Ephesians 3:1-6

WNT

NIV

1 For this reason I Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles--
1 For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles—
2 if, that is, you have heard of the work which God has graciously entrusted to me for your benefit,
2 Surely you have heard about the administration of God’s grace that was given to me for you,
3 and that by a revelation the truth hitherto kept secret was made known to me as I have already briefly explained it to you.
3 that is, the mystery made known to me by revelation, as I have already written briefly.
4 By means of that explanation, as you read it, you can judge of my insight into the truth of Christ
4 In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the mystery of Christ,
5 which in earlier ages was not made known to the human race, as it has now been revealed to His holy Apostles and Prophets through the Spirit--
5 which was not made known to people in other generations as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to God’s holy apostles and prophets.
6 I mean the truth that the Gentiles are joint heirs with us Jews, and that they form one body with us, and have the same interest as we have in the promise which has been made good in Christ Jesus through the Good News,
6 This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs together with Israel, members together of one body, and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus.
