye, being rooted and grounded in charity,
3:18  may be able to well comprehend with all saints what is the breadth and length and depth and height
3:19  and to know the charity of the Christ, which passes all knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God.
3:20  Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,
3:21  unto him be glory in the congregation {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones} by Christ Jesus throughout all generations of the ages of the ages. Amen.
