9. and to reveal for all people what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God, who created all things through Jesus Christ,
10. so that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places,
11. according to the eternal purpose which He completed in Christ Jesus our Lord,
12. in whom we have boldness and confident access through faith in Him.
13. Therefore I ask you not to lose heart at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
14. For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
15. from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
16. that He would give you, according to the riches of His glory, power to be strengthened by His Spirit in the inner man,
17. and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,
18. may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth and length and depth and height,
19. and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
20. Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly beyond all that we ask or imagine, according to the power that works in us,
21. to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
