| Holman Christian Standard (CSB) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father | 14 For this reason I kneel before the Father, |
| 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named. | 15 from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. |
| 16 [I pray] that He may grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, | 16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, |
| 17 and that the Messiah may dwell in your hearts through faith. [I pray that] you, being rooted and firmly established in love, | 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, |
| 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the length and width, height and depth [of God's love], | 18 may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, |
| 19 and to know the Messiah's love that surpasses knowledge, so you may be filled with all the fullness of God. | 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. |
| 20 Now to Him who is able to do above and beyond all that we ask or think-according to the power that works in you- | 20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, |
| 21 to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen. | 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. |
