Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who has blessed us in the heavenly realms
with every spiritual blessing in Christ.
For he chose us in him
before the creation of the world
to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love.
He predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ,
in accordance with his pleasure and will--
to the praise of his glorious grace,
which he has freely given us in the
One he loves
In him
we have redemption through his blood,
the forgiveness of sins,
in accordance with the
riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us
With all wisdom and understanding, he made known to us
the mystery of his will
according to his good pleasure,
which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect
when the times reach their fulfillment--to bring unity
to all things in heaven and on earth
under Christ
