EPH’SIYIM 3

1 Because of this I, Sha’ul, the prisoner of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 ha’Mashiaḥ on behalf of you gentiles –

2 if indeed you have heard of the administration of the favour of Elohim that was given to me for you,

3 that by revelation was made known to me the secret, as I wrote before briefly.

4 In reading this, then, you are able to understand my insight into the secret of Mashiaḥ,

5 which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations, as it has now been revealed by the Ruaḥ to His qodesh emissaries and neḇi’im:

6 The gentiles to be co-heirs, united in the same Body, and partakers together in the promise in Mashiaḥ through the Good News,

7 of which I became a servant according to the gift of the favour of Elohim given to me, according to the working of His power.

8 To me, the very least of all the qodeshim, this favour was given, to bring the Good News of the unsearchable riches of Mashiaḥ among the gentiles,

9 and to make all see how this secret is administered, which for ages past has been hidden in 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 who created all through 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 ha’Mashiaḥ,

10 so that now, through the assembly, the many-sided wisdom of Elohim might be known to the principalities and authorities in the shamayim,

11 according to the everlasting purpose which He made in Mashiaḥ 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 our Aḏon,

12 in whom we have boldness and access, with reliance, through belief in Him.

13 I pray therefore, that you do not lose heart at my pressures on your behalf, which is your esteem.

14 For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Aḏon 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 ha’Mashiaḥ,

15 from whom all fatherhood in the shamayim and earth is named,

16 in order that He might give you, according to the riches of His esteem by power, to be strengthened in the inner man, through His Ruaḥ,

17 that ha’Mashiaḥ might dwell in your hearts through belief – having become rooted and grounded in love,

18 in order that you might be strengthened to firmly grasp, with all the qodeshim, what is the width and length and depth and height,

19 to know the love of Mashiaḥ which surpasses knowledge, in order that you might be filled to all the completeness of Elohim.

20 And to Him who is able to do exceedingly above what we ask or think, according to the power that is working in us,

21 to Him be esteem in the assembly by Mashiaḥ 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 unto all generations, for ever and ever. Amĕn.
